I am very interested of getting a Panasonic fridge with inverter since it is power saving but heard that the bottom freezer might pose some problem for old people, what else is the disadvantage of bottom freezer?

Need to bend down to take stuff from freezer. And due to the drawer design, the net capacity will be smaller.

The only thing I don't like about bottom freezer is that the containers (if you use) or the stuff you put in have to stack on each other. It will be a pain if you want to take out the nugget which is placed at the bottom.

I have 1, other than the drawer type freezer, the rest is good, veg compartment is higher, and because of the drawer freezer, I'll need to arrange the food in order and keep my freezer compartment neat, also disposed which ever food is expired....
Most important, save energy for such a big fridge.

+1. Energy saving is th emain concern to buy their fridge.

Dear All Refrigerator sifus

Currently I'm surveying fridge for my new home. Prefer side by side fridge. I'm eyeing on samsung but after i read all your post, seems like it's not a good choice?

Yesterday I saw this Samsung side by side fridge white color RM5599 at harvey norman. It's 543 litres

Is it a good buy? Or should I go for panasonic??

Each product have own unique features and also targetted consumers.

If you think bottom freezer not suit you, just go ahead with normal fridge and move on.
