Hisense KitchenFit FT5K310GSFC Upright Freezer - Black Stainless Steel

Good so far

"So far, so good. We are using the fridge/freezer as a freezer. It is in an integral garage and so is subject to environmental temperature swings. However, it does appear to hold the set temperature well.

The unit is internet enabled, but to be honest the connection and associated app aren't really much use. In fact, unless the firmware is updated on a regular basis, the devise is going to become a security weakness on the network.

In summary, good freezer, but don't bother with the internet connection."

Decent freezer with a poor 'smart' app

"Nice freezer, seems to work well and looks decent and has loads of space.

Slightly dissapointed that there's no way to see the actual temperature on the freezer itself, but bought it knowing this and on the assumption that we would be able to see the actual temp via the 'smart' app, however the app just shows the temperature the freezer is set to, not the actual temperature inside, so have had to resort to an old fashioned thermometer to make sure everything is as cold as it should be.

The app is quite poor and sends multiple messages saying (word for word) "stop convert. You have close Convert, the Fridge will transform into Freezer with a temperature of -18C, please pay attention to the storage of food""

Freezer

"Really spacious and quiet "

Good freezer

"Nice quality, best available power efficiency rating compared to alternatives "

The Monolith

"Very spacious. Time will tell if the C rating pays off. Only thing I didnt like was the lack of any external temp or mode indication unless you opened the door or used the app. Perhaps this creates a bit more space but Id prefer to see some sort of visual status just with a casual glance. Given its also matt black it rather resembles the monolith in space oddesey. Hence 4 stars"

Excellent freezer

"This is a great freezer. There are few freezers that are approved for garage and outbuilding use and fewer still that have good capacity. This one ticks all the boxes and the organisation inside is very good. It’s replaced a large chest freezer and has saved a lot of space in doing so."
