Shopee sellers: Anyone have bought fridges from Shopee before? if buy from shopee, the delivery will not do the installation right? So buyer has to do it themselves is it? How about the 10-years or 12-years warranty? Can we still get it from the manufacturer?

Panasonic NR-BX471CPSM

Any comment on this model?

Agreed. My current fridge is also a Panasonic, and has been running for at least 16 years, not a single incident. The only reason want to change now is because more people stay here now so need to get a bigger one, it is 300L. I'm looking for at least 420L now. It is also a bottom freezer model type, so we are used to it already.

Actually, bottom freezer not really consume more power significantly:

(Bottom Freezer) NR-BV320XSMY
322L, 374 kWh/year

(Top Freezer) NR-BL342PKMY
325L, 360 kWh/year

Any shop that's known to give the most reasonable prices for fridges, area near Serdang, Puchong, and Kajang?

I plan to get this:
PANASONIC NR-BX471WGKM

Hmmmm i guess i'll just get a small fridge then. Actually wanted to get 2/4door fridge so that i could measure kitchen cabinet accurately and wont leave much space on the sides, but since im staying alone, i guess i just get a normal top/btm mount fridge first n lets see if ID could make removable cabinet (beside fridge) incase i chg into bigger fridge in the future.

I have purchased the Panasonic bottom freezer for one week already. The fridge works very well so far, but it will produce this loud noise a few times a day. When it started, we could hear it from the staircase (double storey link house, the fridge in the back kitchen), after a few seconds, it goes lower but still audible, and quiets down after a few minutes. There is this white plastic frame at the back of the fridge,  pressing it will dampen the sound, if I let go the hand, the noise will come back. Other times, the fridge is very quiet.

Look at the back.mov

For comparison, our 16-year old old fridge (also a Panasonic bottom freezer) has much lower motor noise, we could never hear it from the staircase. According to my mother who is at home most of the time, this occurs 5 to 6 times a day.

Is there any cause for concern?

The tech just came and left, without calling me first, luckily I'm at home on a Saturday afternoon.

Showed him the video recording with the noise, and he did some adjustment at the back. Asked me to observe and report if the noise comes back again. Said free service within the first year.

So, kudos to Panasonic's service so far. Do keep the receipt and warranty card, he needs to photo them before performing any job.

Quick question peeps. Is there any difference between freezer top / freezer bottom? Trying to figure out which type to buy now.

Or its just a preference thing unlike the washing machine (top / front load) where front load is preferable?

Whats the cons & pros for 2doors vs 4doors?

Yea, i was planning to get either tis 2 brand or haier, but i guess i will go for haier due to budget n the matte surface. Haha!

PH store? name of the store > PH?

Hi Sifus, I’m looking for a bottom freezer refrigerator, prefer reliable brand such as  Panasonic etc. The cabinet size is 1850mm (H) X 750mm (W) X 610mm (D). Any recommendations? 🙇🏻‍♀️🙇🏻‍♀️🙇🏻‍♀️

How about this? Anyone using? 😄

Perhaps you could drop by Mitsubishi Electric HQ in PJ. They have all model as display in the showroom.

Saw from this owner's from FB Hitachi refrigerator which bought in January. Then leaking problem since February till now the door fall apart. Repair worker may not assembly back properly after fixed? The owner claimed the door can be closed tight even she went to purchase those fridge door locker. Before manage to use the locker, the door fall down.

The owner now don't wanna accept this brand even Hitachi offer to replace with new one.

Hi Jhleo1, thanks for the reply.. The door frame is about 80cm wide but like what ceo684 mentioned after opening the door, it'll eat up about 6cm of space there.. So thinking as of last resort, can i just dismantle the fridge doors.. Maybe will head over the harvey norman and ask   
Haha yeah thats right thanks so much ceo684, really a headache, lucky didn't buy it spontaneously maybe will have to downsize from here



Initially I was thinking of getting this Sharp SJF85VMSS.. But the dimensions are 892w x 1720h x 771d mm

From what i heard of is that Japanese brands are usually reliable? May I know the after service of Mitsubishi & hitachi here in Malaysia?

Anyone have experience with Teka refrigerators?

 

Thanks bro! The only fridge that I like from panasonic would be NR-DZ601VGKM (78.5CM depth) but unfortunately it too large for the door opening to my wet kitchen.. 80cm door width, with doors open would be around 76cm at the very best.. So only option for me would be either rmove the fridge doors or remove my wet kitchen door

So far would be the best for my usage would be the Mitsubishi but unfortunately not too much review on it.. The MR-LX68EM with 63.5cm depth
