Energy-use evidenceManufacturer energy-use claims with their published measurement conditions and limitations. Compare tests with matching ambient temperature, setpoint, load and mode.

| Questions to check before buying | The 4 L secondary compartment shares the main temperature control; it is not an independently controlled freezer or fridge zone. Handle treatment, lid-opening clearance and rated input watts remain unverified. The manufacturer daily-energy claim lacks the conditions needed for a like-for-like comparison. |
