** CONSUMER REVIEWS SUMMARY ** Overall Summary: User feedback for the Electrolux EHE6899BA is mixed-to-negative overall: people like the size, looks, and temperature control when it's functioning well, but many report significant downsides-especially loud operation, peeling finish/brittle components, and recurring reliability issues (ice/water/leaks/electronics/door sealing) that feel unacceptable for the premium price. (productreview.com.au), User Rating: 2.5, Pros: When it's working, owners often like the capacity and performance: 'a great fridge with ample room… and excellent temperature control'. (productreview.com.au), A few users praise the look/finish (before issues develop): 'nice aesthetics' / 'looks good'. (productreview.com.au), Some positive experiences with service outcomes do appear (at least in certain cases): '1 call to Electrolux… Tech out within 2 days… Fixed the issue, no cost.' (productreview.com.au), Cons: Noise is a very common complaint (compressor/fan): 'It's NOISY!… quite annoyingly noisy' and 'sounds like a truck… compressor is super noisy'. (productreview.com.au), Build quality/finish problems-especially the dark 'stainless' coating peeling and parts cracking/breaking: 'paint peeling', 'some weird coating that peels off', and reports of drawers/shelves breaking early. (productreview.com.au), Reliability issues and costly repairs (ice maker, leaks, electronics, doors not aligning/sealing, condensation): users report repeated faults like 'leaks water underneath it', 'Ice machine has rusted', 'doors don't align properly… constant condensation', plus frustration with repairs/response times.
