Product Highlights
Smart Innovation: Preserve the quality of your food items for longer using this appliance’s Vacuum Compartment. This technology keeps air and oxygen levels low to ensure your food items like meat, fish, and dairy stay fresh and flavourful1.
Advanced Cooling and Purification: Achieve optimal freshness with its combination of Inverter x Dual Fan Cooling technology, featuring dedicated fans and Eco Thermo-Sensors in each compartment for precise temperature control. Activate Quick Cooling mode to enjoy approximately 29% faster cooling2. Additionally, the Triple Power Filter effectively removes odours3 and up to 99% of bacteria4.
Versatile Compartment Solution: Enjoy flexible storage options! This quad-door refrigerator equips two dedicated drawers for produce, a Select Case for dry foods or veggies, and a vacuum compartment. In addition, the freezer features a flexible Selectable Zone with customisable mode settings, a standard three-basket/bin section, and an automatic ice maker.
Ice On-demand: Enjoy refreshingly cool drinks on demand with the Hitachi fridge’s automatic ice maker. Just fill the water tank and let it handle the work. You can also activate the Quick Freezing mode and speed up the ice production by up to 24%5.
Sleek and Stylish: Upgrade your kitchen’s aesthetic with the Hitachi Quad Door Fridge Freezer’s luxurious black glass finish and flat doors with recessed handles. It also has an aluminium interior and energy-efficient LED lighting to create a brighter, cleaner space.
1 Vacuum means the space where the pressure is lower than the atmospheric pressure. The pressure in the Vacuum Compartment is about 0.8 atm, which is lower than the atmospheric pressure, hence, Hitachi considers this a vacuum.

3 Triple Power Filter that catches and removes 7 odour components (Tested by Hitachi. The type of odours: Methyl Mercaptan, Ammonia, Acetaldehyde, Trimethylamine, Propanal, Hexanal and Acetic Acid).
4 Thus also provides a sterilising effect. Combining the properties of Activated Carbon, Zeolite and Manganese Oxide (catalyst), the filter greatly reduces the percentage of odours present over time. Testing organisation: Boken Quality Evaluation Institute. Testing method: Film adhesion method (JISZ2801). Name of processing component: Filter. Sterilisation method: Application of oxidation catalyst to filter. Subject: Bacteria trapped in the filter. Test results: 99% sterilised after 24 hours, achieved using the filter alone. No effect on the environment and food inside the refrigerator.

A Fridge Designed with Families in MindWe bought this 638L 4 Door Fridge last month and I am absolutely loving our Hitachi 638L 4-Door fridge. From the moment we started using it, the design and functionality really stood out.
The fridge has a sleek, modern look that fits perfectly in our home, and the spacious interior makes organising food easy and convenient. One of our favourite features is the child lock, which adds peace of mind and makes it especially practical for a family household.
Overall, this fridge is stylish, well-designed, and very user-friendly. It has been a fantastic addition to our home, and we are extremely happy with its performance. Highly recommended.

Jappenese build qualityWhat sold me the fridge was the fact it is made in Japan. The construction of the plastic draws and glass shelves allowed for many adjustments to your particular needs. My model is 5 years old now and still behaves and looks new. No rubber falling off, shelves breaking or the door not quite closing problems unlike some fridges I put up with previously. The fridge motor is a inverter. Meaning it doesn't go on and off at full power but like driving a car revs the motor to just cool or really cools....most of the time it just idles barely running... Running costs are way down. I like having a fridge with glass front doors... Not shiny metal or painted or plastic.. Glass for easy cleaning with no marks or scratches.

Few things can be betterI bought mine 1 month ago, but few things come to my mind. First, the black mirror is really easy to see any marks and finger prints. Second, the selectable zone is amazing, but too big for chill/meat or soft freeze, then make the freezer zone which on the right Conner is too small, ideally I just need one or two shelf are chill/meat or soft freeze, not a whole section, otherwise freezer zone is not enough. Last, the 2 top glasses in the refrigerator seems like can not leave heavy items in the middle of it, it is shaking and feel unsafe or possibly break the glass.

Great fridge 👍🏻We purchased this refrigerator a week ago, and it has fully met our expectations. It offers a perfect combination of reliability and practical features. The design is aesthetically pleasing both inside and out, and it operates almost silently. We were particularly impressed with the ice maker, which does not require a water line, takes up minimal space, and seems more reliable compared to traditional plumbed ice maker solutions.
The only downside is the lack of lighting in the lower compartments (freezer), but this might also be the case with other brands.

Fantastic FridgeWe bought this fridge 2&1/2 years ago and absolutely love it. It's super quiet and hasn't missed a beat! The auto ice maker is worth the fridge's weight in gold, we've never run out. The vacuum draw is great for cold cut meats and breads. We went to buy a fridge that had water and ice in the door, but choose this one because of a few reasons... one being that it was Japanese made and also because we wouldn't lose any room inside the fridge because of the water/ice container.
I can't recommend this fridge enough.

Worth every single penny!I bought this fridge about two weeks ago. It’s great! There is so much space in each section and it’s so quiet. The best part is the customisable section which can become a fridge or a freezer. It allows for flexibility and personalisation depending on the family’s need. In our family we use a lot of fruits in daily life, so having an extra fridge section is super helpful. The sections have so much space as well. The shelves are removable and can be cleaned easily. I love the fact that it also has an ice maker. It’s super quiet and makes a lot of ice for parties and for personal use! This fridge is honestly a great buy! Would highly recommend!!

Sleek and functionalWe bought this fridge on a Boxing Day sale just recently. It wasn’t the fridge we originally had in mind, but after comparing features with other brands, we preferred the 638l black French door model. We liked the design and the interior layout. The doors aren’t as thick as some meaning that it doesn’t protrude as far into the kitchen space so that the doors can open properly. The ice maker is internal - it’s easy to use and it works well.
One side of the freezer is multipurpose which gives you the ability to customise for individual preferences, or as needs change.
