Hotpoint HTC20 T322 UK Integrated Fridge Freezer
280L · Tall integrated70/30 layout · Total No Frost
Editorial review Reviewed 29 October 2026 How we assess products
The Hotpoint HTC20 T322 UK prioritises fresh ingredients behind matching kitchen furniture. A 212L fridge and 68L freezer create a distinctly different balance from the Beko BCFD450. There are six fridge shelves, four adjustable, a bottle rack and a humidity-controlled produce drawer, while Total No Frost avoids a regular defrosting job. Testing found a warmer upper fridge and a colder-than-target freezer; tall-bottle door storage is restrictive and controls are basic. Check the actual shelf layout before assuming every large container will fit. The main installation constraint is its 193.5cm height: this is a taller integrated format, not a replacement for any 177.5cm appliance. Confirm the niche, furniture panels, hinge arrangement and ventilation with the installation instructions. It suits a fresh-food-heavy shop, but offers less energy efficiency per litre than efficient freestanding alternatives.

ETI 52mm Fridge and Freezer Thermometer
An optional independent check of the storage temperature, especially after installation or a setting change. One 52mm dial unit checks one compartment; use two separate units if you want simultaneous fridge and freezer readings.
Hang or place clear of food and follow the thermometer and appliance instructions. A separate thermometer checks temperature; it does not replace the appliance controls.
