Hoover vs Hotpoint Fridges

Hoover and Hotpoint cover both small and full-size needs. Hoover's range here is the Hoover HONLQ2S58EWHK H-Fridge 300 undercounter larder fridge at £189, the Hoover HOLHS58EWK 127-litre larder fridge with a wine rack at £199, and the Hoover HWCB60UKN 46-bottle undercounter wine cooler at £459. Hotpoint's models include the Hotpoint H55VM1120WUK 105-litre undercounter fridge with a 17-litre icebox at £275, the Hotpoint SH6A2QWRUK 322-litre tall larder at £409, and the Hotpoint SH8A2QWRDUK 366-litre freestanding fridge in white at £478, with the graphite SH8A2QGRDUK at £459. Both brands sell a similar 366-litre model, and the graphite finish costs £19 less than the white one.

Hotpoint's capacities go much further, from the 322-litre SH6A2QWRUK tall larder to the 366-litre freestanding models, which add automatic defrost, fast freeze and electronic temperature control. The H55VM1120WUK is the Hotpoint choice that competes with Hoover's undercounter units, adding an icebox to its 105 litres of fridge space. Hoover's HONLQ2S58EWHK adds Aria Clear Module, LED lighting and hOn app control, while the Hotpoint undercounter model is described by its 36dB noise level and icebox.

Hoover suits small kitchens, second-fridge jobs in a utility room and wine lovers who want a 46-bottle undercounter cooler. Hotpoint suits households that need a main fridge, with the 322-litre tall larder and 366-litre freestanding models giving far more space than Hoover's 127-litre options. The Hotpoint H55VM1120WUK is the closer match for an undercounter job, and its 36dB noise rating makes it a quiet option. Compare the height against your worktop before ordering either brand.

Bottom line: choose Hoover if you need an affordable 127-litre larder or undercounter fridge at £189 to £199, or a 46-bottle wine cooler at £459. Choose Hotpoint if you need a main fridge with 322 or 366 litres of space, priced from £409 to £478.
