Blomberg vs Iceking Freezers

Blomberg and Iceking sit at different ends of the freezer market. Iceking's range runs from the 33L TT35EW tabletop at £119 and the 60L RZ109EW undercounter at £149 up to the 242L RZ245EW tall freezer at £399. Blomberg's frost-free models start at £329.99 with the FNE154P undercounter and rise to the FNM455W 54cm tall freezer at £479.99, the FNM4671P at £529.99 and the integrated FNT4454I at £679.99.

The main contrast is defrosting. Iceking's freezers rely on manual defrosting and simple temperature settings, with reversible doors on all three models and adjustable feet on the RZ245EW. The RZ109EW adds three drawers for organising food in an undercounter format. Blomberg makes frost-free operation standard, so its freezers never need chipping clear of ice. Iceking's 242L RZ245EW costs £399, while Blomberg's narrower 54cm tall models sit at £479.99 and above.

Iceking suits budget buyers, students and small flats that need extra frozen storage, provided they are happy to defrost a few times a year. The TT35EW suits offices and student rooms, while the RZ245EW is a sensible family freezer. Blomberg suits buyers who want frost-free convenience in narrow or fitted spaces and are willing to pay for it. An owner fitting a freezer under a worktop should compare the RZ109EW at £149 with the FNE154P at £329.99, a difference of £180.99 that buys frost-free operation.

Bottom line: choose Blomberg if you want a frost-free freezer that never needs defrosting, with the FNE154P at £329.99 as the entry point and the FNM455W at £479.99 as the best tall option. Choose Iceking if you want the lowest price, with the 242L RZ245EW at £399 for family storage and the TT35EW at £119 for a tiny space.
