We've gone for frost-free this time, defrosting was just too much hassle.
We'd had an AEG before and frankly it was not as good as we had expected. My
wife had a clear idea on what she did and did not want from her new f/f and
we looked at em all, over and over! Our initial pref was to go for a Bosch
or Siemens (not exactly top of the market but all we could afford) and they
did not impress. The plastic drawers etc are no better quality, far too thin
and brittle, we do not want wire, the B and S bottle rack was plastic, short
and only held two bottles.
So power consumption etc all being equal do not bother with them.
By the way, trawl the web, we saved nearly £100 buying at the Co-op online
of all places!
