    Good size for family of 4
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve had this for a year and no issues with it. I did find when I first got it the door suction was quite hard at times so when I tug it open, it wouldn’t. But over the year, I’ve not experienced that anymore. But I do like the seal was tight.

    Great Fridge/freezer
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have had the 496L fridge for almost 6 months, and are very impressed. It is so quiet and keeps the food fresh. We didn't realise how our old fridge had deteriorated until we started using the new one. And I think our electricity bill has reduced as well.

    Maximum capacity for a standard fridge cavity
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This fridge holds way more than my previous fridge - 496L

    Questions & answers

    Would it fit in a cabinet 815mm wide? Mo3039 · 2025-10-11
    Hello there, Electrolux recommends a minimum cavity width of 856mm for this model - higher if its being placed up against a wall. If you take a look at the dimensions guide we've attached under the Manuals section, there's more information in there. If you'd like us to recommend some fridges that would be ideal for your cavity, please don't hesitate to phone us anytime on 1300 000 500. Cheers, Adam from Appliances Online.

    How well do fridge magnets work on the steel front? How about on the black model? Would like to know which of these Electrolux models is best for fridge magnets, if at all? Thanks. Tecinterest · 2024-12-10
    Hello there, both of these models have a stainless steel door - so refrigerator magnets can be used on both (with the same effect). Hopefully this helps =) Cheers, Adam from Appliances Online. AdamD, Appliances Online
    Does it have metal drawer slides in the freezer? Alex · 2024-10-19
    Hi Alex, it does. Electrolux Home Products advise this model has a telescopic basket/drawer runner system in the freezer. Kind regards, Adam from Appliances Online. AdamD, Appliances Online
    Does it come left side hinge Mary · 2024-09-02
    Hi Mary, unfortunately not in this colour. However, the matte black version of this refrigerator does come in a left-hinged variant: Electrolux 496L Ultimate Taste 500 Bottom Mount Refrigerator Left Hinged Matte Black EBE5007BD-L.
