Am tempted to get this panasonic inverter fridge too...... as I like the magic top......I've used one before (in a rented place) and I thought to myself "I should be getting one like that". Suppose based on an assumption that there'll be a 20% saving in energy consumption and a $140 annual bill for a conventional fridge, this will be a worthwhile choice if it lasts you for more than 7-8 years. Anyway, I should be making my decision soon....in 2-3 weeks time. Happy shopping!
