danny,

better u buy bigger fridge except u have plan to change it near future...

Bear in mind, ppl hardly change fridge except the current fridge is too small..

so, better invest a little big to get bigger capacity & u can use it for life...

Actually for me personally i think is depends on budget and i don think fridge can use for life as it will spoil

Yeah "for life" is a very indefinite concept. If can get 10 years out of a fridge is not bad already.

Thanks everyone..

Thanks safetylance ,.. Will Consider to take the Bigger one.. Taller by 150mm - 390L , can get around RM1300.00 ,
The 350L one around RM1200 , so, RM100 Upgrade onli..... & Clareen ... Yes , Budget is a concern.. & also the Size.. if the Fridge too Big , Then My kitchen will be Cramp.. My condo unit 950Sqft. onli..

& i do agree . if can get 10 Years out of it consider very Good Already...

to some extent, i agree that mitsubishi fridge seems better than the toshiba.. i love the foldable tray.. the doors also feel solid.. but, it is at least a few hundred ringgits more expensive than toshiba coz the parts are imported from japan while the toshiba is from thailand.. in the end, i bought the toshiba glass door because for capacity to capacity comparison it is cheaper. plus it has 5 star energy rating too (high energy efficiency as according to suruhanjaya tenaga)

How about Sharp fridge? I fell in love with their Hi Deco series.

Now my turn wanna buy fridge with one door. any suggestion where is buy is cheap?

Hi, I am surveying to buy a New Fridge too..

I am Considering of Buying by
1. TOSHIBA ( 350L ) Model : GR M35MD . RRP @ RM 1429.00
2. TOSHIBA ( 390L ) Model : GR M39MD . RRP @ RM 1469.00

I manage to get Price around RM 1200 for ( 350L ) & RM 1300 ( 390L ) after some bargaining @ those Electrical Shop .... as i Check it is Cheaper Than HYPERMARKET , COURTS , HSL... Becos can Bargain mar.... I think there's a Lot of ELectrical SHop @ PJ ...

I suggest wat u do is Shortlist you Desired Model .. & Bargain for a Few Price from a Few Shop.. then Go For the Best Deal... hahaha....

I'm buying new fridge. just wonder what to do with old fridge? 5yr++ very difficult to sell so one option it to throw it away.... cannot simply put in the bin right?

i think you can sell in cheaper price sure have people want to buy.

Go ask electrical shop whether they want to buy? Some do so that they can re-sell ... similar to 2nd hand car business...

thanks it will be in lelong soon

Need some feedback from you guys.

I notice that some fridge got different configuration. Some has the freezer on top and some at the bottom. (In fact, only Panasonic has the ones at the bottom that I know of). I know that the advantage of the bottom freezer is that it is easier to take things like vegetables without bending down. But the disadvantage is (I heard from salesman) that the fridge will not be as cold as compared to top freezers. Is this true? Also, what other Pros and Cons when comparing Top and Bottom Freezers in fridges?

Am looking for refrigerator. Personal preference on Toshiba and Sharp. Any comment on the following model and any idea on the price?

Toshiba 2 Doors Fridge GR-M43MD
Toshiba 2 Doors Fridge GR-MG43MD
Toshiba 2 Doors Fridge GR-M47MDV
Toshiba 2 Doors Fridge GR-M48MD
Toshiba 2 Doors Fridge GR-MG48MD
Sharp 　Hi.Deco Series Fridge SJ-T45RSL
Sharp 　 Hi.Deco Series Fridge SJ-T50RSL
Sharp 　Hi.Deco Series Fridge SJ-T56RSL

cant go wrong with tosh. got 1 at home ..5 yr old still runninng good. dont go for samsung - techie ppl told me, even my mom 's samsunng broke down, hard to fixed

just got the quoted for Sharp SJPT-61RHS - RM2,050. good buy?

but found out from sharp website, there was another model - SJ-T61RSL. which one is the newer model?

I think the price is quite standard cause I have just bought the same model for RM2000.

I did survey a few brands and I found out the most value for money brand is SHARP. With the same amount of money, u get larger storage plus 5 star energy saving rating.

I am looking for fridge around 660l to 700 l.
Here are my research

Sharp SJPT71RHS
- its not the latest model (07 or 08 model) , but both shop sales recommend this, and 3 of my frens are using this as well
- 660l
- senq RM2699
- Best denki RM2799
- Heard can get cheaper in smaller shop


Samsung RT72SBSM
- Best Denki RM2569

Hitachi RZ650AM
- 660 l
- SenQ RM2399

Hitachi R-Z700AM(SLS)
- Best Denki RM2599

Hitachi R-Z700AMX
- Best Denki RM2999

LG GR-M712YSQ
- Best Denki RM2999
- Just arrive few weeks ago (2009 model)

In the international market, LG and Samsung are more famous.

PANASONIC- is a very good quality refrigerator which have function of twin bio system which can effectively reduce
smelly n kill germs n bacteria .but however due to panasonic desigh that freezer located at bottom,
it makes unperfect...because in freezer compartment,we have to put foods in drawer that makes us
hard to open it n close it...we have some case tat customer broken the drawer n find us to order it.

SHARP _ is a ver well-known brand refrigerator tat i think our old parents will say yes to sharp fridge...n with 2-doors
fridge,it got many model likes:happio series (economical):very basic n cheap price model
,"middle " model which is "plasmacluster" model fridge n a classic n elegant model fridge
N SHARP 2-doors fridge is rated as 5 star energy efficiency fridge...approved by suruhanjaya tenaga

TOSHIBA-very worthful fridge because for larger fridge,got many spec tat other brand fridge cannot compare likes:
UV-LED CHILLER ROOM, AG+ VEGETABLE CRISPER (new model),LED fridge lamp (new model).....
n elegant, stylish appearance

LG - elegant look which is flat doors tat can match every kitchen room ....green ion deodorizer,(for certain model)

SAMSUNG - very cheap n economical fridge ....very simple spec actually
