Electrolux 524L French Door EHE5267SC (Stainless Steel)

Terrible product, stay away – This is simply a terrible fridge that’s made in Thailand. The flap doesn’t retract properly so you can’t close the door. The ice maker leaks water and when you pull open and close the freezer drawer it feels like a flimsy toy. It looks nice but don’t be fooled as this is not a very good fridge. The motor sounds like a truck. Finally if you need… Read more

help, good luck to you as the call centre is staffed by bureaucratic Indians who are not empowered to help.

Great Fridge – I purchased this fridge to replace a 20 year old Samsung, and I love it. My main reason for purchasing was its size, as it had to fit in a relatively small fridge slot (had to be no wider than 80cms). This fridge had the best reviews for a fridge this size. I didn't really want a plumbed fridge, but now I love the ice and water features...the… Read more

water tastes great and it is great to have ice on hand all the time. I am drinking so much more water as it is so convenient. I personally like that the water is not overly icy, as I don't like my water too cold,

The fridge is spacious and well designed for storing food and this fridge had no trouble coping with the Christmas feast and left overs along side our everyday food, and the fruit and veges stay fresh for over a week.

The freezer design is great, allowing you to see and access food easily...no more lost food at the back of the freezer, which is great for storing pre prepared meals as you can see what you have left and what you need to prepare more of.

This fridge is very quiet and the only times I hear any noise is when the ice maker is depositing more ice in the bucket and refilling the ice tray or if I have placed lots of new items in the freezer after the weekly cookup

I really like the deep door storage which lets you turn those wide sauce and juice bottles sideways so you can fit more in and the deli draw which lets you keep smelly cheeses and meats separate from the other foods.

Highly recommend this fridge

I love how much I can fit in this fridge – We bought this fridge about 18 months ago, I am so happy with it, it's quiet. The only noise you hear is when the ice cubes are dropping into the tray when it needs topping up, I love the deep ice cube container, we sometimes empty it when we need to fill a small esky going out, no need to buy a bag of ice. The shelves on the doors are great… Read more

for fitting bottles, you could fit 6, 2lt bottles of Milk if you needed to in the 3 shelves. The fruit and veg drawers are great, you can adjust the moisture level to keep your fruit and veg longer, also the other slim drawers you can keep meat in them. There is just so much space in this fridge!

Everything stays lovely and cold, we had a black out from 10pm-5pm the following day, though we were out most of that day and didn't open the doors, everything stayed cold, the only thing in the freezer that started to defrost was a loaf of bread. Love the plumbed in water, only downer is the water is very cold after you fill a couple of cups of water.

Just Buy it! – Carnt fault it.....keeps food cold,and very good lay out.Very spacious inside,and love having the freezer on the Bottom. But the best feature is the water and ice! Used to buy bagged ice, and now saving a small fortune! Read some negative comments about being too noisey and uneven freezer draw. It just makes a normal fridge sound and no issues with draw. Good job Electrolux,this is a premium fridge on a beer budget! Happy Days! Show details

Really love it! – Positives: - tells you when you need to replace the filter - water tap is easy to use and has made us drink more water - ice fills up fast - good freezer space - reasonably priced - easy wipe fingerprints off the surface Negatives: - freezer door feels flimsy when you open and close it - water tap only has a small space - not suitable for low… Read more

water pressure as it sprays outside the cup - water is not VERY colder - colder than tap water but not fridge cold after the first fill (use a few cubes of ice) - wish could change the size of the ice - it doesn't fit inside the holes for most water bottles

Love this! – I did a lot of research before settling on this fridge. It costed a bit more than i had initially wanted to spend but i'm glad that i made the right choice. Out of all other fridges that were similar in size, had french doors and a water dispenser, this one had the highest energy rating. It's very quiet- i was able to sleep very well in our open… Read more

living room when we first moved in to our home and were waiting for our bed to be delivered. It is also very spacious and can easily fit food for a family of 4. All in all, a great product that i would recommend to my family and friends.

disappointed not a quality fridge – So disappointed freezer drawers kept getting stuck until the top one broke we have had ours for about two years and so disappointed not great quality shows every finger print Show details

Nice fridge freezer no complaints here – This fridge freezer is great and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking at buying. The stainless steel front is easy to clean and doesn’t leave lots of annoying marks. The bottom freezer has three decent sized draws and they all pull out easily and smoothly. The fridge is spacious and has good temperature control. We haven’t plumbed the water filter yet but that is another good feature.  Show details

Ice maker freezes up – We’ve had this fridge for 4 years now and it’s great - just one issue! The ice maker is excellent when it’s going, however if I switch it off (because the tray is full) - it seems to go into a fault mode when switched back on. I think the water in pipes freezes and blocks the flow to the tray. The only way to get it functioning again is to turn… Read more

the fridge off for at least 6 hrs. Today it starting working after a power cut. Does anyone have advice please?

Best Choice – After doing research and looking at over 15 fridges, we kept coming back to Electrolux EHE5267SA, my big problem was it didn’t come in white. Finally I decided I could put up with the SS and I’m so glad I did. It looks awesome in our kitchen. The fridge itself is awesome, the separate zones keep everything fresh and the water dispenser gets used… Read more

all the time, I’ve never drank so much water. The ice maker is genius and now when I have my Canadian Club n Dry or vodka n lemon, I no longer find empty ice trays.

I am so happy we did our research and agreed on this model. We’ve had it 2 months and I’d buy it again given the choice.

Smart and sensibly designed Fridge/Freezer – Its a well designed fridge/freezer with heaps of room plus door shelves. Everything on eye level and easy reach in the fridge section. Cold water filler allows easy drawing of water. Bottom freezer provides ice cube making facility, when 90% full, cuts off automatically. Generally quiet operation, some noise during water intake. Plenty of choices… Read more

on the controls for quick chilling, economy etc. So far no issues, happy with the unit. Check depth before ordering, to avoid any issues with its delivery.

Great spacious fridge – Very quiet fridge. Love that the ice compartment is in the freezer although it needs a better sensor as it always overflows into the rest of the freezer. The quick cooling function is awesome for drinks. So much room in the fridge itself. Only other negative is that you have to open both doors to get into fresh produce compartments.  Show details

Great chilled water and ice feature – Finding our new fridge (1monrh) excellent. Chilled on demand, ice which can be made, switched off when there is enough. Great storage space in fridge are. Freezer could be a bit bigger but manageable for a family of 3. Overall very happy, temperature is maintained - freezer very cold which is what is needed as our butlers pantry is a closed off room.  Show details

Amazing fridge. Wish we had bought it sooner! – We’ve had a lot of very expensive whitegoods over the years. This relatively cheap purchase tops them all. The fridge looks great, is very quiet and stores so much food. It’s far more convenient to have the ice dispensing into a dedicated freezer compartment than to have an ugly wide/fat/deep dispenser taking up internal fridge space and then… Read more

have water all over the floor like we used to with a crushed/cubed ice dispenser.

Water is not icy cold after the first glass but that’s ok- there’s loads of ice anyway

Very good with a couple of minor improvements to be made – Very good fridge with digital temperature showing on the control panel and lots of options to select from, eg holiday mode, ice/water off etc. it makes very good sized ice cubes in a relatively short amount of time and makes them automatically. With the water supplied directly to the fridge, there is no need to carry the water to the fridge and… Read more

refill it and this is of great convenience. The only 2 things I found that needs to be improved is that the handles are with sharp edges and we have been scratched by it when We are too close to it, especially when standing up. The other thing is that the ice water is only Icey for the first glass that comes out as it,s fresh water that gets filtered inside the fridge. So only the first glass of water gets cooled down by the filter. Once the filter is at water temperature, there is no more ice water. But there’s always the ice cubes.

Excellent product – Beebs when open... Great product fridge and features. Had it since about 2 years ago and still good as new. Only complaint is there is a fan noise emitted from it almost 24/7 so in a quiet environment you can hear it. Keeps everything fresh for longer - love it. Too big for one person- definitely a family fridge.  Show details

Perfect family fridge – This fridge is a family fridge.. very happy with this product...there is enough room for bottles , seprate sections for different stuff. A good section for frozen items as well. I love the look of the fridge. Its jist add beauty to my kitchen.. will surely recommend for a family of 4  Show details

Happy with the fridge – I spent a lot of time researching fridge freezers before selecting this one. I was after a fridge with a water dispenser, french door fridge with freezer drawers, an ice maker, and very importantly, energy efficient. This was the most energy efficient french door fridge on the market at that time. It is smart looking, with a nice finish. The… Read more

water dispenser's internal plumbing is different to typical fridge-freezers so you don't have one side of the french door that is fatter than the other. The downside is that the ice doesn't 'dispense' as such, cubes are made within the freezer section. The dream was to have a crushed ice dispenser, but you can't have everything i guess.

There is a control panel inside the fridge to select options such as the ice maker and economy mode etc. I don't notice any noise except when the ice is being made and dropping into its container.

My only issue is with the water filter. I don't like the taste of the water. My husband says its okay, but i think it tastes a bit plasticy or even cheesy. My tap water does not taste like this. As the filter gets older, i prefer the taste. Ive even bought a generic non-electrolux filter and had the same issue. Also, i note that some people in other reviews have commented that the water isn't super cold. This is true but it doesn't bother me.

I bought the fridge from Appliances Online. I waited for their sale and also found a discount code. At the time this was the cheapest place to buy it.

Overall i really like the fridge and i expect to have it for many years.

Great product – Massive freezer with separate compartments, plenty of storage in fridge with draws to separate meat and veg. Lots of easy to use functions and love the water filter and quick ice. Very easy to clean and hardly makes a sound. Very good quality product and have not had any regrets about my purchase.  Show details

LOVE THIS FRIDGE!!!! – This fridge is super quiet, keeps fruit and veg super fresh and crisp and make ice automatically for your convienance! i love how there is a control so you can turn the ice maker off or the water or both! there are also eaps of modes you can put the fridge in e.g. fast ice which has been a life saver!!! really easy to clean as there are rubber inserts/mats in all the compartments that are removeable!  Show details

Beautiful, but unbearably loud – We bought this fridge on the strength of the reviews, including a few that remarked how quiet it was. Our first delivery had a rattling compressor. Appliances Online swapped it out. The second didn't have the rattle but is still embarrassingly loud. The compressor is almost always running. Even with normal use in a cool kitchen (Melbourne). … Read more

The reviews suggesting this fridge is quiet are either not on the level or the production line is not consistent. Either way, this has been a deeply disappointing purchase.

In so many ways this fridge is perfect. It's beautiful, well designed and constructed very well. But if you have an open plan or semi open plan, or you value your peace and quiet, avoid this fridge at all costs.

Update: While I was unsatisfied with the product, both Electrolux and Appliances Online bent over backwards to resolve my concerns. Absolutely Grade A customer service. The sense I got from both companies was that there haven't been issues with this product and that we may have had some bad luck. That was persuasive, but we weren't really prepared to try again. We ended up cutting our losses and going with a different fridge which is markedly quieter, but nowhere near as premium in its finish as the Electrolux.

Love the ice and water and good design – We upgraded to this fridge when we had our kitchen renovated. Love the chilled water function and the ice maker. The size is perfect for our five person family with three big eating teenagers. (We do have a separate small upright freezer for dogfood and extras.) I like the large deli and vegie drawers, though very occasionally they get stuck and… Read more

need to be jiggled back into position.

Easy to turn functions on and off with the controller. All in all I'd say we are really happy.

Bought as reconditioned from Seconds World (saved a bomb!) it had a couple of issues which were fixed under warranty by Electrolux (wrong ice tray, cracked bottle shelf). And while it was a bit of a saga getting the right replacement for the cracked bottle shelf (with three incorrect pieces arriving) they didn't give up until I had the right one.

Good fridge, doesn's show messy fingerprints! – This has been a great fridge, especially because the outside stays pretty much finger-print free. We purchased it in 2015. The Westinghouse fridge we had before this one was really annoying to clean and the doors got dinted easily. The Electrolux has kept in really good condition. We have had no trouble with it and would buy the product again, only now I think they're no longer made in Australia which would make me reconsider a purchase.  Show details

Great fridge – Lovely fridge, very pleased with purchase. Quiet, haven't even heard the ice drop down into bucket Nice design. So far keeping perfect temps. Love that you can adjust the size of the ice cubes. Great space in the fridge. Could do with 2 wine stands as it only came with one. That's my only gripe.  Show details

good for small family..freezer is not that spacious – this is a premium fridge..luxurious..good for small family..however bigger family may need a bigger freezer..led backlight makes the fridge look very modern.very recommended for family of 3.you can change setting to eco or holiday mode to save electricity..got a white led light which is better than yellow bulb as normal fridge has  Show details

Had some issues, but very happy now – I picked this fridge because it fit my recess perfectly. It was really hard to find a french door fridge this small. I'm very happy with it. It looks and works perfectly... but there were some teething problems. The first unit I received had a blemish on one of the doors which took away from the design, which is part of why I paid a premium price… Read more

for this product. Electrolux offered a $300 credit toward another of their products (I was sure they had originally offered a $300 refund, but apparently I heard them wrong). The bigger issue was the the fridge was freezing everything. They sent a service person out and he found a wire that was not connected at the factory. He connected it, and said it might fix the problem, but to be on the safe side, he ordered a new fridge for me. That excellent service was provided by a local company sent by Electrolux, rather than by Electrolux themselves. The replacement has been working great for 6 months now.

excellent fridge – easy to use, sleek, clean, reliable and plenty of spaces. my wife love it! fully recommended to any one good for medium size family. It has multiple compartments to utilise, including space for fresh fruits and vegetables. We can buy a whole week fuits and vegetables now! In summary, A++  Show details

Never knew what I was missing – Okay so I was downsizing my home and all looked good until I checked the size of my fridge housing,.... 1cm too short, are you kidding me 1cm. So off to the shops to look at a replacement. This was the best choice in terms of layout function and power usage. Now I have cold filtered water on tap and an ice maker that never needs topping up and… Read more

lower energy costs. Maybe that 1cm was a blessing after all, because I'd never go back to the old one now I'm used to this.

Almost excellent – Fridge has great features, great controls (anyone who's pulled a frozen beer that you forgot about out of the freezer will love the drink quick-chill timer!), great space for size, easy install for water/ice makers etc BUT we live in the tropics where input water temp is high 20s - unfortunately the water chiller just doesn't quite chill to a temp… Read more

that is refreshing on a stinking hot day. That's really the only disappointment at this early stage - we still have to keep a water jug in the fridge

PERFECT FRIDGE FOR OUR NEEDS – Had a problem with a new F & P Ice Maker Fridge (as reported); Harvey Norman offered to replace it with another, no hassels! On carefully checking all similar French Door fridges with water and ice, opted for this Electrolux EHE5267 - Fantastic,! Love the compartments in the fresh food side, plenty of space for bottles on door and inside as… Read more

well as platters if needed. Water & ice worked immediately. Plenty of room in freezer for food for a couple, however, most people have another freezer elsewhere. The design is very sleek & modern and the stainless steel cabinet looks perfect in my kitchen. The low Energy rating of 368 is another reason to consider this fridge. Hardly makes a sound - just the fan which is not noisy. Cleaning looks as if it will be very easy as everything can be dismantled if necessary.
