Bring iconic retro style to your kitchen with the Smeg FAB28RDBB6 50’s Style fridge, featuring a blackboard finish, ice box and practical cooling
Why choose the Smeg FAB28RDBB6 freestanding fridge?
Choose the Smeg FAB28RDBB6 if you want a statement fridge that is practical as well as playful. Its writable blackboard-style door turns the 50s-style design into a useful space for notes, menus or lists, while the 270 litre capacity suits everyday fresh food storage. The 26 litre ice box handles frozen essentials, and the LifePlus 0°C drawer, fan-assisted cooling, LED lighting and automatic fridge defrost make it a strong fit for design-led kitchens that still need modern Smeg refrigeration features.
Iconic 50’s Style Design
The Smeg FAB28RDBB6 50’s Style freestanding fridge combines an unmistakable retro look with practical food storage and reliable cooling performance. Its rounded curves, blackboard decorated special glossy finish and refined chrome details make it a distinctive addition to a kitchen or living space.
Measuring 1530 x 601 x 728 mm, this 60cm freestanding refrigerator features a right-hand door hinge and an internal ice box for conveniently storing frozen food.
Practical Fresh Food Storage
The fruit and vegetable compartment provides suitable storage conditions for fresh produce while helping to prevent contamination. Optimal humidity control allows fruit and vegetables to retain their natural freshness for longer, helping to reduce waste while preserving flavour and texture.
The drawer includes an adjustable perforated panel, allowing the compartment’s ventilation and humidity levels to be customised.
LifePlus 0°C Drawer
The LifePlus 0°C drawer is a controlled-temperature zone operating between -2°C and +3°C. It is designed to support the longer preservation of perishable foods such as fish, cheese and meat.
The low temperature is also particularly suitable for storing frozen food that needs to thaw slowly, helping meat or fish remain in optimal condition.
Even Multiflow Cooling
The fan supports an even distribution of air throughout the refrigerator. Smeg’s Multiflow cooling system distributes cold air evenly, helping to maintain suitable temperature and humidity conditions for food storage.
Clear LED Interior Lighting
Bright LED light strips are positioned on both sides of the fridge to provide clear illumination and improved visibility throughout the interior. LED lighting is also more energy efficient and longer lasting than traditional bulbs.
Electronic Temperature Control
The side-mounted thermostat allows the internal temperature to be adjusted and monitored electronically or manually, giving you convenient control over the fridge’s cooling conditions.
Quiet Inverter Compressor
The inverter compressor reduces noise and vibration levels, helping to create a quieter and more comfortable kitchen environment.
With a climatic class of SN-T, the appliance is suitable for use at room temperatures between 10°C and 43°C (50°F to 109°F).
Elegant Chrome Finishes
Rounded curves and chrome details coordinate the refrigerator’s interior and exterior styling. The door balconies and glass shelf profiles feature bright chrome finishes that complement the appliance’s retro design.
Smeg FAB28 coloured refrigerators have become recognised for their distinctive style and creativity. The renewed interior, iconic details and practical storage features make the FAB28RDBB6 a characterful yet functional choice for everyday food preservation.
