Altimo vs — Comparison

AFR4832W is the Altimo AFR4832W Undercounter Fridge with Icebox in white at £125, while ALD5502W is the Altimo ALD5502W Undercounter Larder Fridge in white at £159. Both are compact undercounter refrigeration options from Altimo, but they suit different needs: the AFR4832W includes a small icebox, whereas the ALD5502W is a fridge-only larder model.

The AFR4832W’s standout feature is the icebox, which gives it a small amount of frozen storage alongside chilled space. The ALD5502W does not list an icebox and is described as a larder fridge, so its interior is intended for fresh food rather than freezing. The provided specs do not include litre capacity, dimensions, shelf layout, power consumption, energy rating or noise level for either appliance. The confirmed differences are function and price: icebox at £125 versus larder-only storage at £159.

The AFR4832W suits buyers who want maximum flexibility for the least money, especially in a studio flat, office, guest room or student kitchen where there may be no separate freezer. It is £34 cheaper and offers basic frozen-item convenience. The ALD5502W is better if you already have freezer access and want a dedicated undercounter larder fridge, potentially with more usable chilled space because no room is taken by an icebox. It is also likely to suit households that prioritise fresh groceries over frozen snacks.

Bottom line: choose AFR4832W if you want the cheaper undercounter fridge with an icebox for occasional frozen storage / opt for ALD5502W if you prefer a larder-only fridge and can justify paying £159 for fresh-food space.
