Great fridge
Great fridge. Working well so far, and looks really stylish in our kitchen. We love the size, especially all the extra freezer space. A great upgrade for us.

Great fridge, no regrets
This fridge is really well designed for meeting the needs of family. Ample storage for large bottles without having to lie them flat. My fruit and veg are lasting so well too! Great product overall by fisher and Patel!

Big
I love my new fridge. It's bigger than my old fridge, which means I can fit way more stuff in it. Very handy.

Great fridge but wish there were handles
Great fridge, gets things cold very quickly but wish there were handles that made it more intuitive to open. Also thought this fridge came with an ice bin but it doesn’t.

Great Fridge,
Plenty of interior space, easy access to both fridge and freezer. Really like the two separate spaces in the freezer. Fresh food crisper drawers keep fruit and veges fresh and crisp much longer than expected. Exterior appearance is easy to keep clean and always looks good.

At a glance
This 511L French door refrigerator is a strong fit for households that buy plenty of fresh food and want easy access to everyday groceries, platters and produce. Its key strengths are practical fridge-first storage, flexible shelving and stable cooling with rapid chill functions. A limitation is that the 140L freezer section is better for moderate frozen storage than bulk freezer-heavy use.

- Fresh Food Organisation
- Entertaining Platters
- Everyday Kitchen Use
Where it works best
- Family Home
- Open-Plan Kitchen
- Entertaining Kitchen
- Main Household Kitchen
Who it’s for

- Couples Needing Flexible Fridge Space
Things to consider
The 140L freezer section is smaller than the fridge compartment, so it suits households prioritising fresh food over large-volume frozen storage.
Family suitability score
8/10 - Well suited to family households with a roomy 511L total capacity and practical fridge-first layout.
Entertaining suitability
8/10 - French doors and flexible shelves make it easier to access drinks, platters and shared food.
Fresh food storage performance
9/10 - Strong fresh-food focus with 371L fridge space, dual humidity drawers and consistent cooling control.
Energy efficiency vs category
9/10 - A 5 star energy rating and 312kWh annual energy use indicate strong efficiency for a 511L French door fridge.
Kitchen space fit
Best for medium to larger kitchens where a full-size French door layout suits regular family use.
Key benefits
- French door layout: Lets you open one side at a time for easier everyday access and clearer organisation.
- 371l fridge capacity: Provides generous space for fresh groceries, drinks and meal-prep items.
- 140l freezer capacity: Keeps frozen essentials separated below the main fridge for less frequent access.
- Adjustable glass shelves: Makes it easier to reconfigure storage for tall bottles, platters and changing grocery loads.
- Dual humidity drawers: Helps organise fruit and vegetables in dedicated compartments for everyday fresh-food storage.
- Activesmart cooling: Maintains consistent cooling to better support everyday food preservation.
- Rapid cool and fast freeze: Quickly brings newly added groceries down to temperature to help protect food quality.
- 5 star energy rating: Delivers strong efficiency for this category, with estimated annual energy consumption of 312kWh.
Q: Is the freezer large enough for bulk frozen food storage?
A: No. RF505ANX1 has 140L of freezer space, so it suits frozen essentials and regular weekly use better than freezer-heavy households. If most of your shopping is frozen, the fridge-first layout may feel limiting.
Q: Will this fridge suit a household that buys mostly fresh food?
A: Yes. RF505ANX1 gives 371L to the fridge and 140L to the freezer, so the storage balance clearly favours fresh groceries, drinks and produce. It is a better fit for fresh-food routines than for long-term frozen stockpiling.
Q: Can the shelves be moved for tall bottles or platters?
A: Yes. The adjustable glass shelves let you rework the fridge space for taller bottles, larger containers and wide serving platters. That flexibility is useful when the weekly shop changes, but it does not increase the overall 371L fridge capacity.
Q: Does opening one door at a time make daily use easier?
A: Yes. The French door layout lets you open one side for quick access instead of exposing the full fridge cavity every time. That suits everyday items well, though wide trays and platters still need enough clear shelf space inside.
Q: What does ActiveSmart cooling do in everyday fridge use?
A: ActiveSmart is designed to maintain consistent cooling as the fridge is opened and restocked through the day. RF505ANX1 also adds rapid cool and fast freeze for newly added groceries, but these features do not turn the smaller freezer into bulk storage.
Q: Is the 5 star energy rating good for this size fridge?
A: Yes. RF505ANX1 has a 5 star energy rating with estimated annual energy consumption of 312kWh, which is strong for a 511L French door fridge. A higher star rating generally means lower running costs than a similar 511L fridge with a lower rating.
