We tested the fridge for energy efficiency, and it earned an A+ rating. This is the lowest energy efficiency level we have ever tested, and it is a great result for an appliance of this price. The 42dB noise rating was good. It's still a bit more loud than the less expensive models we tested, but it is quieter than older fridges which made a lot of noise.

Swan has kept the design simple which is an advantage in terms of user-friendliness. The fridge comes with an LED bulb light as well as a thermostat that rotates to regulate temperature. Its temperature was fairly stable with the middle and top shelves only fluctuating by a few degrees each side of their average while the salad drawer stayed at a brisk 2oC. However we did notice that it was quite warm at the back, which could be a problem in warmer rooms.
