Description
Bosch Series 4 Freestanding Total No Frost Fridge Freezer with VitaFresh, 203 x 60 cm
A 203cm freestanding fridge freezer holding 368 litres, with Total No Frost so the freezer never needs defrosting and VitaFresh drawers keeping produce fresh.
Standing 203cm tall in a standard 60cm gap, the KGN392WEBG puts 279 litres of fridge above 89 litres of freezer. That split suits a household that shops once a week and cooks from scratch most nights. Five fridge shelves, three of them adjustable, and four door bins handle the tall bottles and awkward jars every kitchen accumulates over time.
Total No Frost is the reason to pick it. Two independent cooling circuits keep the fridge and freezer air separate, so smells stay where they belong and ice never builds up in the three freezer drawers. VitaFresh drawers hold fruit and vegetables at around 0°C, while SuperCooling and superFreezing step in when a big shop lands at once.
Ideal For
279 litres of fridge and 89 litres of freezer swallow a full weekly shop, and superFreezing drops the temperature in advance so a large batch going in does not warm what is already there.
Rated 39 dB in noise class C, it stays quiet enough for a room that doubles as living space, and Perfect Fit lets the cabinet stand flush against a wall.
Total No Frost takes care of the freezer automatically, so the three drawers stay clear of ice and the annual scrape-out with a bowl of warm water never comes round again.
Key Features
279 litres in the fridge and 89 in the freezer, spread across five fridge shelves, four door bins and three freezer drawers with a 4-star rating.
Automatic defrosting keeps ice from forming in the freezer, so the drawers keep sliding freely and packaging keeps its shape without any manual intervention.
Climate-controlled drawers hold fruit and vegetables at around 0°C, keeping produce usable well beyond what an ordinary salad crisper manages in an Irish kitchen.
A single compressor and two independent cooling circuits earn a class C noise rating, quiet enough for a kitchen that stays in use through the evening.
One of the five fridge shelves pulls out on glass runners, bringing whatever has migrated to the back of the cabinet forward where you can reach it.
If the supply drops, the freezer holds its temperature for up to 12 hours, which covers most storm outages without costing you a drawer of food.
What Total No Frost actually does
Frost forms when moist air meets a cold surface, and in an older freezer it builds on the walls until drawers stop sliding and usable capacity quietly disappears. Total No Frost circulates dry air instead, so ice never gets a foothold and all three drawers stay usable to the back. The practical result is that there is no annual defrosting job, no bowl of warm water, and no afternoon lost to a puddled kitchen floor.
Fitting 203 centimetres into a kitchen
The cabinet is 60cm wide and 66cm deep, so it drops into a standard appliance gap, but at 203cm tall the headroom is worth measuring before it arrives. Perfect Fit means it can sit flush against a wall or inside a niche rather than demanding clearance at the sides. The door is hinged on the right and can be reversed if the room reads better the other way, and at 72.3kg it is a two-person job.
Reading the E energy rating properly
The current EU scale runs from A down to G, and E sits in the middle of it. What a single letter cannot show is scale. This is a 368 litre appliance cooling two compartments through separate circuits, and Bosch quotes 238 kWh a year to run it. A smaller fridge freezer carrying a better letter can still draw a comparable amount of electricity, because it is chilling far less space. Judge the annual figure against the volume you genuinely need and the numbers start to make sense.
How It Compares
| Kitchen Need | Bosch Technology | Practical Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Weekly big shop | 279 L fridge space | Five shelves and four door bins take a full week of groceries without stacking things on top of each other. |
| Batch cooking | 89 L freezer, three drawers | Three separate drawers keep meals, meat and frozen veg apart, with a 4-star rating for long-term storage. |
| Never defrosting again | Total No Frost | Dry circulating air stops ice forming, so the freezer looks after itself and drawers keep sliding all year. |
| Open-plan noise | 39 dB, noise class C | Quiet enough to sit in a kitchen that opens onto a living area and stays in use all evening. |
| Produce going limp | VitaFresh drawers | Climate-controlled storage at around 0°C keeps fruit and vegetables in usable condition for noticeably longer than a plain crisper. |
| Tight wall alcove | Perfect Fit installation | The cabinet can be pushed flush to a wall or into a niche rather than needing clearance on both sides. |

The Verdict
Strengths
- 368 litres total across fridge and freezer
- Total No Frost means no manual defrosting
- VitaFresh drawers hold produce at around 0°C
- Quiet 39 dB running noise, class C
- Two independent cooling circuits keep odours separate
- SuperCooling and superFreezing for large shops
- Reversible right-hand hinge and Perfect Fit installation
Considerations
- The E energy rating sits mid-scale; Bosch quotes 238 kWh a year, which is worth weighing against the 368 litres it cools.
- At 203cm tall and 72.3kg, it needs headroom checked in advance and two people to move it into position.
- This is a freestanding appliance only. Bosch states a decor door panel is not possible, so it cannot be hidden behind cabinetry.
