Great large bottom mount fridge

published

Love this fridge. It is extremely large with tonnes of room inside. No fuss, no awkward shelves or wasted space with gimmicks. The shelves are super easy to remove and clean. Or just as easy to clean whilst in the fridge. The finish is great. Runs fairly silently. Love it!

don't waste your money

I bought this fridge less than 12 months ago. In the last couple of weeks the fridge hasn't felt cold. Have bought a thermometer and it is sitting on 13 degrees. Freezer still works fine and it appears others are having same problem with the fridge. This should not happen for a fridge less than 12 months old

Bought it in February. Nothing but problems

published

We feel we bought a lemon with this fridge in February 18. It worked well when first bought then during the night we thought we had a helicopter in the kitchen. Took Kelvinators technician 4 days to come and fix the problem. During the wait it started working again out of the blue after all the food had perished. They tried to say there was nothing wrong with it. Same thing happened twice since. We called again and thankfully they are sending someone else for a second opinion. Hopefully to have it resolved. We still can’t work out what caused the problem.

Awesome big fridge

published

We absolutely love this fridge. Heaps of room, runs quiet, looks fantastic, doesn't use alot of power. I got the fridge up the top and the freezer down the bottom and I'm really happy with the set up. We can't fault it to be honest and appliance on line delivered it to our home and took the old fridge away. Very happy all round.

I came back to you by email on the day you wrote that comment and you never ever got back to me!!!! Electrolux and Kelvinator don't care about customer... they just pretend with a fake message saying they will... but they don't!!!

Good fridge for the price

published

Have had this refrigerator/freezer combo for around 5 months. Very quiet, fridge can be set to a very low temperature (practically to freezing point). Glasses shelves are easy to remove and clean. Freezer maintains temperature very well but is not quite as spacious as it seems. Silver colored model exterior shows fingerprints prominently.

Might have had same issue. Fan is broken. Sits behind freezer back panel. The freezer will work but the cold air is not being blown going into fridge. Had it fixed. technician said it was an issue with this series of fans that were used. Design fault.

I just thought, have you gone in to the fridge, and slide the temperature things into the middle. The fridge setting may be to low
