*Tested by Hitachi. Tested Model: R-WX74K (equivalent model to R-ZXC/ZX740R). The effect may differ depending on the types or freshness of food stored and does not extend to best-before and expiration dates. Vacuum means a space where the pressure is lower than the atmospheric pressure. The pressure in the Vacuum Compartment has approx. 0.8 atmospheric pressure, which is lower than the standard atmospheric pressure, hence, Hitachi considers this a vacuum.

The absolute best fridge I have ever ownedThis fridge is just the best. Its combination of compartments keeps my food fresher than any other fridge and the layout makes it so easy to see what you have in stock. Some of the reviews say that the fridge is a bit noisy by this has not been my experience - I can hardly hear it operating. I was a but wary of automatic ice makers as they do not have a good reputation for reliability but this one is simple and works really well. It is also covered by the excellent 5-year warranty.

Questions & Answers
Is the water for ice plumbed in?
Asked by: QQQQ
Thank you for your question. The Hitachi 735L Multi Drawer Fridge Freezer (R-ZX740RAXK) does not require plumbing for ice. Instead, it uses a 1-litre internal water tank that you manually fill. This tank supplies water for the automatic ice maker, making it a convenient option if you don’t want to connect a fridge to a water line.
