Why choose the Smeg FAB28RDRU6 freestanding fridge with ice box?
Choose the Smeg FAB28RDRU6 if you want a statement retro fridge with modern everyday cooling. Its Rust Matt 50’s Style design gives the kitchen real character, while the 270-litre capacity, 26-litre 4-star ice box, Multiflow fan cooling and LifePlus 0°C drawer make it practical for fresh food and frozen essentials. It is a strong fit for shoppers who want a right-hand-hinged, freestanding Smeg with quiet 35 dB operation, C-rated efficiency and distinctive colour rather than a standard white appliance.
Even Cooling with Multiflow Technology
The Multiflow cooling system distributes cold air evenly throughout the refrigerator, helping to maintain suitable temperature and humidity levels for food storage. An internal fan also supports consistent air circulation across the fridge compartment.
Electronic temperature control allows the internal temperature to be adjusted and monitored using the side thermostat.
LifePlus 0°C Drawer for Perishable Food
The LifePlus drawer provides a controlled temperature zone between -2°C and +3°C. This low-temperature compartment is designed to support the preservation of perishable foods such as fish, cheese and meat.
It is also suitable for frozen food that needs to thaw slowly, helping to keep items such as meat or fish in optimal condition during defrosting.
Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Storage
The dedicated fruit and vegetable drawer helps create suitable storage conditions for fresh produce while reducing the risk of contamination from other foods.
A perforated adjustable panel lets you customise the drawer’s ventilation and humidity. This optimal humidity control helps fruit and vegetables retain their natural freshness, flavour and texture for longer, while reducing food waste.
Bright and Efficient LED Lighting
Bright LED light strips are positioned on both sides of the fridge interior, providing clear illumination and improved visibility across the shelves and compartments. LED lighting is also more energy efficient and longer lasting than traditional bulbs.
Quiet Inverter Compressor
The inverter compressor reduces noise and vibration levels, helping to create a quieter and more comfortable kitchen environment.
With an SN-T climate class, the appliance is suitable for use in room temperatures ranging from 10°C to 43°C, equivalent to 50°F to 109°F.
