Good no frills compact fridge
This review is for the white 280 liter WTB2800WG model. I bought this since it was the biggest that could fit into the small space in my kitchen - the others were 230l or so.
Advantages:
- door shelves are adjustable and removable for easy cleaning
- quiet
- decent energy star rating (3.5)
Disadvantages:
- egg holder holds 8 eggs (weird number...)
- more expensive than average for its capacity
- fridge door conversion kit costs ~$40 extra, while some brands you can do it without extra parts you have to buy

Great Compact Fridge
This fridge is terrific for a one-person household, perhaps even 2-person. For me the size was perfect and it was great to be offered a range of 5 sizes from 230 to 370 litres. I chose the middle 280 litre as being the most suitable for my circumstances. Everything works fine and the temperature of the compartments are consistent. Pleasant external appearance. Toughened glass shelves help stop anything from spilling on to items lower down; much better than a grill in my opinion. The doors open smoothly with a small amount of initial resistance....Read more
Before the resistance the door will close if let go, after passing the point of resistance it will remain open until pushed back closed. I like this as it means the door will not remain open by an inch, but will not close on you when widely open. A fairly good 3.5 star energy rating with 296 Kw h energy use per year. Westinghouse used to be a great Australian product, however, now I believe it is part of the Electrolux conglomerate. I take a point off for not being as environmentally and socially ethical as some other manufacturers. Amendment 5 Feb 2022: I wish to add that it is a somewhat noisy fridge. A friend recently purchased a Westinghouse and commented on this too. It is not something I have noticed but upon reflection I have had fridges in the past that have attracted comments about the noise and they were all of the Westinghouse / Kelvinator brands.

Going strong almost 2 years later
I had to buy this fridge after my Samsung burned out, which I wasn't very happy about! Luckily the Westinghouse has had no problems. Great for a 1-2 person household. It's also easy to keep clean. The only downside I'll note is the lack of vertical space for things like bottles; however the flexible drawer configuration comes in handy as space can be made in the door for them.

First one was Dead-On-Arrival
We needed a second fridge for the garage (wife was sick of seeing my fishing bait in the kitchen fridge). Decided to go with the Westinghouse. Had Westinghouse fridges previously without any issues. Ordered the fridge through an on-line retailer and was delivered a few days later. Sadly checked the contents a few days later, items in the freezer were thawing and fridge was only down to 8 degrees C. Rang the service line, got asked all the obvious questions, had the GE technician out 2 days later. Verdict - DOA. He organised a replacement which arrived a 4 days later, and fingers crossed... this one is fine so far. Nice and quiet, good freezer space, even better once I ditched the ice cube trays, should do the job nicely.

Good Beer Fridge
I bought this fridge between Christmas and new years and has done well so far.
I use it as an outside beer fridge so have it set to almost its coldest setting and keeps the beer nice and cold, and the dog food too.
No issues with noise because it's outside.
The only issue I have is that it take quite a while to get warm drinks to a drinkable temperature, but I guess thats what happens in all fridges.
Excellent value for money.
