I am looking for a new refrigerator; can anyone please help me find deals for the best brand on the market. Where do I look?
By Vannah Riann
When I am looking for, what I call, a big ticket item, I consult Consumers Report. I will, also, google for reviews! I will be looking for a refrigerator, soon, since mine is making knocking noises when the compressor shuts off!
Best Brand depends on how much you can afford to spend. You find lemons in all sorts of brands. Ask your friends who have bought recently. Different parts of the country/world have different brands. Ask an appliance store which are their best sellers. I made the rounds to about 10 stores, price checking and quality checking when I bought a new freezer a could months ago. Even at that, it had a glitch. Name brand, big seller.
And remember certain companies make the same appliance that go under other names. Yep. May sell for half the going price. Yep. Do your research. Talk to repair people, find out what is your least problematic one.
