Would you buy fridge from shopee ? actual sellers would be Audio House, Mega discount store etc.
if for those major shops like Best/ Harvey etc will you buy the extended warranty which is not cheap.

Why not ?

These products are not easy to fake.

Just compare the price.

So far I used a few brands. I quite like LG for the innovation and Hitachi for the build. Samsung and Panasonic are ok but not spectacular. The amdk brands I didn’t use before.

my parents bought the 1st gen one years back, still going strong... back then was super expensive.

i just bought the latest gen one for my new house but smaller size... i think the vacuum compartment is more like a good to have. but since i have been quite used to it, so i just buy also

Please avoid any panasonic fridge. Bought and 4 mths later keep rattling for no reason..and then not cold. Regret.

my panasonic fridge bought in 2012 has been using till now and still ongoing. In fact on the contary, my next fridge will still be panasonic.

Been using Panasonic fridges 20+ years ago. Current one 10 years already and still fine.

Considering Panasonic fridge, but Samsung’s 2025 model seems attractive for slightly less cost and better efficiency.
