Buying a refrigerator

**kimpOy** · October 25th, 2004 02:02 PM

kapag mahilig kang mag host ng party, bday/get together dapat malaki ang bilhin mong ref,

kasi kapag maraming tira na foods for sure sa ref ang punta niyan, lalo na kapag pot luck party, tapos sa iyo maiiwan lahat ng left overs.

ah no frost pala ang sagot ko diyan, pero kahit no front dapat linisin mo pa rin ang ref para hindi na deterioate agad

no frost siempre. and kung pang family yung gamit ng bibilhin mo don't settle for anything smaller than 10 cubic feet, imho.

up ko lang tong topic na 'to... may tatanungin lang ako, medyo OT nga lang.

S.O.P. ba talaga sa mga appliance stores na kapag bumili ka ng unit nila, you have to avail of their Warranty? Lagi kasi ganun. Like for example, yung tag price, say P15,000. Tapos pag bibilihin mo na, sabihin nung salesperson, additional P1000-1500 daw for 1 year or 3 years warranty from their Store. tapos pag chi-neck mo yung warranty coverage, meron palang manufacturer's warranty na yung unit, at yung warranty ng store will not cover anything that is already covered by the manufacturer's warranty. Parang rip off yung ginagawa ng stores imho. Nung tinanong ko sila kung pwede bang hindi mag-avail ng warranty, sabi nung salesperson, kailangan daw kasi yun para daw sa proteksyon ng buyer.

bro... every unit comes already with a manufacturer's warranty.

AFAIK - warranty extension lang ang i-offer dapat nila (say from 1 year to 3 years).

kung hindi ganun, eh baka racket lang yan.

semi or no frost would be fine.. since kailangan mo din naman linisin ref mo paminsan-minsan.. also get the one with the highest EER (energy efficiency ratio).. this is the one written in yellow paper usually pasted on the door of the ref while on display...

OT.. ano ba tawag nyo dito - ref, fridge or pridyider...

...agree with M2, optional lang ang pagkuha ng extended warranty.

Just get a no-frost ref. for less hassle.

jolog1 - Suggest that you get the No Frost fridge dahil less hassle and no big effect on electric bills. (Also, you might consider getting a bigger one, with a big freezer).

rsnald - Optional lang ang extended warranty for appliances. Never got one.
