Zanussi fridge freezer reviews
In our lab tests, Zanussi fridge freezers generally score excellently for fridge and freezer temperature stability and for uniform fridge temperature, which is important as it means unwanted warmer spots won’t develop so you don’t need to store certain foods in particular places.
One model scores excellently for freezer power (the amount of food it can freeze to -18°C in 24 hours) and good for fridge power (how quickly the fridge cools to the correct temperature), but several other models score poorly on both these criteria.
Zanussi fridge freezers tend to score excellently for noise, but scores for ease of defrosting range from excellent to very poor. If you’re considering buying a specific Zanussi model, check how well it scores for a variety of criteria by visiting our fridge freezer test results.
When choosing a fridge freezer, an important factor to consider is how much it will cost to run. Fridge freezers typically account for 20% of electricity consumed by domestic appliances, so finding one that’s cheap to run could save you a bit of cash.
One of the Zanussi models we’ve tested has the cheapest annual running cost of any fridge freezer we’ve tested, at just £13 a year. The annual running costs for other Zanussi models range from £14 to £38 a year – see our fridge freezer reviews for details.
As well as testing fridge freezers in our lab, we also survey thousands of owners to find out whether they’ve had any problems with their fridge freezer. Check out our fridge freezer reliability page to find out how reliable Zanussi fridge freezers are.
