tintongman 0 Report post Posted May 24, 2010 Hi, I am getting a new fridge and is choosing between Samsung (Korea Made) & Panasonic Inveter (Thailand made). Would appreciate if anyone can advice which is a better choice. Thank you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

htng 1 Report post Posted June 4, 2010 (edited) is this okay http://panasonic.com.sg/web/pid/8198/Spec, i like black color, mustafa selling $499? megastore selling? tough choice right? Invertor save more power and I believe future platform will be invertor. The question is only how much poweru save and whether you are willing to do your part for the environment. To me, korea vs Thailand don't play a huge part. Thailand are good since panasonic qualify and approve them as manufacturer. We cant say Thailand made Toyota are worst than Korea Hyundai or KIA? End of the day, technology and quality control for Japanese company are good. I always feel jap made products they are proud of. I look at Japanese engineers and they show great pride in their work. I feel the koreans are catching up to be as good Edited June 4, 2010 by htng Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

het 0 Report post Posted July 11, 2010 Just to share, Audio house is having display set sale for Panny 2Dr fridge Inverter Series NR-BY551XS ($799) & NR-BY601XS ($899). I'm eyeing on this model for a few weeks oredi and usual price is $11xx & $12xx at places like MEGA. Will cost slightly more in BD & HN. Do act fast if interested cos not all display sets are in good aesthetic condition, hence the lower than usual price Cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
