Has not been a great product, continually freezes food & drinks in the fridge compartment since we purchased it which means we have to throw away food items. Have had the control panel on the front of the fridge replaced previously but the problem persists. Aesthetically it looks good which attracted me to it, probably wouldn't purchase another Westinghouse product

My fridge is now 11 years old. It's had the usual problems for this model - the vegetable crisper lasted about 3 months before it broke and the temp/defrost controller has gone twice (the first time when it was 1 month out of warranty) resulting in over $600.00 worth of repair bills. Now it's done it again! I'd hate to think of the amount of food that's been binned each time. Another repair bill will put the repair value over the original price - not sure whether I'll bother. I'll think very carefully before buying another Westinghouse fridge.

It's discontinued but I just wanted to say there's nothing wrong with this fridge because other reviews are saying they had bad experiences with Westinghouse. Our crisper tray broke also but I guess that's just the way we treated it. It's regular plastic like every other fridge. I liked the electronic temperature control so there's no doubt what level you've got it at and nice blue light inside. Yayy! Nothing wrong with this Westinghouse fridge.

In the middle of the night, double-beep alarm would sound every 10 seconds. Turning the fridge off for a few minutes would stop it, but then after only a few minutes, beep beep! Back it comes. Nothing wrong with temps. If you get one of these, you will not sleep.

Vegetable drawer broke within 3 months. Door drink holder broke after 6 months. After 2 years small cracks developing on outside plastic door handles. Fridges are supposed to last 15-20 years. Hate to think what this will be like then. And we dont have kids who might be a bit harder on appliances. Cooling and freezing does work well however.

It has only had the temperature controller replaced in that time for $80, so given it cost $740 you would agree it has been darn good value. It is still sitting out there now doing it's thing.

I have done some searches regarding the dropped door issue and found due to the number of complaints that it might be a typical issue with Westinghouse fridges. The lower door hinge has dropped so much that the door won't close without force and it already scratched a large chunk out of the inner body of the fridge. The vegetable bin broke after just several months.... it doesn't surprise me, since the design and material seems flimsy and cheap. No issues with ice build-up though, the only reason why I haven't chucked it yet and bought a new one yet. But it still very annoying to see the door stay open when it hasn't been yammed close!

I would not buy this Westinghouse refrigerator again. The first Westinghouse fridge we bought failed to freeze/cool and was replaced. This second one after 2 years also appears to have the same failings.
An externally attractive looking refrigerator, with space and the internal appearance that all will work as it is designed to. Priced very competitvely against other brands.
The air flow cooling system for the fridge has failings and appears to ice up in the tubes. This stops the fridge compartment from working. This has now happened twice in the last 3 months. The service engineer's suggestion was to turn off the fridge for 12 hours if this occurs. The refrigerator is 2 years old.

I bought this fridge 2 years ago to replace an older Westinghouse and it has performed faultlessly. Food is always kept at the correct temperature, it is very quiet and the interior layout is thoughfully designed. I love the exterior controls, especially the bottle chill timer and the quick freeze option. The best feature of all though has to be the vibrant blue 'disco' lights running the length of the interior, very cool!
Design, quietness, quality, controls on the outside
Plastic vege bin feels a bit flimsy, but has never broken

Unless the mauufacturer can give me a permanent fix solution to this ongoing problem, I would consider this this to be the most unreliable appliance anyone could possibly think of purchasing
Looks good
Freezes up every 2 -3 months and the fridge compartment stops working altogether. It has a major problem with the duct system
