A decent, huge fridge with a water dispenser always keeps things cold! The only issue is that the LED light stops working after 5 years but it is replaceable. Show details

Do Not buy Hisense HR6BMFF514SW 514L Bottom Mount Fridge door not earthed – The Hisense HR6BMFF514SW 514L Bottom Mount Fridge door is not earthed Do Not buy Hisense 514L This is very dangerous! A shock every time you open the door. The reason Im getting shocked is because Fridge door is not earthed some part of the frame. Since the frame is not grounded

Love it but door shelves keep cracking – I love this fridge. It is a great item but I am constantly having my door shelves crack (drink and condiment holders). I've had to replace at least 2 of them. Everything else in this fridge seems to be really strong but the thin clear plastic they have used for the door shelves just aren't good enough. Show details

stopped cooling after 3 years 4 months – Fridge was good while working but stopped working about 4 months after the warranty period ended. Had a fridge repairman look at it and said it wasn’t fixable as it was the compressor. Paid about $1000 for it, a fridge should last more than 3 years. My mum has a fisher and paykal fridge for 15 years no dramas. I just upgraded and swore to never go Hisense again. Show details

Fridge does not seem to circulate cool air very well – Background: Replaced our old fridge under the special replacement program ran by the NSW Government, ordered our fridge in July 2020 and eventually got our new fridge around October 2020. About the fridge: The Fridge is set to 4 degrees and the freezer to -20. I find that items in the middle of the fridge are freeing, and items in other areas… Read more

well just dont seem to be as cold as they should be, especially if they are toward the front of the shelf. Whilst our fridge is often full (which is what you should be able to do with a fridge) there is still plenty of room for airflow due to the shape/height of the items.

Freezer section seems to work well.

When compared to our previous fridge where nothing seemed to get frozen i find this quite annoying.

The other thing i do not like about the fridge is that the space on the door for 2L bottles is limited to about 2, with the water dispenser blocking the rest of the space.

The positive about the fridge is the water dispenser, the freezer (draw format) so you can see what you have and the digital control panel.

So overall, not sure i can recommend the fridge to anyone as i am not sure if our fridge is faulty or if others are having the same issue.

Fridge less than 2 year old and stopped working altogether – Loved the fridge, no issue to begin with, but less than 2 years after it stopped working, both sections do not work, wasted a lot of groceries because of this.  Show details

Warranty Claim – The fridge started life well and just under being 2 years old the fridge section stopped working all together. Weirdly though the freezer is still working. I have called and made a claim and told that someone would come out and look at it, guess what I'm still waiting. Being without a fridge is very inconvenient, especially when the fridge isn't really that old.  Show details

Good fridge – We got this fridge over 12 months ago and it has been a good upgrade for us. We love the addition of the cold water dispenser and the control of the degrees of both fridge and freezer! Show details ·  1

Looks good lots of issues – I purchased my fridge on April 24 and two weeks after, the lights are flickering. Also, it's not cooling. I was starting to wonder my food was constantly going bad. I noticed that it says 4 degrees on the temperature gauge, but when I opened the fridge, I could barely feel it cooling. Not good at all. Regret buying this. Show details

Perfect. Never had a problem – Reliable. Bought 4 years ago and it's never missed a beat. Barely makes an sound. Love the front touch feature for the temp and the upside down freezer. Super handy if you have kids they can't raid the fridge. Show details

3 months in and going good – Been searching for a few years to upgrade terrible procrastinator here. Did so much research wanted bottom mounted. Bought this fridge 3 months ago so far so good. Im just one person so perfect for me ample room even the doors. One litre drinks fit on top shelf. The easy glide crisper is a dream and also in the freezer easy glide. So many… Read more

fridges dont have railed drawers they are cheap nasty hard to use. Water dispenser is great. The only gripe I have is when I dropped the freezer temp down from minus 17 to minus 16 15 14 etc (bc I found my ice cream was too hard) the fridge started making a weird whimpering noise every time I open fridge door it was very noticeable and annoying. So I set the temp back to 17 below and noise gone. Small price to pay for near perfection. This fridge looks a million dollars in my kitchen. Also when they unboxed from Harvey Norman fridge had a broken shelf and scratches on door which I was annoyed about but they replaced next day. Guess it had quite a few knocks on the ship. Overall highly recommend. Also its whisper quiet you can barely detect its on pretty amazing so far AAA+++.

Hisense is awesome! – I recently purchased the Hisense refrigerator and am pleasantly surprised. It is roomy and has adjustable glass shelving. The door storage shelving could have been better planned - you can fit the essentials though. The temperature control on the front of the refrigerator is easy to use and it has great features such as a 'super freeze', 'super… Read more

cool' and 'holiday' mode.

The non-plumbed water dispenser is a great feature and is easily cleaned - it lifts out completely.

Overall, I am glad I chose this model over other brands and the reasonable price was a bonus.

A good spacious fridge – We replaced our samsung 414L fridge with this larger 514L hisense fridge. Things i like about it is firstly it is very spacious inside, the shelves can be adjusted to ur choice so u can fit in big pots/pans sometimes too. The freezer has quite enough space too. The fresh food compartment is the thing i preferred this fridge over the other bcoz it… Read more

has got a separator wedge with which u can separate fruits feom vegetables otherwise bcoz the tray is quite big ur food would get lost at the back or bottom. The things i did not like is firstly it dont have any deodorizer like my samsung fridge had and bcoz of which my fridge never had any odours, and now if i put any strong smelling food the whole fridge starts smelling. Second is the cans area in the door is not removable and it takes up quite much space in the door which otherwise can be used for milk, etc. Overall im quite happy with the purchase

Edited review – Ok so I am editing this review as my initial review was very harsh based on a bad experience. Since then we have a replacement which is working just fine so far... the water dispenser is a refill, non plumbed dispenser which at this price point is a nice compromise & the reason we chose it. The fridge is good looking and if it remains reliable… Read more

this time I will be happy with it. Perhaps we got a rare dodgy one or I was unlucky, but I felt the need to update this review as I almost always rely on reviews when purchasing. The warranty is good for such issues.

We bought this fridge and within a week the light on the fridge would only turn on sometimes when the door was opened, it beeped randomly & the display would come off & on showing the temperature which seemed to change by itself. Cold one moment, warm the next with ice melting in the freezer then would go cold again. Constant beeping.

It's ok – So I have had my fridge for about 6 months now. Currently renting it. Brand new. The handle has come off easily and so I've fixed it myself. The freezer is starting to not freeze properly. The lights on the both fridge and freezer come on when they want to. This fridge was brand new when I received it and already having problems. It may be a great fridge if you don't have small children that is. Show details

Flimsy and motor stop working – Product is flimsy, product does not work, did not open packaging immediately after delivery. Once opened the fridge had massive dents and did not work. Both the Good Guys and Hisense refused to replace fridge or fix it under warranty. No customer service skills and both companies denied and took no responsibility on damaged product.  Show details

Family sized fridge – The fridge is easy to open and close, and it seals very well. Having the freezer on the bottom is a good feature and makes it easier to use as the crisper is at the right height for us, much more practical than having the freezer up top. As it's fairly wide and deep it's not too high either. HOWEVER, the biggest problem we've had with this useless… Read more

fridge is that we have the temperature set at 4 degrees which while it's a bit warm for us, some food still freezes, it's worse at 3 degrees though, but 3 is a better temp. For the food, but the fridge freezes up at this temp.. It's a good size fridge, not too wide and not too high, just keeps freezing up, makes it almost useless. Would NEVER EVER buy another one. It has a high electricity rating, so it's not too dear to run. BUT IT'S nearly useless.

Loving the size and functionality – Keeps food well chilled and food doesn't get frozen if it touches the back. I love the alarm if door is left open which can save on electricity. Solid which means food doesn't tip over. Has plenty of egg storage and even extra storage for bottles. Temperature shown on front door so I no longer have to bend down and climb in fridge to adjust temperature.  Show details

Great Fridge – Purchased this fridge in Dec 17 and we have been very happy with it. It looks great, the size is awesome and it keeps everything nice and cold. Can sometimes freeze things which sit directly in front of the vents at the back so keep and eye on that. We love the water dispenser feature. The crisper drawer feels a little funny to pull in and out… Read more

like its not sitting on the runners properly but we have checked others in store and they are all the same.

Great size freezer with handy ice tray, although the ice cubes are a little small.

All in all we really like our purchase and will keep you updated if we have any issues in the future.

Cheap quality – Really cheap quality fridge, temperature is always not regulated... easily scratched...hard to open and close, inconvenient freezer with ice that keeps on coming out and you open one droor of the fridge, 2 or 3 coming out automatically. Cheap plastic on the outside. Not recommended at all and the water is manual therefore you have to fill it... not worth the money  Show details

Good fridge – love the water dispenser in the door, our children can get a drink without opening the fridge and then forgetting to shut the door. love that the freezer in down the bottom as we use it less saves us bending for the fridge, great shelf space/storage. Love the vege/fruit drawer is on runner so don’t have to pull it out and hold it like our other fridge.  Show details

Buyer Beware – Bought a Hisense 514L Bottom Mount Refrigerator less than 3 months ago. The compressor is gone. It never maintained a good temperature in the fridge compartment.

that they are sending the paperwork. This has been a very disappointing experience about the product and the warranty claim procedure
