The FE1404-147 at £369 is £280 less than the GSN29VWEVG at £649, though the Bosch offers 200 litres against the Liebherr's 107.

Bosch suits families who need more capacity for the money, since the GSN36VWEPG at £749 gives 242 litres of frost-free storage. Liebherr suits buyers who want a compact premium undercounter for a kitchen run or utility room, and the FE1404-147 at £369 is the more affordable Liebherr. The FNE4204 suits people who need a tall cabinet with SpaceBox storage. The FNE1404-14 at £449 sits £200 below the GSN29VWEVG, and it offers 93 litres of NoFrost in a 55cm width. Its SpaceBox and VarioSpace storage also help keep larger items organised.

Bottom line: choose Bosch if you need a 200 to 242-litre cabinet with NoFrost and VarioZone storage, starting at £649 for the GSN29VWEVG. Choose Liebherr if SuperFrost, SmartFrost and Frost Protect matter more, with the FE1404-147 at £369 for an undercounter or the FNE4204 at £599 for a tall model.
