Really a great fridge - very large interior space, well thought-out and useful interior layout, highly adjustable, clear controls, not too many space-taking gadgets. The doors close themselves. The freezer drawers are great, very smooth rollers, and everything is accessible. In the main fridge, the single large crisper is wide enough to store celery, rhubarb, leeks, and other large produce. It's better than larger fridges in this respect, which tend to have two smaller crisper drawers side by side.

And it's very quiet. You can hear a hum if ...Read more

Our faithful Westinghouse Silhouette 390lt circa 1989 just died quietly, he just made a slight whine and poof gone.He must have known it was the long weekend, despite a few attempts to revive him he was gone to the white goods pasture in the sky.Good bye old friend !

Straight onto the web to find his successor, had already done some research previously and thought we would stay with the brand we trusted. After a few price compare sites, looked at appliances on line but delivery wasn't till Wed (Early Sat afternoon, sorry fella's was kee...Read more

We've had top mount and side by side fridges in the past by various manufacturers, but when we remodelled our kitchen, it needed a new fridge for the space. We did quite a bit of research and also asked friends who have had both.
The Westinghouse was the right size internally and externally for what we needed, but the main thing we wanted was not to have to bend down to the fruit and veggies. We don't access the freezer as much so it makes sense to have it below.
The fridge section is very well set up with the clear glass shelves making visi...Read more

Purchased this fridge just over 2 years ago. Noticed on weekend it is covered in hundreds is small rust spots. Rang Westinghouse to complain and seek replacement and they said here was nothing they could do because it was out of warranty. When I told them a $2000 fridge shouldn't look like this after 2 years they said there was nothing they could do. Eventually told me I could pay for a technician to come out and look at it at the cost of $140. Told them I shouldn't have to do this when it was a manufacturing fault. They said there was n...Read more

The crisper in my 10 day old bottom mount fridge is freezing (starting day 3). I have had 2 techs out to see to it and both say it is perfectly normal for this to happen, that it always happens in bottom mount fridges and just to line the crisper with paper towel (I always do) and cover vegies with a tea towel?? Vegies are spoiling and I want to know if I have to put up with this for the life of my fridge. I replaced a Westinghouse fridge that is still running perfectly as I wanted a SS bottom mount fridge, so I am very disappointed. I have ...Read more

Four hours after the delivery guys shoved it in the hole the freezer alarm goes off. Checked manual then pressed reset. Fifty minutes later freezer alarm goes off again. Ring Electrolux service "there is no one who can give you technical support call the retailer". Rang Masters they rang the Electrolux rep - unavailable. Masters told me to turn off the fridge, I did. Turned it back on and four hours later BEEP BEEP. My husband decided to delay the alarm by 12 hours by pressing reset for 10 secs. (You need to sleep sometime). Didn't wor...Read more

wbm4300wbr model was bought Mar 2013. Completely dead by Dec 2013. Took one week to get a repairer out. Initially it was just the fridge that stopped chilling, but two days afterwards the freezer died as well. Under warranty, they replaced a motor-type fan part behind the freezer. Repair man said this happens all the time with upside down fridges (that was 9mths after purchase)

It's never chilled right since and the frost free freezer is always covered in chunks of ice.

Now another 10 mths after that the fridge has gone 24 hours as room ...Read more

Westinghouse / Electrolux Fridge ($1000) didn't last even 4 years..... they sent the technician for $135 to come & confirm the fridge is dead. Though they were prepared to fix it and charge me $35.00 for every 15 mins labour, but they never confirmed how long it takes to fix the fridge : 15 mins, 3 hours or the whole day. They also offered as a "GOOD WILL GESTURE" a new (the same) fridge for the reduced amount of $861 (plus delivery) - original price $1629.00. "What a bargain!" I can buy the same appliance myself by going online even cheaper. I...Read more

We purchased the WBE4300SB, which has the LCD display/controls inside the fridge. The LCD display stopped working within the first week of delivery; the buttons were not responsive. We had a repair man come out to try and fix it. After trying to fix it, he informed us it would need to be replaced and that we would receive a phone call early the next week to arrange delivery. Over the past 2 weeks, Ive placed 3 follow up phone calls and we are still waiting for the manager to call us. Last night the LCD display blacked out along with the in...Read more

I purchased the WBE4300 with the left hand opening because it fit with my kitchen better. It's much easier to reach the crisper when it's at mid-height and the drawers in the freezer are fantastic and easy to use as they are on telescopic rollers. In my opinion the crisper, when full (which is all the time), is really hard to close without telescopic rollers and feel should be included in this model. I have bad wrists from decades of typing and it really is a problem for me and a constant fight. I have ordered a spare crisper lid with rolle...Read more

After having a Westinghouse bottom mount fridge for 22 years without one problem, i thought why not buy the same style and brand. We bought a WBM5100WBR fridge. Within the first two months the sides of the fridge would get so hot you could hardly touch them and inside the fridge everything was very damp -so much so that we have things like onions and carrots going mouldy.

I have never experienced a carrot going mouldy ever in my life. We believe we have a problem with this fridge, however Electrolux who make Westinghouse do not believ...Read more
