Talking about nice-to-have deep fryers earlier on, this is definitely a must-have in every home kitchen. A refrigerator. What is your criteria when selecting a refrigerator ? Do you search for any refrigerator reviews before buying your refrigerator, just like how you search for food/eating reviews before you decide to dine-out at a particular eatery ?
For me, my refrigerator MUST BE frost-free. I recalled throwing away all the dairy products in my refrigerator back in California when the thermostat control of the defrost function gone haywire one day. Whatever was kept in the fridge was not cold. You know the feeling of grabbing something out of the refrigerator and it feels room-temperature ? B-A-D. There is no lack of frost-free refrigerators in these days. Just going by "Defrost" in refrigerator reviews, you will find 60+ refrigerators models that are frost-free/automatic defrost. Of course, if you are a person who sticks to a particular brand when it comes to selecting a refrigerator, refrigerator reviews allows you to ascertain that too.
when buying fridge, i definitely avoid the salesman's recommendation..more often they push on buying stuffs they will touch higher commissions :-(
ReplyDeleteI have always rented so I have been stuck with the tiny fridge that is in the apartment. Ah, it would be nice to have a bigger more modern fridge.
ReplyDeleteMy wife makes the decision on what fridge to buy, thereby saving me the headache. After all, she is the one making use of it most of the time.
ReplyDeleteIt seems like she has made the right decision each time. Our last Mitsubishi fridge lasted us more than 18 years without any problem and it is still going strong.
The new Mitsubishi 6-door fridges are not cheap though. They easily cost upwards of S$2000.
dhanggit, i avoid stores with salesmen, usually I just walk away..ha!
ReplyDeleteI usually just do my "research" before I buy and when I enter the stores, I more or less know what I wanna get!
kevin, I do have a small fridge now in the rented apt. Can't buy much.
victor, Mitsubishi makes quite good fridges. Me too have a Mitsubishi fridge back in my own home(SG) and even now in the
rented apt in TW.
interesting blog. It would be great if you can provide more details about it.
