Has anyone bot their fridge?? cosidering between this and Mitshibishi brand... I will definitely say that Fisher And Paykel is the mother of all fridges. My 12 years old Fisher And Paykel is still working well and much better than my 3 years old Maytag fridge. Maytag starts giving me problem even before 1 year. The only set back is the design of Fisher And Paykel is quite old fashion and their fridge don't have fancy functions, and of course the price. But sad to say I will be getting a Toshiba fridge instead of another Fisher And Paykel for my new house because I like the color ( gold ). I heard Mitshibishi also not bad but personally I have not used it before. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Has anyone bot their fridge?? cosidering between this and Mitshibishi brand... their fridge is considered among the best.... i got one F&P fridge. the beauty of F&P is that the walls of the fridge is thin, and yet is energy savings (4 ticks). this is the technology they have. the other brands, you see the walls. all very thick. and hence lesser interior space for you to use. However, i must tell you that the motor of F&P is panasonic or some japanese brand and the motor is made in Singapore. so, you guide for yourself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sillydolphin 0 Report post Posted September 30, 2008 In this forum, i have seen someone stating tt the compressor may nto be as lasting. Oh btw, the sales persons told me dun look at the number of Ticks. It actually depends on how u use the fridge... is it true? My hubby has used F&P washer for about 2 years... and he really like it. and we will be getting this for our new house... tt's why looking into the other F&P products too.. Do u all have any prices or stores of F&P fridge to share? Mega 7.5kg washer selling 798 i think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do u all have any prices or stores of F&P fridge to share? Mega 7.5kg washer selling 798 i think. actually when i saw that the motor or compressor is a japanese brand and made in singapore, i'm not worried at all, because it's made locally, and i trust local made stuff, compared to made in vietnam or thailand or china or malaysia look at philips TV or other products, all made in singapore, and is there any problem? of course, with 4 or 5 ticks, it still depends on how often u open and close the fridge door. if u seldom open doors, then save alot... if always open and close door, having 10 ticks, also no use...... ha...
