Reversible door?

published

Good fridge for reasonable price. Its features perfectly meet all our requirements. Like the bottom mount, energy rating, and adjustable temperature in different zones.

The only disappointment was that we could not reverse the door. One of the screws appeared to be very tight. We destroyed two screwdrivers, and it is still on place.

Perfect in every way

One of the best fridges I have ever owned. Bought it on special at the Good Guys and have never looked back. Plenty of space in the fridge and I love the freezer at the bottom with the drawers. Very quiet. Easy to keep clean and I have had o issued with the temperature in the fridge or freezer. Overall I would recommend this fridge

Good looking fridge with plenty of space well designed...but can be noisy at times, but we can't complain because we got the fridge at a discount price from jb hi-fi. Easy to clean keeps the Veggies crisp and the drinks cold.. I like the idea of having the freezer at the bottom...

Only this worse than the fridge is the customer service

published

When we got this the temp through out the fridge was no good at all our food was making us so sick then it takes them over a month to fix it only for it to stuff up again we lost hundreds of dollars worth of food and so much stuffing around trying to get a refund. This brand is through Fisher and paykel. I recommend avoiding these people at all costs!! Fridge is also really noisy!!

Awesome product. Lots of space and very quiet.

published

Quiet and easy to clean. Enough space for a big family yet value for money. I can't wait for the electricity bill to compare with my last fridge I had. Bought it on special at good guys and worth every penny. One of the containers had issues but they fixed it at one.

Neat, energy efficient fridge with thoughtful design.

published

This was a downsize away from a large two door model. The design of this fridge allows for a large amount of accessible storage with 3 drawers in the freezer compartment and 2 drawers in the refrigerator section. The lower drawer in the refrigerator is called "My Storage" and the temperature level can be individually adjusted for this drawer. This means it can be tailored to be used for drinks, meat storage, etc.
The fridge is quiet and easy to clean with glass shelves. Many useful settings and adjustments including holiday mode for absence.

Does the job for its price

published

Loud on occasion, usually when it is hot. The freezer drawers make a huge difference when organizing, particularly due to the variable sizes.

The water tap is a bit touchy, but does the trick. The tank could also be a little bigger.

Definitely a worthwhile fridge for its price range.

Great fridge for the price

published

It works really well and the feature of the chilled drawer is a bonus. It looks sleek in our kitchen. The freezer drawers are a little small for us but we are happy with this purchase. We bought it from Appliances Online which was a great price and included delivery.

So far so good

published

The performance of the fridge is good. It can store as many foods as we provide. It's sufficient for a small family. The energy efficiency is the main reason I purchased it. This product can maintain a good temperature.The design is pretty and fit our home perfectly well. I like it.

Look else where

published

The fridge performance is good overall, but is let down by the draws, my crisper draw falls out, the cabinet is to wide in that area and the draw falls out of its guides or jams, raised the issue with warranty agent, had 2 service calls with less than acceptable outcomes.
I hope it can be sorted out.

1month later
Haier have replaced the fridge with a new one, without to much hassle, just a photo and a brief explanation in a email about the problems. I was happy with that as the fridge performs well and without the dodgy draw its even better.

Good brand fridge

published

We purchased the fridge from harvey norman two years ago. Fridge was cheap price. So far there has been no issues. Fridge maintains good temperature and is quiet. We purchased this product only because of price but so far we are quite impressed with the product. We cant recommend Haier highly enough.

Not the best design

published

Ok fridge,design could be better as the drawers don't open properly in fridge.sounds quiet..freezer is quite tiny..easy to clean,nice glass shelves..easy to clean outside of fridge,nice compact design..crisper drawers have a tendency to freeze food so adjusting temperatures is often required.probably wouldn't buy this fridge again..otherwise size is good overall

An underrated brand in Australia

published

Apprently Haier is a contract manufacturer for a lot of big brands in Australian maket. The fridge looks good, has a nice finish, maintains good temperature, is quiet and is very efficient. Consumes less electricity than my erstwhile Haier 240 litre fridge! And when I bought it, was the cheapest of the lot by a considerable margin. Highly recommended.

So far so good

published

I bought this fridge/freezer back in March 2017 and so far I have been pleased with it except, as mentioned by another, the fridge and freezer doors are not auto close. I also find it is difficult to get the drawers to pull out sufficiently. Other than those points I have found it to be good overall, no concerns with maintaining the set temperatures in the different compartments. So far it has been good value for money and the service from Appliances Online was excellent as always.

Excellent Value for Money

published

Very Very good Fridge. Bought from JBhifi on specials last year for $750 (approx)
I always find Bottom Mount fridge more practical than the top mount fridge, hence looking specifically for this category of refrigerators only.
It's fuzzy logic control - Stainless steel colour - excellent build quality and spaciousness with 3 year warranty for $750 ...cannot get better than this.I highly recommend it

HBM450SA1 (Silver)

Front control panel has stopped working, any way to get it going again

There is a tiny little circuit board about 1cm square that resides at the top of the fridge door. My guess is that this detects when the door is opened. The lights on the front panel only work when the door is opened as you know. So maybe the lights don't know the door has been opened? I assume the temperatures etc are all OK? Carefully take the top plastic panel off the top of the door and check out the circuit board to see if it is properly connected. Maybe spray the connections with WD40 Contact Cleaner. Note not the regular WD40 but the WD40 Contact Cleaner. This stuff is fantastic. Good luck.

I've not encountered that issue. In fact I am thrilled with this fridge. It looks small but it's an entertainers fridge.
