Manual of product FAB28YG1
Editorial note
The Smeg FAB28YG1 refrigerator stands out for its retro and modern design, embodied by its elegant yellow color that adds a touch of originality to any kitchen. With a net capacity of 222 L for the refrigerator and 26 L for the freezer, it offers generous storage space, ideal for the daily needs of a family. Additionally, its energy class A++ and annual consumption of 180 kWh make it an energy-efficient choice, helping to reduce electricity bills. However, this model has some drawbacks. The freezer capacity is relatively low, which may not be suitable for large families or those who need to store large quantities of frozen food. Furthermore, the refrigerator does not have a No Frost system, requiring manual defrosting, which can be tedious. The lack of child safety features is also a point to consider for households with young children. The user experience is enhanced by practical features such as automatic defrosting and interior lighting, making daily use easier. The reversible doors add installation flexibility, but it is unfortunate that the noise level of 40 dB may be perceived as slightly high in open living spaces. Finally, while the provided documentation is adequate, additional information on maintenance and manual defrosting would be beneficial for less experienced users. Overall, the Smeg FAB28YG1 is a refrigerator that combines style and functionality, but could be improved with a few practical adjustments.Score details
