About the Hisense RB390N4WCE

The RB390N4WCE is 186cm tall and about 60cm wide. It has 207L of fridge space over a 97L freezer, 304L in total. The fridge has three shelves and a wine rack with a chrome bottle rack. The freezer has two drawers. Total No Frost covers both sections, so neither needs defrosting.

The water dispenser is not plumbed in. You fill a tank in the fridge door by hand, up to a 3L maximum, and the manual says to fill it only when the tank is seated properly. The manual also warns against pressing the lever without a cup, as that can cause a leak. Which? notes there is no ice maker and no smart features.

Temperature is set electronically. The freezer range is -14°C to -24°C. There is a fast freeze function and a holiday mode. An alarm sounds if the fridge door stays open for more than two minutes. The door opens on the right as supplied and can be switched to the left. Retailers list a 39 dB maximum noise level.

What owners report about the Hisense RB390N4WCE

We found little owner feedback we could read for this exact stainless-steel model. Most reviews we came across were for the white version, so we have left them out.

What the manual does show is where owners are likely to meet problems: the dispenser. The tank is filled by hand and the lever can leak if pressed without a cup.

Who the Hisense RB390N4WCE suits

This fits a household of three or four that wants a bigger fridge than the 54cm and 55cm models give, in a finish that looks right in an open-plan kitchen. The 39 dB rating and frost-free freezer help in a kitchen where you hear the appliance. The water dispenser is a convenience, not a plumbed-in feature.

Look elsewhere if you batch-cook or buy frozen food in bulk, as 97L of freezer is modest. The Hotpoint H5X 82O SX has more freezer space, and the Samsung Series 6 RB38C636DB1/EU is taller. If running cost matters most, the Bosch Series 6 KGE49AICAG is rated more efficiently than this E-rated model.

How we score it

Every score here comes from our ranking model; no editor sets the order. We haven't read the review sites for this guide yet, so for now it is led by owners. It ranks products by how happy owners are, holding back any product few owners have rated until more agree. How many rated it and how new it is only settle close calls, and value for money earns its own badge rather than a higher place. We compared 19 models for this guide before settling on these ten.

Brands can't pay to be included or to move up. We last checked these picks in November 2026.
