Assessment

The Smeg FAB10RPG6 is the pastel green variant with right hinge of the FAB10 Series 6. The 50's Style line enables aesthetic coordination with other Smeg appliances in the same family — toaster, coffee machine, blender — building a kitchen or living space with a consistent colour identity. The hinge position is a critical purchase decision: the FAB10 has a non-reversible door, so the correct version must be selected before purchasing. The mirror version with left hinge is available as a separate model in the same FAB10 Series 6 range. Energy consumption of 115 kWh/year is an improvement over Series 5 (142 kWh/year). Climate class SN-T makes the unit suitable for environments between 10 and 43°C, including warm kitchens or unconditioned spaces.

FAQ

Is the door of the Smeg FAB10RPG6 reversible?

No — the door of the Smeg FAB10RPG6 has a fixed right hinge and is not reversible. It is essential to verify before purchase that the right-hand opening suits your room layout. The mirror version with left hinge is available as a separate model in the same FAB10 Series 6 range.

Can the Smeg FAB10RPG6 be installed under a worktop?

Yes — the Smeg FAB10RPG6 is specifically designed for under-counter installation, at 96 cm tall, compatible with standard kitchen worktops. Dimensions: 96 × 55 × 63.2 cm (68 cm depth with handle). Adequate ventilation space must be left around the unit, particularly at the rear and top, as specified in the Smeg installation manual. The rounded 50's Style design also makes it an ideal statement piece in a visible position in a living room or open-plan space.

What is the difference between FAB10 and FAB10H in Smeg Series 6?

The FAB10 (e.g. FAB10RRD6) is a fridge-freezer with an internal freezer compartment (~13 L), energy class F, 115 kWh/year. The FAB10H (e.g. FAB10RPG6) is a fridge-freezer with freezer compartment, class F, 115 kWh/year. Both share the same body, dimensions 96×55×63.2 cm and 50's Style design. The main difference is the presence or absence of the freezer compartment, which affects energy class and annual consumption.
