At a glance

Its strengths are frost free operation, a reversible door, multi air flow and a strong 5 star energy rating.

Things to consider
Its 202L total capacity is better suited to smaller households, so larger families or shoppers who store lots of fresh food and frozen items may need a bigger model.
Apartment suitability score
9/10 - compact 202L size, top mount layout and reversible door make it a strong fit for smaller kitchens.
Family size fit
Best for 1-2 people
Energy efficiency rating
9/10 - strong 5 star energy rating for lower-running-cost appeal.
Fresh food storage flexibility
7/10 - useful fresh food layout with 148L fridge space, 2 glass shelves and a humidity control crisper, but capacity is still modest.
Key benefits
- 202L total capacity: Compact overall storage suits smaller households without taking up the space of a larger family fridge.
- 148L fridge compartment: Gives everyday fresh food more room and keeps frequently used items easy to access.
- 54L top freezer: Provides separate frozen food storage for staples, leftovers and ice without dominating the cabinet.
- Reversible door: Makes placement easier in tighter kitchens by letting the door swing suit different room layouts.
- Frost free design: Reduces the need for manual defrosting and helps keep maintenance simpler.
- Multi air flow: Circulates cold air through the cabinet for more even cooling across shelves.
- Humidity control crisper: Helps organise fruit and vegetables in a dedicated drawer.
- 5 star energy rating: Delivers strong energy efficiency for its class with a 5 star rating.
Q: How much freezer space does this top mount fridge actually have
A: The freezer section holds 54L, while the fridge section gives you 148L for everyday fresh food. That split suits buyers who keep a modest amount of frozen food, not households that rely on large bulk-freezer storage.
Q: Can the door be changed to open from the other side
A: Yes. This CHiQ fridge comes right-hinged, but the door is reversible so it can be set to open from the other side if that suits the kitchen layout better. It is worth deciding the swing direction before final placement.
Q: Does the frost free design mean no manual defrosting at all
A: Yes. CHiQ CTM201NB5E is frost free, so it is designed to prevent the ice build-up that leads to regular full defrosting. You still need normal cleaning and to keep the door sealing properly, but not routine manual defrost cycles.
Q: Is this fridge suitable if you mostly buy fresh food
A: Yes. With 148L of fridge space and 54L of freezer space, this layout gives more room to fresh groceries than frozen items. It suits smaller households that shop for chilled food often, rather than storing a large frozen backlog.
Q: What does the 5 star energy rating mean in practice
A: CHiQ CTM201NB5E has a 5 star energy rating. A higher rating generally means lower running costs than a similar 202L top mount fridge with a lower rating, especially in an all-day kitchen appliance that stays on continuously.
Q: Will this fridge need plumbing for water or ice
A: No. This fridge has no dispenser and it is not plumbed, so it does not need a water connection for installation. If you want chilled water or automatic ice from the door, this model does not offer those features.
