I just got it second hand. It works fine and is quieter than the newer model (fdu5) which my parents have. This is quieter than my Samsung which it replaced as well. Very happy

Its the smallest fridge with plumbed ice and water so ideal for apartments.

Only issue we had was if you push the fridge in against the back wall it can crack the tray that holds the water. This can spill in onto the floor, or ruin your floating floor.
Fridge has always maintained a good temperature, is relatively quiet and easy to clean.

Fisher & Paykel have used a noisy cheap compressor - do not buy this fridge unless you like listening to the constant buzzing of the compressor.
Their customer care centre don't care about this, they don't return calls or emails or take responsibility for the products they sell.
Very unhappy customer.

On the whole the fridge has been good. Quiet and largely problem free.... until I started to get ice build up inside the freezer.

Frost in one corner was a tell tale signal the door seals weren't working. When I put a battery powered lantern inside the freezer there where 2-3 mm gaps across half the door. Wow! This is from fridge that's only 4 years old! We've had fridges with seals that have lasted 10 - 20 years. Where are they getting them from? Someone's backyard??

My Fisher & Paykel fridge is amazing. I have had it about 3 years now & have had no problems. Glass is very strong. The compartment system works great for our family. Plenty of storage space. User friendly. de-odouriser system is great. Shelves are adjustable to suit tall bottles. It did cost a bit more than other brands but it was well worth it.

I bought this after doing research on reliability and it had some good reviews. Unfortunately the first fridge I bought didn't actually work AT ALL! So I called for a service under warranty. Great that they have a 24/7 call centre with real people, but would be better if they spent the money on more technicians - the earliest they can come and look at this lemon was a week later. Luckily the initial purchase was within the cooling off period so I returned it (to 2nds World) and got another one from the Good Guys, as it was the only fridge on the market that met all my needs. Second time around all is working well after a couple of months and I'm happy with the fridge, just hope I don't need to call on F&P for repairs.

No, it doesn't maintain good temperature at all. Its nearly christmas and my fridge doesnt work. Will not buy fisher and paykel again!! It's loud at times. The only positive thing is its easy to keep clean. What is the good of that if the fridge doesnt work at all.

This is a replacement supplied by Fisher and Paykel (under guarantee)when the previous model expired in under two years after three visits by eastern electrics who replaced various parts and eventually by an engineer direct from fisher & paykel. This model is irritatingly noisy during its operational cycle. Again after three visits. Eastern electrics and ourselves are at a loss as to a remedy for the noise. I would suggest that prior to buying a F&P fridge/freezer you ask to listen to the noise(All refrigeration equipment I have purchased in the last 40 years has been considerably quieter than this premium brand.).If you are in the NG23 area you are welcome to call and listen

i am not happy with fridge despite us choosing this from the choice magazine as one of the best fridges. the door won't shut, it needs to be shut manually
i hate this
the company said that there was not free guarantee for this
that this is the way the fridge is. we tried adjusting the feet to level it etc etc. but nothing has worked until this moment.
not happy

Previously owned a f&p top mount and loved the quality I found it reliable so after about 8yrs when I moved houses, I upgraded and left it for the tenants and bought a bottom mount f&p. The configuration/ layout works for me.... And it looks great!

Bought one of these in 2006. Still going strong. Consistent and reliable performance. Great interior design is highly configurable, and everything can be taken out and taken apart when it comes to cleaning. We'll have to replace the seal soon as it's showing signs of getting a little elderly.
