    Door hard to open, no freezer light, noisey
    We had an equivalent Electrolux top mounted fridge for 15 years. This new one is noisier, has no light in the freezer and the door is impossible to open at times, Electrolux say to wait a minute to open the door it stuck your finger in the door seal. Ludicrous, The sliding shelves do not lock in so often come off the sliding channel. The dairy compartment has already fallen apart (after two days). Such a disappointment.

    Fewer features and lower quality
    We had an Electrolux fridge that has lasted 15 years. It had a few issues such as flimsy dairy doors but overall was a great no fuss fridge/freezer. It recently died and we replaced it with another Electrolux. EBE5002BD-R The new fridge is much lower quality. Flimsy shelves. No light in freezer compartment. Door sticks closed. Only 2 supplied shelves versus 3 in our old fridge. Tiny icemaker. Door shelves super thin plastic. Dairy door has already fallen off after a days use.

    Excellent fridge, good space and highly efficient
    Thank you so much for our new fridge, it is great, perfect for the space we have and it maximises the internal space too. I love that it is a highly efficient fridge. Delivery was prompt and well handled with our old fridge being taken away too.

    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. AdamD, 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. Kind regards, Adam from Appliances Online. AdamD, Appliances Online
