Swan Retro is an affordable brand that is a specialist in beautiful vintage-style kitchen appliances and homeware. The fridge freezers are available in a variety of colours to fit any kitchen. The model we tested was a soft pastel blue, but you can also choose from cream, grey green, red and.
The exterior of the refrigerator is decorated with chrome handles and an embossed Swan Logo. The interior is sleek with glass shelves as well as a wine rack and a handy drawer to store chilled drinks. The door is equipped with two racks with narrow sides that are perfect for butter and juice cartons. The refrigerator uses thermoelectric exchange technology instead of compressor cooling. This makes it quieter than usual refrigerators, with only the slightest hum when it is operating.
The total capacity of the refrigerator is 295 litres. The fridge compartment holds 209 litres, while the storage freezer that is mounted on the bottom holds 89 litres. The refrigerator isn't completely free of frost, and requires manual defrosting at times to ensure its performance is at its best. The drawer for chilled beverages is a nice feature, and the crisper drawer is spacious enough to store fresh fruits and vegetables.
We tested the fridge's energy efficiency, and it earned an A+ rating. This is the lowest efficiency we've ever measured and is a great result for an appliance of this price. It was also quite quiet with a noise rating of 42 decibels. It's still a bit louder than some of the less expensive models we tested, but much quieter than older refrigerators that produced a lot more noise.
Swan has kept the design simple and simple, which is great when it comes to user-friendliness. The fridge has an LED bulb light and a rotary thermostat control for temperature. The temperature was stable. The top and middle shelves were only just a few degrees on either side of the average, whereas the salad drawer was at 2oC. However we did notice that it was very warm at the back and could be a problem in more hot rooms.
