I need to buy a new fridge with a freezer on the bottom. What brand do you recommend if reliability and long lifespan is the main priority above all? Don't suggest me french door, side-by-side fridges, I'm looking for something like picrel but probably taller.
>>107881001that is a poor person fridge
>>107881010I don't live in the US, we don't do french door or side-by-side here
>>107881001Electrolux always works. I have two top and bottom fridge/freezer combos from them and one have chugged along for 16 years without issue, the other one reaching 11 years soon.

Is it true that in America you must have a double fridge with ice cube maker in it or everyone will secretly judge you and think you're poor?
They're all shit. I bought a samsung about 15 years ago and it's still just about working, had to clean the coil off last year for the first time.
>>107881001sub zero is pretty reliable but on the more expensive end, you get what you pay for though.
>>107881001Panasonic. Or a hitachi, mine is a bit over 10 years and still works fine.
Is LG, by any chance, any good? Since it's on the OP pic, although I didn't pick it on purpose.
>>107881001Liebherr for the best. (comes with 10 year warranty)Bosch for the 2nd best.
>be CEO of liebherr>a heavy duty crane company>want to buy a fridge>none of them are up to your standard>fuck it i'll make my own fridge>creates a brand new division of liebherr who's only purpose is to make the best refrigerators and freezers Liebherr is the best fridge brand. Or Miele since Miele just buys Libeherr units and rebrands them.
>>107881001i'd say samsung for build quality and reliability. but mine picked up a weird smell a year in. a opened up the port on the back and cleaned off the coils with diluted bleach and that helped.
>>107881311LMAO noSamsung and LG and dogwater trash. In fact just stay the fuck away from anything Korean when it comes to appliances.
>EuropeanLiebherr (Miele), Bosch, AEG>AmericanSub-Zero>JapaneseHitachi>AustralianFisher & Paykel>Koreannope>ChineseHaier (but not enough data on reliability yet to give a recommendation)
>>107881001Is there any actual advantage to having the freezer on the bottom?
>>107881021so I guess ice maker and water dispenser won't be an issue, you can buy whatever poverty models are available and it will be fine. they are all made by the same chinese factory anyway.
>>107881568when the freezer fails it doesn't dump defrosted ice water into the fridge compartment.
Whatever you do don't get one with an ice-maker or a computer in the door.
>>107881289incredibly dogshit website and product media. why can't euros do web design at all? everything is a fucking mismatch of standards across various countries with france and switzerland having some of the worst.
>>107881040>>107881059Mine werks for 18 years but tomorrow I'll finally replace it for a modern model with no frost and inverter. The frost was a real pain last year.
>>107881072No the mark of poverty is not having a water dispenser
>>107881001buy the cheapest large refrigerator with no bells and whistles. the ones with the freezer on top. they last the longest. don't buy samsung.
>>107881001Anything with a Bosch compressor>Liebherr>Miele>Neff>Siemens>Bosch>Zanussi
>>107881001>What brand do you recommend if reliability and long lifespan is the main priority above all?I've had very good results with a Samsung model.
>>107886282I recommend Bosch as well, but they are expensive as fuck. They are very, very quiet though.
>>107881001My fridge has been in the family since the 60's and still werks. I know I know, sounds like jeet poverty but it's true.
>>107881010>>107881072>>107881570>>107883396>>107883921To be fair Eurotrash (and other poor "people") have major spiritual problems that they don't even understand and are completely unaware about.Demons literally afflict their bodies and minds, preventing them from being properly functional members of society.
>>107883921No thanks not adding another point of failure in my plumbing system
>>107883921wtf is a water dispenser a water filter? the fancy ones not cheap plastic chinkshit
>>107881040our electrolux is 44 years old, r12 and a danfoss compressor, it just werks
Our fridge only lasted like 30 years, how the fuck are you all getting 40+ years from them
>>107881001Buy a HiSense and don't fall for the fridgadier or whirpool meme.
>>107881001All I know is LG and Samsung are shit.
>>107881001What is this? Something other than computers on the tech board? Off topic, get outta here!
>>107881010What in the FUCK is a "poor person fridge" supposed to be? Is there such a thing as a "rich person fridge"?
>>107890884
>>107890884>Is there such a thing as a "rich person fridge"?He means side-by-side and/or french door fridges like they use in america
>>107890409THIS. I had an LG French door and it basically quit working in about 3.5 years. Having replaced it now, Im not sure it ever worked right day one. LG is absolute garbage
