Zanussi ZX99/5

We bought our this model over 20 years ago, its served us very well ,but now it making bleeping noise at intervals.ofcos all good things must come to an end.we love the fridge freezer. Nothing can top it

Fridge door and other shelves poor quality and expensive to keep on replacing (single adult use only)!Also support services and manuals expensive. Fridge and freezer working but alarms going off every minutes at intervals between 3and 10mins.Door seals clean and undamaged. Decided to replace with a different manufacturer.

The design for the Zanussi ZX99/5 is good but noticed that the bottom shelf where I housed my cartons of milk, snapped off when the fridge/freezer door was opened and the milk topped onto the plastic shelf- maybe the design needs to tighter to incorporate cartons of milk up to 6 lires in size.

For the last year I have nearly every day had to manually turn off the temperature alarm that annoyingly bleeps constantly and for no apparent reason.

Ultimately, i have bought a new Samsung fridge/freezer today.

Maybe i am being unfair as the Zanussi fridge/freezer is 6 years old, but the persistant bleeping did make me buy a new one.

i bought my zx99/5si for £400 in october 2004, during christmas 2005 we noticed that food was spoiling in the fridge(upper)compartment,contacted zanussi and was told basically to sod off as it was 2 months out of warranty,as i am a technician by trade i had a look myself and found that the defrost timer had failed,£25 later and a manual defrost saw the thing working again, albeit for only 4 months,then a warm fridge again!inspection revealed a failed circulation fan,price for the part?-£75!,i fitted it and normal service was resumed for?-4 months,awoke to a very annoying beeping noise,freezer door switch had failed,replaced that,then 2 weeks later the fridge door switch failed,basically it is not worth getting involved in repairing these piles of rubbish,i showed the various components to a mate of mine who is an electronics engineer with the ministry of defence and he said the cost of the electronics parts based on the poor quality would have been £25 at most to the zanussi factory! a clear case of something getting made to just outlast the warranty period and no more,an absoloutely disgusting example of zanussi/electrolux's business practices!i truly wish i had never clapped eyes on the thing in the first place,a mate of mine bought a beko at the same time and that is still going strong!

Zanussi Fridge freezer model 99/5 intelliflow

bought this model in November 2004 from a small dealer, it was classed as A grade second £299.00 had a few scratches but otherwise perfect and until earlier this year no problems, then it started beeping inconsistantly, usually solved by opening door pressing button, checked manual which indicated temp drop so I assumed that it was due to door not being closed properly especially as it righted itself when door opened and closed then over last week it didn't seem as cold in fridge then over weekend fridge packed up followed by freezer, probably gonna be to expensive to fix so now checking out new ones.

I suppose I should be grateful in this day and age of short lasting throw away items it lasted almost 6 years.

Bought the ZX99/5SI in December 2003 and within the first 18 months it developed an annoying beep during the night. Frustratingly this was just outside the warranty period and Zanussi wanted £380 to replace the compressor, we eventually settled on £180 but within 18 months the temperature beepers were back to annoy us. Food and freezer temeratures were fine so we have lived with the beeping (and cancelling manually) but now it has packed in. We will not be repairing it. We loved its look when we bought it and it came recomendeD by Comet....what can I say other than DO NOT BUY!!!

£349.99 paid for this model in May 2005,August 2010 the fridge no longer works which makes the fridge freezer useless for a functional kitchen.It has been cared for and not abused.shelves also started to fracture and repairs needed to be made in 2004.Too expensive to replace by buying.

Don't waste your money but hey its a lottery these days on how long electrical goods last no matter what make or model.Get a grip you fat cats and give us proper value for money.

Zanussi Fridge ZRG614SW Absoute Rubbish. It cost £199 and within four months the handle has stress fractures from both screw points and is too weak to open fridge. Contacted Zanussi/Electrolux What a joke Zero customer service tried to tell me that the years guarantee doesn't cover weak plastic handles!

I am waiting to hear from John Lewis but trust me I am going to the small claims to FORCE Zanussi to take responsibility! Absolutely disgusting!

Starting with the negative, some of the trim broke off fairly easily when hit with an ogject (like a sweeping brush or vac), but didn't look too bad to the naked eye and that's it. Never had an problem with it in 4 years, alarms have gone off but on inspection, things weren't stored correctly or the door wasn't closed properly. Top product. Gave it to my sister when we moved, now I want it back 'cos integrated appliances are too small in comparison!!

Rubbish. Lasted just 3 years. Spent over £100 on repairs that made no difference. After months of temperature alarms going off all the time including through the night it was eventually just too warm to put anything in. It ended up that the fridge was warmer than the kitchen!!!!
