In detail: Whirlpool SW8AM2QW Single-door fridge 363L
Whirlpool, a well-known appliance brand, offers with the SW8AM2QW a large-format 363-litre single-door fridge, built for households that prioritise a large storage volume over a combi fridge-freezer.
Its exclusive 6th Sense FreshControl technology automatically regulates temperature and humidity inside the unit, a feature aimed at extending food freshness beyond what a classic thermostat manages. Fan-assisted cooling, which circulates air continuously via a fan, evens out temperature throughout the cabinet, limiting the gaps between top and bottom often seen with static cooling.
The interior is organised around 6 shelves, 4 of them height-adjustable, and 5 adjustable door bins, adapting to containers of various sizes, from bottles to large dishes. LED lighting and a reversible door round out a set of features designed for everyday comfort of use.
The Whirlpool SW8AM2QW suits large households or people who already have a separate freezer, looking for a large, reliable fridge capacity with Whirlpool's advanced freshness technology.

Our tester's verdict: Pierre Freysinger
Installed in a family kitchen already fitted with a separate freezer, this Whirlpool quickly showed the value of its generous 363-litre capacity for storing a week's shopping for a household of four without playing Tetris. Fan-assisted cooling genuinely evens out temperature well, with limited gaps between the top and bottom of the unit, unlike classic static cooling. The 6th Sense FreshControl technology lived up to its promise on fresh vegetable storage, which visibly kept longer than with a previous entry-level fridge. The adjustable door bins let you fit bottles and larger containers without wasting space. The 62 kg weight means careful planning for delivery and installation, worth anticipating. For a large family after a reliable, large-capacity single-door fridge, this Whirlpool remains a solid choice, at a price consistent with its features.
