Good no cheap.
Cheap no good.

For Pana, I will go for their air cond, fan, water heater, fridge

For Sharp, I will go for their fridge and small appliances

For LG, never a follower of their brand. Might consider their tv for future replacement.

There is no company produces product and approaches Media, Pana, Hitachi or LG asking if they are interested to put their logo on 

However, there are less known company that sell own product but also sell its product under well known company but only one company.

Which means people are not willing to repair them???? Or his dad lacked the know-how or parts to fixed these electronics filled fridges?

Recently I was given an old Elba fridge that was not working. So I google and pinpoint the fault down to the compressor with a faulty relay. Strange thing is the Elba fridge had a LG compressor. When I went to parts shop, they told me parts for LG need to quote and waiting time could take up to a month. After some thinking, went to nearby service center for Elba brand and they blasted me for saying it has a LG compressor and it was impossible. Finally managed to locate another parts shop and found a compatible relay for just RM9. Took the chance and got the fridge working again.

Got this last October at dadada. Same shop at ShitPee sell with RM300-500 higher price. 4 star inverter.

Here you go... onking
