Re: Advice re American Fridge Freezer

Hi Bryan,

Thanks for advice and I must admit to never having heard of Goranje previously. To answer your query, we do have the space available and initially considered buying a Bosch tall refrigerator and when our kitchen is extended we could add a Bosch freezer with a connection strip between so the units would look as a single appliance, but from what I recall their tall freezers are 60cm wide and I can’t imagine how we would fill such a huge volume.

I also quite liked the convenience of an ice/chilled water dispanser which is how I ended up reviewing the option of an American style freezer as it would fit the bill nicely – ie compact but with plenty of features – which I guess means that there has to be a compromise somewhere.

Having now looked quickly at the Gorenje range, it looks as though they do not make one with an ice/water dispenser and I also note that their model ref ‘Gorenje NRS85728X Frost Free Side by Side Fridge Freezer’, bears an uncanny resemblance to the ‘Bosch AvantiXX KAN62V41GB American Fridge Freezer’ – at around £100 cheaper, although the specifications are different – could it be that they manufacture for Bosch?

On another topic if I wanted to extend a warranty from 2years to 5years would it be cheaper to take out a seperate 3rd party policy?

Many thanks for reviewing and advice.

Regards,
