Hisense 133L Under Counter Larder Fridge vs Undercounter Fridge 133L Capacity — Comparison

The Hisense RL170D4BCE 133L Under Counter Larder Fridge and the Hisense RL170D4BWE Undercounter Fridge 133L Capacity are closely matched models, both priced at £169 and both aimed at buyers wanting a compact, icebox-free larder fridge. In Hisense’s line-up, they occupy the same practical undercounter tier, so the differences are mainly the level of specification shown and installation detail.

RL170D4BCE lists a 133-litre capacity, reversible door, two adjustable glass shelves, a salad crisper drawer and dimensions of H:845mm x W:555mm x D:575mm. RL170D4BWE also gives 133L capacity and an E energy rating, but its listed extras are more limited, focusing on the larder-fridge format and a C-rated 40dB noise level. Both are E rated and neither model includes an icebox.

The RL170D4BCE is the safer choice if you need clearer fitting information or want to know shelf and crisper details before buying. Its reversible door and stated dimensions help with awkward under-counter spaces. The RL170D4BWE suits shoppers comparing primarily on price and capacity, especially if they simply need a 133L Hisense larder fridge and the 40dB noise figure is useful for an open-plan room. Because these are same-brand alternatives, the real comparison comes down to format, capacity and the features you will notice every day. Larger larder models reward households that fill a fridge once or twice a week, while compact appliances are easier to place and cheaper to buy. Noise figures, defrost assistance, controls, drawer design and bottle storage can matter just as much as the headline litre rating in normal use.

Bottom line: choose RL170D4BCE if you want the fuller specification, reversible door, two adjustable shelves, crisper drawer and exact dimensions / opt for RL170D4BWE if you want the same £169, 133L undercounter format with a stated 40dB noise rating.
