Why choose the Smeg FAB28RDRB6 fridge?
Choose the Smeg FAB28RDRB6 if you want a freestanding fridge that is as much a design feature as a cooling appliance. Its Ruby Red Matt 50’s Style finish gives it standout character, while the 244-litre fridge, 26-litre four-star ice box, Multiflow cooling and LifePlus 0°C drawer make it practical for everyday fresh food storage. It is also quiet at 35 dB(A), C-rated for energy efficiency and best suited to homes that want retro Smeg styling with useful modern cooling features.
Multiflow Cooling for Consistent Food Storage
The Multiflow cooling system distributes cold air evenly throughout the refrigerator, helping to maintain an ideal temperature and humidity level for food storage. An internal fan also supports consistent air circulation across the fridge compartment.
Electronic temperature control allows you to adjust and monitor the internal temperature using the side-mounted thermostat.
LifePlus 0°C Drawer
The LifePlus 0°C drawer provides a controlled temperature zone 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 suitable for storing frozen food that needs to thaw slowly, helping items such as meat and fish remain in optimal condition.
Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Storage
The dedicated fruit and vegetable drawer helps create suitable storage conditions for fresh produce while avoiding contamination from other foods.
A perforated panel can be adjusted to customise ventilation and humidity levels. This optimal humidity control helps fruit and vegetables retain their natural freshness, flavour and texture for longer while reducing waste.
Bright and Efficient LED Lighting
Bright LED light strips are positioned on both sides of the fridge compartment, providing clear illumination and improved visibility throughout the interior. LED lighting is also more energy efficient and longer lasting than traditional bulbs.
Iconic Chrome-Finished Interior
Rounded curves and elegant chrome details coordinate the refrigerator’s interior and exterior design. The door balconies and glass shelf profiles feature bright chrome finishes that complement the appliance’s retro styling.
Quiet Inverter Compressor
The inverter compressor helps reduce noise and vibration levels, creating a quieter and more comfortable kitchen environment.
With an SN-T climate class, the Smeg FAB28RDRB6 is suitable for operation in room temperatures between 10°C and 43°C, equivalent to 50°F to 109°F.
