Rank #6 in Best American Fridge Freezer 2026: 10 Ranked, and Where the Capacity Figures Break
Willow WSBS84DS 433L American Style Fridge Freezer
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The Willow WSBS84DS is the sixth entry in this guide, priced at £479.99 — below the £519.99, £549, £599.99 and £649 of the four listings examined in the capacity check. It is a silver side-by-side fridge freezer with two doors, a built-in water dispenser and a Total No Frost system, rated 4.5 out of 5 from 53 ratings.
What earns it its own page is that it is the one listing here whose numbers agree with each other. The title says 433L; the bullet says 430L net, split into 261L fridge and 169L freezer, and 261 plus 169 comes to exactly 430. The specification table backs that up instead of contradicting it: 430 litres under Capacity, and 169 Litres under FreezerCapacity — the same freezer figure the bullet gives. Its shell is a third size as well, 63.7 x 83.9 x 176.3cm, which matches neither of the two dimension pairs quoted elsewhere in this guide. Everything below comes from the Amazon listing for the Willow WSBS84DS; we have not tested the appliance.

What buyers actually say
Quoted from customer reviews on Amazon
Verified purchase“It's nice and spacious”
Verified purchase“Product:This fridge is great, literally plug and play and with the fast freeze setting. You can have your freezer at temperature within 2-3 hours ish or at least keeping the frozen food from thawing. The water dispenser is basic but cool. It doesn't have a filter, so only pour water into it that has been filtered or at least from a bottle. The fridge is set around 2c temperature. Milk lasts ages and drinks and food are cold with no signs of freezing in places. This is a week later. There are options on the touch pad which is easy to navigate.Delivery:Delivery was great, very informative. Just be aware of the boxed dimensions as the drivers won't unpack it. I did not take this into account (my own fault) so although the unpacked fridge fits perfectly through my door unpacked, simply it didn't boxed and I chose the basic delivery option. On your own getting this out of the top packaging weren't to bad but it's about 90kg. Trying to get this up a step and the foam from beneath it was a mare. Also the feet are able enough to tear your Lino. And that's what I did. Also unplug the plug from its holster as this will also at extra centimetres to the dims and using a single standard kitchen external door again on your own or with help will make to put the fridge through, it was tight. But hats off to the drivers, was delivered as promised and I was courtesy called to advise of etas and that's above and beyond in my opinion.Overall net positive for me, very happy overall and the Lino is old anyway 😂”
