Bump this subject up.

I am looking for left hand fridge (open from right swing to left). I think the Japanese brand don't carry this. Any one have a left handle fridge?

Yeah, but is small 400L no fun.

I check the fridge @ Jusco and Harvey Norman. The opening and closing feeling is bad, just like loose hinge.

The more expensive model have an external black strip with some display. My BIL house just got one of these. I'll go for the older model if I am buying.

Just purchase a Sharp 61RHS @ Jusco MV. RM 2299 - 10%, with RM 210 Jusco voucher.

Yup. Member day until today. Can still go MV and buy today

How much do you think the shipment be?

Where got so cheap, unless your goods can be handle rough.

You need to add minimal 30% tax.

And S.Korea electric maybe 110v, and 60hz. Voltage is not a problem can get step down transformer but frequency may cause problem.

Please check what i wrote again. I mention "maybe" 110v, because in history they have 110 appliance too. Many now have use 220, but there is chance you get 110 too.

Also for motor driven items the frequency is important. Korean is using 60hz, 50hz or 60hz is not a problem if your appliance are running DC or being converted from AC to DC. AC motor that drive the compressor are dependent on the frequency. Unless the model you think of getting are Inverter which may not be a problem.

I been import lots of things from oversea since the stat of ebay, even Notebooks and Monitors all this are tax free so not a problem. Think I know what i am talking about. So don't look only the voltage check the frequency too.

Not all new/latest fridge & A/C are inverter.

If you need more exact answer ask forwarder company.

Maybe after CNY will be settle down.

My In-Law old fridge is samsung, is been using more than 20 years still running.

MT vs AT is comparing functional. I would think is like side vs centre dash panel in a car. Both have same function but at difference location.

Capacity?


Try Sharp.

Go shop compare and check price, is always cheaper. Try legend ss2. Or wait for aeon discount, worth it. Give 10% discount and get cash back voucher too.

Agree, buy already only ask but too late unless they shop allow return policy like in western country our Australia.

Got all the lighting and Ac does not mean switch on all day. Maybe he set 28c on Ac that act more like a fan then Ac. Switch on light for less than 2 hours.
