Bottom freezer is more energy saving because cold air sinks, but the problem is small kid got access to ice cream easily. I will still get a bottom freezer, Mitisubishi stainless steel version.

yoongf 11 Report post Posted November 15, 2009 When open freezer door, cold air will spill into the open. Bottom freezer is usually a drawer, so when open the cold air will still trap inside the drawer instead of spill out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chrisngpg 0 Report post Posted November 15, 2009 Another consideration is that people normally open the fridge more than the freezer, so it's more ergonomical to have the freezer at the bottom, so you don't have to bend down all the time to see what's in your fridge.

My current fridge is a Panasonic bottom freezer bought about 7 years ago. serviced once cos my maid blocked the cold air outlets, hence causing the insides to form ice. other than that, it has served me well and has been very very quiet. think it's made in malaysia. need to change when moving house. Eyeing the Pana inverter MIJ multi door. Best Denki having a promotion at $2999. very often, promoters will come and push their own brands. Fridge is old technology, so not too worried about reliability. as long as suit your budget, dimension and needs, go for it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
