The quietest fridge-freezers in Australia
Fridge-freezers ranked by the manufacturer's stated noise figure, quietest first. A fridge runs day and night, so its noise figure matters more in an open-plan room than a dishwasher's does.
Across the 29 fridge-freezers with a stated figure, noise runs from 36 to 43 dBA, median 40. The loudest listed is 7 dB above the quietest. Noise figures are the manufacturer's stated A-weighted decibels, taken from retailer spec sheets on the dates shown; the government database records none. The stated figure is measured under test conditions, so a machine's loudest moment can sit above it.
