VerifiedMPN: HR6SBSFF610SW86 reviews
Ordinary – The fridge looks great but it is prone to failing. I had my fridge for less than 10 months and it has stopped working it is either a problem with thefan or compressor. I know of a friend who had the same fridge that stopped working after 4 months. Hisense customer support has been helpful so far.

Lost cooling in fridge side – Noticed fridge side was not cold but freezer side working perfect so rang the customer care line which is a absolute joke as no matter what time of day you ring your on hold for at least a half a hour really pathetic then after lodging your issues you are told a technician will contact you within 2 days because they send out the parts to the… Read more
technician first.
Then technician contacts you and won't work in with your availability to be home with your work commitments and finally when they can come when you will be home they tell you they don't have the part to fix your fridge and it will be another week then on top of that they stuff up the freezer side which had zero problems before they came without telling you resulting in you loosing your frozen food and in these days and ages unless your a ceo or politician you just don't have any spare cash until payday to replace your food that the technician ruined without telling you so all in all think carefully before you purchase this fridge and if you do purchase then be prepared for the nightmare you will go through to get it repaired.
Wonderful fridge for the family – We have owned our fridge for over a 1 year and love it. This fridge is a great fridge for a family of around 5-7 people. It has ample storage space through out and i find it very fundtional in seperating my food and also just general storage. we use the sef serve water feature at the front of the fridge and my kids will go through 1 -2 of the… Read more
4litres capacitys that it holds. great for summer. we have a 2 extra 2litre bottle sitting in the fridge of water to fill upi the container in summer. this is great as it eliminates small kids from spilling water all the time. it also encourages them to drink more. it does have a unlock and lock mechanism that is simple engineering feat the only thing i find mind boggeling and if you dont have the manual you will need one and that is the electronic panel on the front. but we have not had to change it yet and the food does not get freezer burnt or fridge burnt. the freezer is a frost freeze which is fabulus so its easy to clean. its a great modern looking fridge and will serve any family home well. enjoy this porduct!
the Highly sensible Hisense Fridge – We love this fridge, though it did replace a 25 year old 'Admiral' 370L. I wouldn't necessarily say it is always quiet - as I didn't hear the old fridge at all. And with the temperature, items at the back of the fridge actually freeze when it is on the recommended temperature, but that's easy to change. We love the glass shelves and vegetable… Read more
drawers and the freezer is fantastic. Adjustable shelving, room in the door and a drawer at the bottom - lots of room all in all. The fridge section is actually the same size as our entire old fridge, and I don't have to bend down all the time to see what is in there. The lighting is fantastic and it looks as though I'll never have to go through a defrost again! (nasty business). It's easy to clean and looks fantastic! My only gripes are 1. The water dispenser is hard to fill. We saw that in a review but the sales lady showed us that you just remove the container and pop it back in. Ahhh yes, but Popping it back in is tricky. Sometimes after putting it back the water doesn't come out. You have to remove it and put it back again a few times before it works, meanwhile, the water comes out of the dispenser hole and onto the floor. (dispenser locked or unlocked). the last time, it took us a couple of days to work out what was wrong. It turned out that the white rubber washer that was on the spout that has to go back into the dispenser hole.... should have been in the hole, not on the spout. Anyway, we worked it out. The dispenser takes up room though and I'm thinking we could have done without it. 2. We've noticed that the doors are not level at the top... Only my perfectionist bricklayer husband noticed it - now I can see it too.. No big deal however. Oh, we love the ice cube container too - and the plentiful egg holders, that you can place anywhere. All in all, we love it and hope it lasts a long time. Great price. Purchased from the Good Guys. We have a Hisense TV too, and it hasn't skipped a beat. Good brand.

We loved it – When we swap our fridge last 2017 it’s the best deal that we get because the old one is not working and now we had lots of space for our meat in the freezer and the temperature so far is consistently working as perfect.I can organise food in the fridge when your making lunchboxes for school it helps you a lot when you can easily put them with… Read more
labels and as a mum it’s a win win situation in the morning that you have to get and pack them and go..Easy morning comes with a smile and I recommend it to everyone..
Excellent – This is very nice company. I had my lg fridge before but this is more convienient to use. I bought this 6 months ago and no issues. I really like warranty they give. It is easy to open and close. I has water dispenser which i found very easy to use Show details
Doing the job! – Quite happy with the fridge overall. As mentioned in other reviews the water dispenser is a bit awkward and we found it to be a very slow stream. (Our previous fridge had a built in filter and ice maker and was power assisted. This one is just a gravity feed) As also mentioned the ice cube tray is not great, but very easily replaced. I really like… Read more
the layout in both fridge and freezer. I find the shelves much better than big drawers in the freezer. Keeps consistent temperature. Nice sleek look. Others have said it is very quiet. I have noticed a bit of vibrational noise, but overall happy with the purchase. Buying on line meant I could organise cheaper delivery and have my old fridge taken away too. Bonus!
Negative reviews
Problems 2 months after 3 year warranty expired – Brought a new unit and it stated making loud crunching noises, frozen vegetables in the vegetable box, water freezes and meats started defrosting in the freezer only 2 months after the expiry of the 3 years warranty. The light in the refrigerator side stopped working. It is no longer a frost free unit. Never expect a refrigerator to start giving… Read more
problems straight after the expiry of the warranty, maybe designed to last only the warranty period. Call help but was not really helpful. Never buy a Hisense again!!!
Wouldn’t waste your time or your money – Wouldn’t waste your time or your money won’t last, rubbish quality products and horrible customer service will just fob you off until warranty expires and then they will make you find your own repairer won’t even help find someone to fix your problem. If I were you I’d spend and extra $200 and get yourself something quality looks alright but… Read more
honestly the most unreliable thing and I have a tv to which was also rubbish broke within 3 months after having it repaired 3 times they had to replace it
Cheap fridge for a reason – I bought this fridge because it was cheaper than other brands and was really big has a water dispenser etc but , it is so noisy at night wakes me up ! It is definatly NOT frost free my whole freezer inside and everything in it has ice on it , the water dispenser is very awkward to fill as well , if you were considering this fridge , pay a bit extra and buy something else , I wish I had .

Perfect fridge for a growing family – This fridge has been well and truly worth every cent spent plus more! 6yrs later and still works like its brand new. Not once have i had any sort of issues.

A well performing well laid out fridge freezer at a great price – Can't fault it. Nicely laid out, very quiet, flexible, good lighting. Has a cold water dispenser that is manually filled. Left the freezer door open overnight and it looked like a snow storm in the morning. Left it alone and within a couple of days it has sorted and removed the ice buildup itself. The icemaker is probably the only thing… Read more
that would do with an improve as water tends to end up in the ice reservoir too easily.
Had read the Canstar reviews on Hisense before purchasing. Very good reviews, and that has been my experience.
Perfect for my needs and loving it – Bought this during a promo from Harvey Norman and loving it so far. Works real well, lots of storage place and quiet to boot. Finishes on the fridge are spot on, operations are easy to understand and best of all love the door open alert as i have a tendency to leave open and forget. Overall very nice fridge and loving it. Show details
This is a good fridge never had an issue – I like the design of the freezer I can see everything and a lot of storage and you can set the temperature you like for the fridge and freezer. Easy to clean and never had an issue with this fridge. Easy to open and close the doors and the color was great too. Show details
Amazing, Love the Water Feature! – Such a great fridge for a great price. The water feature is brilliant and provides cold water without having to link any plumbing works!! amazing fridge!! Highly recommend this fridge, we have been using it for nearly over a year with no faults or problems. We also love the touch screen lock and temperature reader! Show details
Excellent – Frost free list of storage huge freezer with ice trays and deep drays huge fridge section with cold water dispenser in door multiple preset temp setting with adjustable settings and door alarms and its got a wonderful frost free feature so you no your fridge and freezer will never frost up Show details
I love it – It’s a great size. Not bulky at all but still super spacious. I have a family of 4 to feed and plenty of room for every thing. Not loud at all. Comes with a container u refill will water that u can access out side the fridge. So not pluming it in. Holds the cold really well. Great quality and really cheap! No regrets Show details
Great fridge – Purchased this hi sense double door fridge for quite cheap at Harvey Norman. We have had a small problem at the beginning and hisense sent a rep out straight away, delivered a new fridge. It was no problem, really good company. Also purchased a 75" tv they had also, which has been great. Show details
Crap fridge – It looks good and is practical but ours literally stopped working after about 5 months. Before that, it had these weird dents that appeared at the top. You couldn’t feel them but could see them in certain lighting. Very ugly! Thankfully it has been replaced and so far so good but only time will tell. Also the water compartment needs to be cleaned regularly as mould grows in the plastic pipe and rubber pieces. Show details
Great product but could be better – I had purchased this product from Coogans Moonah Store in May 2018. I have not worked out how the ice maker come apart so you can clean it, you fill the water up in the top of it, which means water will also splash in the ice that you had already made in the ice draw. Petty they did not seal the side shelves, as I had some blood accidentally … Read more
fall in behind the plastic of the top shelf. I love the water dispenser, a easy way to fill it up, without pulling the water container from the fridge, is to cut a top of a bottle such as a soft drinks bottle and use that as a funnel..

Great fridge – Very clean and quiet, can adjust temperatures it maintains them quite well. Don’t have much to say. It was quite expensive but definitely worth it. Don’t want to be rude but I brought this from Harvey Norman and paid for them to deliver the delivery guys were quite rude and could barely speak English. Back to the fridge though the water expenser… Read more
is great for those hot summer afternoons the water comes out very cool and refreshing. The fridge is quite spacious and the freezer is a decent size. Sorry it was actually purchased from the good guys my mistake.
Good value product – Great value product recently made my purchase from good guys haven’t face any difficulties in storage anymore. Quite spacious and quite nice looking fridge with digital display . The most amazing part now i can travel anywhere without turning it off i am amazed with energy saver feature in it . Sure will recommend to others Show details
Excellent value! Perfectly does the job it needs to – We are so happy we did not go with more expensive refrigerators. This one, at a very good price obtained on sale, does the job perfectly. Its very smooth and quiet. It has an alarm sound for when the doors are opened,which is really good. It has an led panel to control the temperatures of either the fridge or freezer,and very easy to use. I set my fridge on 3 deg and freezer on -17deg. Show details
Love my Hisense TV – Early days but i love my new Hisense side by side fridge. It fits plenty of food. Is a good size and lots of features including water dispenser and ice maker. Good temperature control and looks really stylish. Love that it has plenty of space in the freezer compared to other fridge/freezers. Show details
What a beauty – We brought this fridge about 6 months ago, no noise, no dramas, it has a double fruit and veggie section, so much shelving in the fridge and freezer, for the price undet $1,100 you seriously can't go past this double door fridge.. Easy to keep clean and of course maintain.. Show details
Perfect size – Keeps cool no worries it’s quite and super easy to keep tidy best fridge on the market for the size and price also price matched and payed $794 for it so it really was a great buy stays super clean and the super freeze function works really well it’s perfect for after getting home with shopping Show details
Good for our needs and price paid – Massive fridge freezer very happy with it! Is quieter than our previous Changhong fridge, has lots of space. One thing that could be better is an extra shelf in fridge compartment. Where you fill water it’s a little difficult because of the space, however if you have right bottle is not a big drama. Show details
Great buy! – The room in the fridge is unbelievable, its so quiet i have never heard it. I love my son can get up and get a drink of water now alone, also very easy to clean just spary and wipe comes up new everytime overall its been the best fridge I've ever owned! Show details
Works well – This fridge is great, cools drinks quick, All food is cooled at the same temperature, and very quickly! it is a very quiet fridge, great for those who enjoy the quiet it is very easy to clean, just take the shelves out and soak them in soapy water and any grime is gone!!! Show details
Great Affordable Fridge – Bought this fridge in 2017 for $850 and I am surprised how good it is for the money.+ Pros - Has plenty of room - Affordable - Has a water dispenser that doesn't need to be plumbed in - Great finish Cons - Can be quiet noisey - Water dispenser is slow - 2.5 start energy rating Show details
Works well for the family – We purchased this fridge freezer a year ago when moving into out new home. We are a family of four and we really needed more space in our fridge. After a bit of research we chose this one. On the fridge side of things we find there is plenty of space and we haven't had any issues with 'cold spots.' The crisper keeps our fruit and veg fresh for a… Read more
while as well. I find the door can stick a bit but maybe that's because our previous fridge didn't have a great seal and I was used to that. On the freezer side of things I like the amount of shelving and the drawers. The only negative I find is that is hard to fit really large items in there due to the narrow nature of the freezer, but we work around this.
Convenient and practical – Having this fridge has made a big difference to my family. We rent so can't have the plumbed in fridge but my daughters drink a lot more water now. We also have room to store the week's packed lunches so it makes school mornings so much easier. I managed to bake and freeze over a hundred muffins for the hole term's morning teas. Show details
Ok, fridge but a little impractical – This is a decent fridge for the price, however the water holder in the main door only holds about 8 litres, and runs out fairly quickly. Could be vastly improved if it had a hose connector for water and ice. Otherwise, the storage space is good in the fridge and freezer compartments; although the digital display is confusing and not straight forward. Over all, a good 2 door fridge for around $700-$800.
