    Overview

    The Retro Top Mount Fridge from CHiQ provides 202 litres of usable capacity, with clever cooling solutions to ensure your food and beverages are optimally stored. Finished in a classic white colour with a retro look, this unit is a stylish addition to any kitchen.

    The Multi Air Flow System ensures chilled air reaches every part of the compartment consistently, keeping all your contents fresh. Frost-free means there’s no need to manually defrost, so you can save time. The elegant tempered glass shelves can be adjusted to suit your needs, allowing you to fit tall or oddly shaped items comfortably.

    The 202L CHiQ Retro Fridge combines fuss-free functionality with eye-catching style.
    Frost Free System

    With this system there is no need to manually defrost the fridge, saving you the stress and time of defrosting.

    Multi Airflow

    The multi-airflow system is designed for freshness. It helps to consistently regulate the fridge's temperature, ensuring your food stays fresher for longer.

    LED lighting

    Strategically-placed LED lighting throughout the refrigerator brightens every corner to help you find what you need. LED lighting lasts longer and also emits less heat, making it more efficient than incandescent lighting.

    Vegetable Crisper

    At the base of the fridge you’ll find the large crisper drawer, for storing your fruit and vegetables.

    CHiQ 202L Retro Top Mount Fridge CRTM196NW
    Our fridge of over 20 yrs died unrepairable, purchased the CHiC retro fridge, and although much smaller then our old one, it is perfect for two people. Been using about 3 weeks, is very compact but well thought out, the freezer is not as large as our old fridge, but find enough room with careful packing. But I can say, this is the quietest fridge I have ever witnessed. We live in a quiet regional area, and still have to listen carefully for the fridge. Dealing with Appliences Online was a breeze, next day delivery, installed and the old fridge removed. Very happy indeed.

    Love it. Looks great. Works well. Would Recommend
    I thought this fridge might look too small in my medium size kitchen but not at all. It looks great, it's oozing with character. It is spacious inside and keeps the veggies super fresh. My adult children are impressed and would like on too!

    Questions & answers

    Is this fridge magnetic? Aleena · 2022-01-16
    Good Morning, Thank you for this product question, these fridges will have a hard plastic outer cover that will not support a magnet. I hope this information will assist you when shopping here with us at Appliances online. Colin Jones, Appliances Online
    How loud is the motor. I live in a studio and am worried about the sound Anonymous · 2021-12-07
    Good Evening, Thank you for this product question, sorry to say that most suppliers are unable to provide decibel ratings as there are too many variables such as the flooring type & location these will all have an effect on the fridge. Most fridges today are fairly quiet the vibration on a tile floor can make noise when the fridge cools maybe the option here is a carpet square under the fridge will absorb that extra vibration. I hope this information will assist you when shopping here with us at Appliances Online. Colin Jones, Appliances Online
