Help me buy a brand new refrigerator

[WallyWest]

Has anybody heard of inverter type refrigerators that, in the event of inverter circuitry failure, will still function as a conventional ref?

I just looked at some refs at a mall appliance store. There was this Condura Negosyo Ref which the salesperson said had "pcb inverter". He furhter explained that should the inverter malfunction, the refrigerator will still operate as a conventional refrigerator.

I searched the Condura website and found no such feature. I also haven't found any "pcb inverter". So, is there such a thing?

Legit ba yung mga nagbebenta ng ref sa olx? Testing is at cash and carry makati.

Yes legit naman. Bought a ref, and 3 aircon sa kanila. My brother got another alos plus extended warranty

Just a tip, go to ansons cash and carry. Look for the item you want. Ask ansons the lowest price for spot cash. Bababa nila price nila. Parang magic word nila yun spot cash.

After getting the quote, ask the olx people how much they are selling it to you. Ansons din nilala kukunin, complete with receipt.

Totoo ba yung sa LG, yung inverter module nakadikit sa compressor so pag nasira eh pasok ba sa 10years warranty? Nagcheck ako sa shangrila ng g.e. Tapos sa ansons yung fisher paykel tapos biglang may sumulpot na mag LG daw ako. Wala pa kasi ako tiwala sa inverter pag ref. Pero sa aircon ok na.

Try Samsung refs ... The newer inverter models have built-in AVR already ...

Asked the LG vs Samsung question a chef cousin of mine who's also w/ the appliance industry in the US....Answer? Samsung for phones, LG for domestic fridges. Mexican-made Whirlpools currently have dwindling inventory. Trump-induced. Professional? So many good choices. Thermador, SubZero among em.

The Samsung ref we got with built-in AVR has thicker walls due to insulation ... Helps during power failures ...

No disrespect to anyone's opinion, sir. Years of 1st hand exposure & experience in various kitchens can give some valued perspective. He's now a domestic & professional kitchen consultant. Just sharing what was shared.
Products & brands do change over time. Unfortunately, programmed obsolescence seem to be modern tech's common pairing now over durability.

Recently got a 2-door 8.7 cu. ft. Condura Negosyo Inverter refrigerator. I'm kind of disappointed with the storage space because despite the large exterior, there doesn't seem to be any significant change in storage compared to our old 6 cu. ft. ref. Freezer is large though and the shelves are made of the old style white plastic that's more durable than the clear hard plastic of other refs. It's also manual defrost which the salesperson claims makes it more economical due to the absence of heating coils in auto defrost refs.

well, we can't really blame the manufacturer...
heh heh.

[WallyWest]

Yeah, got fooled coz an empty ref looks HUGE.

Well, anything smaller than a ref that's built like a 2-door closet would probably be too small anyway.

[dr. d]

so how did the 8.7 cu.ft get to be smaller than the 6 cu. ft?
