tingshen 0 Report post Posted September 19, 2007 the electricity consumption is directly related to the nett capacity and the numbers of time you open the door lah. nothing to do with the numbers of doors......and different engine also have different power consumption too, even under the same brand. Usually the free standing one is more power consumption, i dunno why lah, but its size is just too HUGE for normal HDB, you need to spare at least 1.2-1.5 meter in width to handle these giant fridges......

Waste of my time actually. Even the sales doing demo on the TV also got limited knowledge.....I think the uncles in HongLiang are much knowledgeable than them....kns lah, GainCity is just trying to "ACT" highclass only......Just paid full to HongLiang yesterday for the B420V ($860) but I bought the Sharp washer for $460 lah, they actually matched the price and offer a further discounts As it's very near to my place, they even offered to deliver immediately lol! imagine it's already 7pm+....

MeToo 0 Report post Posted October 8, 2007 somebody in singaporebrides forums mentioned about the back wasn't covered and it could be a breading ground for mosquitoes......I finalised between two models : One is Panasonic NR-B402V using inverter technology and nice looking also. And another Mitsubishi MR-F47T. Could not decide what to buy.Then I read this forum and read abt the back side opening at bottom of Panasonic model. worried and decided to go for Mitsubishi. That stupid sales lady told me Mit is fully covered, don't have any opening at the back side. The showroom piece is near the wall, so I could not go behind the Mit fridge and see whether it's fully covered. But Panansonic is in rows and I verified it has opening. So I ordered Mit.Got shocked to see after delivery and installation - MITSUBISHI ALSO HAS OPENING AT THE BOTTOM OF BACK SIDE. Got Furious and contacted and complained to the shop. They told once delivered cannot take it back. Lessons learned - Never trust sales people; confirm yourself (Especially in my case the sales lady is a Mit promoter - I later found out that. All along she praised mit and said bad abt other makes - Shop is Mustafa center) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tingshen 0 Report post Posted October 8, 2007 there were no reply from that gals forum lol!you need that hole to get the water evaporate, otherwise, you need a tube like the washing machine to lead the water somewhere So far the fridge is quite OK. If you turn on the inverter mode, you can probably save around $2 per month in electricity, if my power meter do not fail me. will post more details in the power consumption. Average is around 80-90Watt. Full quick freezing mode can hit 140Watt easily. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MeToo 0 Report post Posted October 9, 2007 Must share share tips.. My fridge will only be delivered mid month. Guess you guys bought Panasonic... Good selection. I and my wife liked the design and finish of Panasonic. Also their inner trays are good...tempered glass. But got cheated by the sales promoter to go for Mit. you need that hole to get the water evaporate, otherwise, you need a tube like the washing machine to lead the water somewhereI saw some of the fridges are fully covered. They dun have any pipes like washing machine.Anyway, yesterday Mitsubishi called me and apologised for the confusion. They told me that sales lady told this by "slip of tongue" Just a caution to forummers : Both Mit and pana have opening at back side. But as per other experts I talked to, this opening will not be breeding ground for mosquitoes, since the compressor and evaporation piping will be hot and mozzi cannot live there. .
