Written by the company

In 1942 fishmongers Charles and Frank Purley, fed up with the high cost of ice, developed a refrigeration system to keep their fresh fish chilled. And so, Lec was born. The brand quickly became a firm favourite and today, over 60 years later, Lec is still the refrigeration appliance brand of choice in many UK households. The Lec tradition continues with the support of the largest producer and supplier of kitchen appliances in the UK.

Happy with fridge freezer

Perfect sized fridge freezer for my small kitchen. My parents always had a Lec fridge (from the early 1960’s) and a Lec freezer - so it’s nice to keep up the tradition.

LEC CHEST FREEZER Small chest freezer…

LEC CHEST FREEZER Small chest freezer replaced large one - It's good. Only criticism is just one small basket supplied so most contents would have ended up on it's "floor"so leaning in to get items difficult when nor so mobile, luckily I'd saved baskets from my old one which although they were larger meant I was able to use them & lift them in & out - pity asa couple more baskets would have made it a "best Buy"

Lec Freezer from Curry’s online.

Ordered online. Had web chat with Curry’s employee to double check that freezer was suitable for garage. Very good correspondence all along it’s journey. Two gentlemen delivered on time having phoned 30min previously, and placed freezer in garage and even took away the packaging. The freezer is quite slimline and quiet. The basket is very small. The spring on the lid is very strong and opens very quickly.. be careful. Definitely recommend Lec freezer and Curry’s service.

Great first time buy from LEC

Having had my new smallish freezer delivered I followed instructions and set up in the garage, left standing for an hour then plugged in and switched on.
Controls already set for -18C so no temperature adjustment needed. Perfect size for what we needed it for and loved the shelf inside and lid light.
All in all a very good buy so far.

I would give this fridge no stars if I could. I needed certain dimensions and the only one that would fit was an LEC.The 1st one was delivered in June. There was an obvious fault as the top kept dripping and ruining all food. The terrific retailer (Sutton Appliances) changed it immediately then again and then again so that's 3 so far then LEC took over and disaster so I have had 3 faulty fridges. After not turning up an engineer came in August (no PPE). The fridge no longer dripped but icebergs were forming and I cannot remove shelves. Engineer opened door said "Jesus Christ" closed door and said I need new fridge. This has been delayed twice and no delivery date available. My husband and I are in our late 70s have had to isolate due to Cancer and Covid and can only keep food on 1 shelf necessitating the need to shop every other day. Promised a credit note (but as yet nothing has arrived) but I NEED a fridge!

I bought my elderly mother a Lec fridge freezer for christmas. She is delighted with it. It looks good, is compact but holds quite a lot and is easy to keep clean. It is energy efficient which is very important in this present climate and it was excellent value for money.

Great Product

I chose the LEC because it was one of the smallest in height whis was important to me. I wanted black which also limited my chocie. I neede the freezer atthe bottom again limiting my choice. The LEC ticked all my boxes.
It abosultey brlliant, quiet, very efficent and has plenty of space. Thankyou LEC. Wendy, Brighton

This item is quite good apart from the fact when we bought this item we asked the salesperson for advice knowing that the fridge freezer was an overflow that we needed to place in the garage.
Unfortunately this has ment the freezer was fine until this week when the temperature dropped and caused the freezer to stop working.
We had to throw away quite a lot of food that had defrosted.
Since this we have had to move the item into the house which is not what we wanted and quite inconvenient to us all.

A good freezer so far.

The freezer was delivered on time by AO, and placed in position.
So far the freezer has performed as expected. It is extremely quiet!
