Some of the Hotpoint models we've reviewed include a clever feature called active oxygen. This releases ozone molecules into the refrigerator, which decreases bacteria by up to 90% and also reduces bad smells. It can also help to keep food fresh and reduce food waste which is a major problem in the UK as 70% of household food waste is caused by over-buying or food that's past its peak before it's eaten.
Other useful features include a dairy compartment ideal for storing milk, butter and cheese, as well as an LED light that provides natural, bright illumination of the fridge and freezer sections. The controls are easy to operate and read. There's also a super cool button that quickly cools fresh food items.
This model has an automatic defrost feature that eliminates need for manual defrosting. The fridge or freezer door will sound an alarm if opened for too long. There's also a built-in dispenser of water that has been filtered, as well as a useful door alarm.
Reversible doors can be opened on either side, depending on the layout of your kitchen. A pull-out salad crisper drawer is great for storing fresh veggies, which will keep them fresher for a longer time. There are plenty of storage solutions that include baskets, shelves, and moveable racks.
Design
Hotpoint fridge freezers offer an array of innovative technology designed to keep food fresher for longer. There are many options, including no frost which ensures that air circulates throughout the appliance to prevent ice and moisture from forming and active oxygen to reduce the growth of bacteria by up to 99 percent.
The model also has two drawers for storage in the refrigerator section. The top drawer features a dial that can adjust the humidity, which means that fruits and vegetables can stay crisper longer. The bottom drawer is used for meat and fish and has an ribbed floor to ensure stability. Both drawers were designed to be more spacious than those found in some other models so they are easier to store groceries in. A freezer that is overcrowded can cause the cold air to circulate more slowly and increase the chance of heat pockets and making the appliance more difficult to use.
The refrigerator is constructed with sturdy French doors that are easy to open and close however they restrict the amount of door space available. The left door rack can accommodate six pints of supermarket milk, and the right door rack can accommodate four pints. There isn't enough space for anything else in the other doors. The top shelf of each door can be moved either way by 5.5cm. However, shorter people might have trouble reaching the shelf without stepping.
The front of the fridge cabinet includes a control panel that clearly displays the temperature as well as all the other key functions. This makes it simple to determine if there's any issue. There are some extra features that simplify life, such as the super freeze button, which lowers the temperature in the freezer quickly to preserve fresh food and the icemaker which can produce up to three kilograms per day.
Hotpoint refrigerators are backed by a one-year warranty that includes both parts and labour. If you encounter any issues with your freezer or fridge the customer service team is on hand to offer advice and support. They can also arrange for repairmen to visit your home should it be necessary.
Energy efficiency

There are fridges & freezers can make your fridge more energy efficient like lowering the temperature by a small amount (e.g. to 4 or 5 degrees warmer or colder) and removing items that will be rotten within a short time.
However, you can also do simple things like purchasing a fridge with an A+ rating, which indicates that it has been independently tested and approved to cut down on energy use. This will help you save money and make a small difference to the environment.
The energy rating of a refrigerator will be based on the amount of energy it consumes every day, as its total energy consumption per year. It is because if the fridge is being used for a long period of time, it will use more energy than if it's only being used for a short period of time. This is the reason it's crucial to check the energy label when purchasing a brand new appliance.
