Yes! At just 83.7cm tall, the COMFEE RCT87WH1(E) is designed to fit under standard UK kitchen worktops (typically 90cm high). This leaves adequate clearance for ventilation. The compact 47cm width also means it fits into tight spaces where larger appliances won’t go.

The 87L total capacity is ideal for one or two people. The fridge section comfortably holds a week’s worth of essentials including dairy, drinks, condiments, fruits, and vegetables. The freezer compartment is perfect for frozen ready meals, ice cream, and a few bags of frozen vegetables. It’s not designed for large family shops but is perfect for everyday use in small households.

40dB is exceptionally quiet—roughly equivalent to a quiet library or a soft hum. Most standard fridges operate at 45-50dB, so this COMFEE model is noticeably quieter. It’s ideal for studio flats, bedrooms, or open-plan living spaces where you don’t want appliance noise disturbing you.

Freezer-on-top (also called top-mount) means the freezer compartment is located at the top of the appliance, with the fridge section below. This traditional design puts the freezer at a convenient height for access and typically uses gravity to help keep cold air in the freezer. It’s often more energy-efficient than bottom-freezer designs for smaller units.

Absolutely! Both doors feature reversible hinges, allowing you to configure the fridge freezer to open from either the left or right side. This is particularly useful for galley kitchens or spaces where door clearance is limited. The user manual includes step-by-step instructions for reversing the doors.

As a manual defrost model, you’ll need to defrost the freezer compartment periodically—typically when ice build-up reaches about 5-7mm thick. For most users, this means defrosting every 3-6 months depending on usage. The process is straightforward: switch off, remove contents to a cool bag, and let the ice melt naturally.

The BEE (Bureau of Energy Efficiency) star rating indicates how energy-efficient the appliance is compared to others in its category. A 5-star rating is the highest possible, meaning this fridge freezer is among the most efficient in its class. Combined with the E energy class under the EU labelling system, you can expect reasonable running costs despite it being always on.
