Dean McKelvie, Product Marketing Manager, Freestanding comments: “This is a superb achievement and it is great to be highlighted by the UK consumer champion.  With the recent budget and the challenging economic times ahead many of us are going to be looking for cost-effective, good quality and energy efficient freezer capacity to store money-saving, multi-buy purchases as well as capacity to freeze down fresh foods and garden produce!  Freezers are certainly a good investment, especially ones like this with A+ energy rating, and make life easier, more efficient and contribute to saving money in the long-term.”
