Fridge - Samsung vs LG side-by-side
The final two that we shortlisted were:
LG GSB5282PZ |
Samsung RS-H5SUSL2/XSS |
- Made in Korea
- Dual Fan
- Larger capacity 551 vs 528 (LG)
My wife preferred the LG because of the better internal configuration and look.
LG has clear plastic trays and are height adjustable. |
Samsung's door side trays are cheaper looking white and not height adjustable. |
LG's ice tray is larger and fits the shelf nicely. |
Samsung's ice tray is smaller and doesn't fit well. |
Since we could not come to an agreement, we let the price be the final decision.
Samsung was $1,699 and LG was $1,599. Samsung was running a promotion giving away $150 supermarket voucher and that pretty much seals the deal. But that's not the end.
Shopping around the past few days brought us to Harvey Norman Millenia Walk, Courts Tampines and Harvey Norman Hougang Mall.
HN Millenia: Fridge $1,499 + 3 years add-on Warranty $374 = $1,873
Courts TP: Fridge $1,699 + Warranty $325 (approx.) = $2,024
Finally, we decided to just stop by HN in Hougang because we were too tired to drive down to Millenia. The price on the Samsung was $1,699. We were served by Uncle Wong and he not only matched the price of the fridge to their Millenia outlet, he also lowered the price of warranty (items below $1,500 had a different warranty pricing level).
HN Hougang: Fridge $1,499 + Warranty $243 = $1,742.
Deal done and that was our last major item for the kitchen.
