Hisense fridges - yay or nay?

[shadow_man]

Looking at a new fridge / freezer and spotted a good BF deal but I have my hesitations on the brand?

Anyone owned one?

They should last you at least 10 years minimum without any hassles. Most of the internal components and electronics are the same that's used by the big name brands like Samsung and Smeg.

Guess it depends on how much you want to spend. My parents have a cheaper one and it's not that great, never stays consistently cold - the back of the fridge is icy while the front isn't cold enough. My Samsung fridge is however is always perfectly chilled.

Same boat. Please see my thread here – https://mybroadband.co.za/forum/threads/happy-with-your-hisense-fridge.1137941/.

Have a Hisense Fridge which the bottom is the freezer and it has been working faultless for 7 years now.

It is still ice cold.

Btw
Also have a smart TV that is 3 years and no issues.

I've had a Hisense fridge for almost 6 years. I haven't had any issues with it.

We have a 370L. Had it for about 5 years now, and it works well.
It's frost-free but someone forgot to tell our fridge as I have to regularly defrost it.
Other than that it works well.

Had mine for about eight years and four thousand beers later and no problem... Nice touch is the LED light.

Had mine for around 6 years. Doesn't get as cold as I think it should be? Friends & family's LG / Bosch's seem much colder.

My dad used to repair electronics and hisense is a no go. He says they use mixture of parts from different companies including cheap parts. So he always says stick to LG and Samsung quality is better. But just an opinion

Thanks - that's pretty much what I'm going for - so glad to hear it's holding up well.

Skipped buying this from H&H - as they want like R1699 for delivery (which is sheer and utter madness).

Got Tafelberg furnitures to price match and deliver (for R275 vs R1699).

Will give update once the unit arrives in 1-2 weeks.
