367 litres of frost-free storage in a 595mm-wide freestanding cabinet, in black. This is the only freestanding fridge freezer Lamona currently make — every other Lamona refrigeration product is an integrated unit that hides behind a door — and at 2010mm tall it holds considerably more than the 60cm integrated units it sits alongside.
You cannot buy Lamona without a Howdens trade account. We have one, so you can.
Read this first — the space you need is bigger than the appliance
The cabinet itself is 2010mm high × 595mm wide × 650mm deep. But Howdens' published installation dimensions ask for 2160mm high × 695mm wide × 744mm deep — that is 150mm more height, 100mm more width and 94mm more depth than the appliance measures. Those are the figures to plan your gap around, and they are the ones we would build to.
Howdens also list "Zero Clearance" among this appliance's features, and we are not repeating that claim as a fitting instruction, because their own installation rows contradict it. If you plan a 595mm gap on the strength of the words "zero clearance" you will be disappointed. Ask us for the installation manual before you cut or build anything and we will send it.
What the capacities actually are
Howdens badge this as a 70/30 fridge freezer and publish a specification row saying so. Their own litre figures are 266 litres of fridge and 101 litres of freezer out of 367 total — which is a 72.5/27.5 split, not 70/30. We have carried their ratio row below because it is the model designation people search for, but the litres are the numbers to shop on: this is a generous fridge with a decent rather than large freezer.
The freezer is 4-star rated, so it is suitable for freezing fresh food as well as storing frozen, and it will hold its temperature for 10 hours in a power cut.
Frost free, both compartments
No Frost Multi Cooling means no defrosting either side, and the fridge and freezer are cooled separately so smells do not travel between them. There is a humidity-controlled crisper across the full width for fruit and vegetables, three glass shelves with trim, three full-length door balconies, a removable bottle rack, an ice cube tray and a six-egg tray. The interior light is LED, and there is an audible and visual open-door alarm.
The door is reversible, so it can be hung to open either way — useful in a narrow kitchen or a utility.
Running it, and where you can put it
Energy rating C, with an estimated 160kWh a year. It runs at 36dB and is Quiet Mark Certified, which is genuinely quiet for a fridge freezer this size — worth knowing if it is going in an open-plan kitchen. (For completeness: Howdens also publish an Appliance Noise Rating of C on the same page, which sits oddly next to 36dB and a Quiet Mark. We have reproduced both.)
Ambient temperature range 10–43°C. That is a wide range and it will cope with a warm kitchen, but 10°C is still the bottom of it — an unheated garage in a British winter will go below that, and the appliance is not specified to work there.
It has a fitted 13A plug and a 2.5m lead, so no electrician is needed. There is no childlock.
