Looking for an integrated fridge freezer that you can hide behind your fitted kitchen cabinets? Our experts test integrated (or built-in) fridge freezers to help you buy the best.
The best integrated fridge freezers cool and freeze food quickly, helping food last in a better state for longer. At the other end of the scale, the worst ones struggle to cool and can't keep food safely chilled and frozen when your kitchen heats up and cools down.
Our reviews reveal the models that use energy efficiently and cool and freeze well. Read on for all the advice you need to choose a model.

To keep our reviews impartial, we buy all the appliances we test from a regular shop, just as our members would. We don't accept freebies from PR companies or manufacturers.
We then put all the fridge freezers – integrated, freestanding and American – through a series of challenging trials in our test laboratory. Each test is designed to mimic how you might use your fridge freezer in real life.
We routinely review our tests to ensure that we stay on top of market developments or changes in consumer expectations of appliances over the years.
Our reviews make it easy to compare your choice of models side-by-side – so you get the best model for your money.
At Which?, we always go the extra mile. Our lab tests of integrated fridge freezers include measurements of how much useable space you'll actually have (often not the same as claimed by the manufacturer), how much you'll spend on energy over the years and how long it takes for food to get down to a cold enough temperature to keep it safe to eat.

We've sifted through all the current deals on fridge freezers for this month so that you don't have to. Discover the best fridge freezer deals.
You can buy models with various fridge-to-freezer ratios, so make sure you pick a size that will suit your fresh and frozen food needs. Most are similar in size to freestanding models – where the fridge is slightly larger than the freezer – but some have a large fridge and a relatively small freezer.
If you’re replacing an existing integrated fridge freezer, you’ll have to choose one with the same fridge-to-freezer proportions as your old one.
Built-in models are usually designed to fit inside a standard 60cm-wide kitchen cupboard unit. They’re usually 55cm deep. Heights range from about 100cm to 200cm.

Integrated fridge freezers cost from around £250 to upwards of £2,000.
Cheaper brands (that make appliances for £500 and under) include Beko, Candy, Fridgemaster, GoodHome, Hisense, Hoover, Hotpoint, Indesit, Kenwood and Logik.
Increasing your budget to £900 means you'll also be able to pick from a fair number of Bosch, Haier, Liebherr, Samsung and Siemens models.
Liebherr, Miele, Neff and John Lewis make models at the premium end of the price spectrum.
The average cost of an integrated fridge freezer is higher than a freestanding model.
