This article is for someone that is thinking of buying a Hotpoint American fridge freezer. There are 6 versions to choose from and I will give you an easy 7 point list of what to look for in the different units.
1. Outlay
They really are not too expensive if you compare them to other side by side fridge freezers. They range in price from around 690GBP for the Hotpoint MSZ 801 to 1000GBP for the MSZ 806 DF. If you are looking for one with a water and ice dispenser then the least expensive one is the Hotpoint MSZ 802 DF, which goes for approximately 850GBP.
2. Size
The external measurements of all the units are as follows:- height: 177.4cm., width: 90.2cm., depth: 68cm (75.2cm with the handles), which are important to know for determining whether it can fit in your house and look right in your kitchen. As with all side by side fridge freezers you need to leave an additional 2cm. all around the unit.
3. Storage Capacity
Each of the 6 units has the same net storage capacity for the fridge – 335 litres. However the net freezer capacity varies depending on whether it has a water and ice dispenser. With a dispenser, their net freezer capacity is 187 litres and without one it is 206 litres. Even the 187 capacity is much bigger that a typical freezer that comes with a fridge freezer.
4. Colours
Hotpoint gives you a choice of 4 colours: Stainless steel, black, white and silver. The Hotpoint MSZ 802 is stainless steel, MSZ 806 DF is black, MSZ 802 is white and the MSZ 803 DF is silver.
5. Water and Ice Dispenser
With the exception of the Hotpoint MSZ 801 and 802 all units have a water and ice dispenser. This is one of the features that really makes it worth while having an American fridge freezer.
6. Energy Ratings
This is an important issue for both you and the ecosystem when you are running such a big appliance. All Hotpoint side by side fridge freezers have an ‘A’ ranking with an annual energy consumption of 507 Kwh.
7. Extra Features
* Super Cool will reduce the temperature of the refrigerator to its lowest point. This is helpful following a big shop when the door is left wide open for a lengthy amount of time.
* Super-fast freezing takes the freezer down to very low temperatures. This is useful when you want to freeze some fresh food rapidly to preserve its flavour.
* Holiday setting is used to keep your empty fridge running at 12 degrees Celsius to save energy while you are away. The freezer will function as usual.
* Digital Display is easy to read and gives you an exact reading of fridge and freezer temperatures.
