Editorial note
The Hotpoint RTAA42S refrigerator stands out with its modern and sleek silver design, which fits perfectly into all types of kitchens. With a net capacity of 217 L, it adequately meets the storage needs of a family. Additionally, the reversible door opening feature offers appreciated installation flexibility, while its noise level of 45 dB ensures quiet operation. However, this model has some drawbacks. The absence of a No Frost system means regular manual defrosting, which can be cumbersome. Furthermore, the freezer capacity, while sufficient for daily use, may prove limited for larger families or those who frequently buy frozen products.
