Refrigerator brand

[Lè Crayons]

My Samsung fridge gave problems after just 3 years. Last week I called the Samsung technician to check and he had to change the fan which is connected to some board. Costed me $170 including labour charges. Stay away from Samsung.

Top up a bit to buy only the ‘Made in Japan’.
Main fridge at home is this model, no problem at all. Hitachi Inverter R-ZXC740KS.

What about Whirlpool? Tiagong is reliable too?

Fridge isn’t rocket science pay $6k doesn’t sound sane unless warranty for life

Yes, sadly China's pte businesses were so flushed with money last 10yrs and they bought many trusted brands we know of.
Volvo and Polestar, Proton and Lotus now belongs to Geely Chinese
Toshiba, Aiwa Chinese
Motorola belong to Lenovo
GE appliances belongs to Haier Chinese...
Damn sad **** my childhood Aiwa Walkman and discman is now Chinese company

I had the aiwa gold. Damn shiok haha.

about 3 years back i bought mitsubishi online after stack coupons (difficult) , hit $9xx region .... retail store is 1200

new fridge immediate drop power bill by around $17 monthly
can hear the compressor motor got time to rest after 10pm ... while the old fridge was 24/7 running motor
new fridge gotta put thermometer in and turn the knob to maximum ....... the default setting not cold enough

$17 per month is $200 per year electricity savings.

For those with "no tick" old fridge running 20+ years and happy with it, dont forget electricity consumption is part of your running cost.

Old tech jiak more electricity. My resale unit had an old ac probably 15 yrs old or more. Working perfectly, no leak and cooling. Every night all 3 units used. Electricity came to around $250+. Nevermind, I monitor again. Around the same for second month.

After calculating the cost of electricity for newer systems, I could save quite abit even though I need to spend on a new system.

After installing new system, my electricity dropped by nearly half ie I save around $120 monthly or around $1.5k a year. If I use the system 2 years, the cost of my new system 3 is recovered with some change left. The rest of the usage is savings.

Fridge wise, similar. Parent place old fridge gave way after 20 years. Change to some inverter. Electricity almost half.

 

[Mclairs83]

using Hitachi for about 3yrs already.

so far no issues.

previous fridge is panasonic.. used for 8yrs.. i sold to the new owner.. they stiil using it.

so probably 11yrs liao?

My Amara side-by-side fridge has a fan inside to blow air from freezer to fridge side.
It worked well over 20 yrs and still working. Amazing.
