Hoping someone may have some ideas but I''m looking for a Fridge freezer (freestanding) with a smaller fridge than freezer section.
I've managed to source one make but am just wondering if I've missed something...or Google has!

I have a fridge and a freezer one on top of the other, two motors, so I could chose what sizes I wanted. When the children were small the fridge was on the bottom, so that they could serve themselves for milk extra and when they were older I changed them round enabling me to get to the freezer more easily.
On holiday I stop the fridge but keep the freezer going.

Mine is 50/50 and I much prefer it that way. I also have under-the-counter separate fridge and freezers and I use every space.

Hi Dee1012 Beko make 40/60 fridge freezers for around £420. Look up www.ao.com

One in the kitchen and the same in the garage, both 50:50.

Most websites selling white goods give the exact sizes so you can see whether they are 50/50 or one is larger than the other. But also take care on the overall size. Check the measurements, height and width, because I nearly bought a fridge freezer which was too big. Just realised in time and cancelled the order for a smaller one. It was both too high and too wide!

I have a big fridge/ freezer. 50/50 split. But I also have a chest freezer in the utility room.

Thanks all for the replies... I've opted for the Beko.

I've always had a 50/50 split before but think the smaller fridge, larger freezer will be better for my needs.

I have a Beko - Harvest Fresh 50/50. I have, previously, always had a larder fridge and tall matching freezer. Kept my larder fridge when I first moved into this flat but only had a tiny under the counter freezer. Although this F/F gives me smaller fridge area it is a bit bigger on freezer space. I have kept the small (Beko) freezer in my garage for some extra storage.
