Which 3 doors? All 3 also got three doorsÂ
The SG37BPM lowest so far is at Rm2200 but I've never seen it before in anywhere but it is available.
I like this model as it has automatic ice maker. No ice cube trays needed
Let us know if you find it around, I'd definitely want to take a look at it. Capacity-wise you will be paying premium price though.

The two with French doors can be seen at HN.
R-WB490P2M is Rm2850 at HN
But the silver one is Rm2500
R-WB560P2M is around Rm3200
I've been avoiding the cupboard-style fridges. They seem too fancy to me. The prices don't seem too outrageous though.

Not sure where are the Bosch manufactured. Somebody mentioned Turkey. Somebody bought this model. Look back some of the post.
Yep saw that, but no idea whether they'd bought it or not. I read a thread on an Aussie forum earlier. They mentioned that the SXS Bosch's are designed and manufactured by Daewoo in Korea. There was some deal that happened some time ago. Let me bring it up here:

February 08, 2006
Daewoo Electronics Corp. announces tuesday it has entered a strategic partnership to supply refrigerators to German home appliance manufacturer BSH (Bosch-Siemens Hausgerate GmbH).
Under the $300 million deal, Daewoo Electronics will supply at least 100,000 side-by-side refrigerator units annually to Bosch-Siemens for three years, starting from this year.
More than 350,000 units will be exported to Italy, Germany, Britain, the United States and Austrailia over the three years, the company said.
Daewoo Electronics will be involved in the overall process of designing, developing, marketing and selling the products, even though products will be sold under its German partner's brand name, the company said
http://www.dwe.co.kr/english/pr/corporaten...view.asp?seq=29But it mentions only SXS and not the other models, no idea what their doing now since that was a long time ago. Saw another news article (2012) about Bosch and Electrolux bidding for Daewoo in S. Korea:
QUOTE
May 31 (Reuters) - Electrolux and Bosch are among five companies planning initial bids of $250 million or more for South Korea's electronics maker Daewoo Electronics, local media reported on Thursday.
Bids are expected to reach 300 billion Korean won to as much as 450 billion Korean won ($255 million to $382.6 million), depending on whether Daewoo's unused factory in the South Korean city of Incheon is included in the sale, according to the Maeil Business Newspaper.
Daewoo's leading creditor Woori Bank told Reuters the scale of the deal has yet to be decided, but will be cemented before final bidding takes place as soon as mid-July.
Electrolux had made an unsuccessful bid for Daewoo Electronics last year.
This is the creditors' sixth attempt to sell Daewoo Electronics, which focuses primarily on washing machines and refrigerators.
Electrolux declined to comment but confirmed its continued interest in Daewoo Electronics.
