The Smeg FAB28RDRB6 is a premium, retro-inspired freestanding fridge designed for style-conscious homeowners who need reliable food preservation in a compact footprint. It offers a sophisticated multi-flow cooling system and a dedicated Life Plus 0°C drawer to keep perishables fresh, though its right-hand hinge design requires careful placement to ensure the door opens fully.

No, the FAB28RDRB6 features a fixed right-hand hinge that cannot be reversed.
It is a specialized zone with a controlled temperature between -2°C and +3°C, designed specifically to extend the freshness of perishable items like meat, fish, and cheese.
You must leave at least 175mm of space on the hinge side of the appliance to ensure the door can open wide enough to remove shelves.
The fridge section uses an automatic defrost system, but the 26-litre icebox requires manual defrosting.
It operates at a very low noise level of 35 dB, which is classified as very quiet, making it suitable for open-plan living.
The total net capacity is 270 litres, comprised of 244 litres in the fridge and 26 litres in the freezer.
Verify the unit is perfectly level using the adjustable feet. Ensure it is not touching adjacent cabinetry.
Ensure a 175mm clearance gap is provided on the hinge side of the unit to allow the door to swing open completely.
This is normal for this model; manually defrost the freezer compartment when ice exceeds 3-5mm in thickness.
Proper installation is critical for this model. Because the door is right-hinged and cannot be reversed, you must account for this during placement. Crucially, when positioning the fridge next to a wall or cabinet, a gap of 175mm must be maintained on the hinged side to allow the door to open fully, which is necessary for removing the internal shelves and drawers.
Regular maintenance involves simple tasks to keep the unit running smoothly. Clean the interior using a damp cloth and mild, non-abrasive detergent. While the fridge features automatic defrosting, the 4-star icebox will require manual defrosting periodically when ice buildup is observed. Always ensure the door seal is clean and free of debris to maintain an airtight closure.
