Need new fridge... any suggestions?
- Thread starter Mr Bogus

Whirlpool is the best I have known. Stay away from Fridgidaire. My mom spent 2k on a Fridgidaire and it went out in 2 years.
:choke: 3100 for a cheap one? 6G average price? holy icebox batman...
Ooh, SubZero, that's the Busa of refrigerators!

make your old one into a beer fridge for the garage
Only if it will spit out ice cubes at 150+ mph.
Wow. I went to lowes and picked out something in the middle price range with the features I wanted. Check out their scratch and dent section. You can usually get a great deal on appliances if you don't mind a little imprefection. Most of those imprefections you wont even see cause they are near the bottom or around the back of the appliance.
Good luck.

Im a director for the hayabusa of refrigeration Sub Zero.. I can tell you that you don't need to spend 3 or 4 grand up to 10 grand to have a good fridge... Kenmore and GE will do you just fine for at least 10 - 12 years.
10 years is basically the industry standard with the exception of SUB ZERO.. On avaverage our customers make 15-18 years with there units.
SCRATH AND DENT is ok just make sure you have a warranty & service contract..
Hope this info helps...

LG or the Kenmore Elite made by LG. Both have at least a 5 year system warranty.
Stay away from Whirlpool SXS and Kenmores made by Whirpool. Same goes for Fridgadaire, Amana and Maytag. They use Techumseh compressors which are prone to locking up.
Most refer's only have 1 year system warranties now unless you buy the premium model lines. Ge's are pretty good too, but a bit overpriced and expensive to repair.

+1 .....check consumer reports, that should put you on the right track
Find a Sears outlet and buy a Kenmore.

I made the mistake of handing my wife the check book when we redid the kitchen, dining room, and living room. If i had put 1/3 as much into the shop when i built it, I would have a man cave that makes Mr Shelby green with envy..
