Fridges and Fridge freezers

Post by mikleed »

Didn't know until yesterday after buying a Fridge freezer 2 weeks ago suddenly stopped working on Sunday !, the reason being when they delivered a new one the bloke said, "this one will go wrong as well "! your outhouse is to cold and there is only one type that will work, a Beko you better change it again....what a pain ! all new to me, only Beko says that in Specification. the one we ordered was a Frigidaire.

Had to replace ours a few weeks ago. It also has to go in the outbuilding. Had a Beko as it specified that you could put it in an outbuilding. Well impressed, it uses half as much electric as the old one. Just hope it lasts as long. Had the old one about 20 years.

Mh........We tried two fridge freezers ! they would not work in outhouse it was to cold. Beko are the only make that work in low tempratures.
had this one two days......Perfect. I don't know why other makers can't keep up to the standard of Beko ?
