Electrolux 609L French Door EQE6870 Series

The price at Good Guys was $1700. And for that it have …. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ – The BEST FRIDGE replacing another brand that cost $5k 15 years ago. It did well. Onto Electrolux. It does everything effortlessly, efficiently and the options! Having the left bottom section as a choice between -17 or 7 degrees makes it perfect for parties. There is a section designed for your wine or beer bottles. Up top the shelves move up or down but they also have a neat hinge you lift so bottles can fit, without moving the shelf up. Clever design, It’s the sheer choice of what you want and it’s just there. Wine holders drop down up top. The crisper is keeping everything fresh. The snack compartment is great for berries or chocolate treats. The plumbed water and ice is a must in Queensland, the grey metal doesn’t show up finger marks. And it’s so quiet. Energy efficient 3.5 ⭐️ esp when you aren’t opening four doors. Just the one. And the doors have deep shelves. Again with a variety of options depending on your food and drink. This is a great design. The price dropped from $4k. Maybe a new one soon but I don’t care. I’m a happy new fridge owner - for the next 15 years. Highly recommend you buy before the price goes up.

Happy with the fridge apart from a couple of issues – We bought a westinghouse 609 litre fridge which was delivered dented so it was exchanged for another one which also came with dents. This was then exchanged for a third one which was also dented and was returned. At that stage we gave up on westinghouse and looked for something else and chose the electrolux 609 litre in the stainless steel. It was also delivered (from a different company to the westinghouse) with a small dent in the very top of one of the doors. So that makes 4 fridges all with dents. Westinghouse and electrolux are made by the same company so maybe that says something about their quality control. All 4 fridges came in their factory packaging. The company we bought the electrolux from offered us a discount for the damage so we accepted their offer. I'm pretty happy with the electrolux. The stainelss steel finish is a nice colour and it's marketed as fingerprint resistant which it is. It runs quietly and both the freezer and fridge are maintaining the right temperature. The chilled water and icemaker work perfectly except that there is a delay in the light coming on when using the dispenser. The fridge section has plenty of room and is well lit and each door can be opened separately. The two snack sliding door sections are pretty useless and very hard to clean. The soft close doors work well. The dedicated freezer is also well lit but the slide out shelves need a higher lip at the back to stop things falling off when the shelf is slid out. The flexible variable temperature section is very practical and will be very useful when entertaining. The bluetooth setting and app we cannot get to work. The control panel for the fridge on the left hand door needs a lock function for the settings as it's easy to change the settings if the panel is accidentally knocked when getting food out of the fridge

Problem since the day it arrived – We bought this fridge from Harvey Norman Bundall QLD in July last year and it’s been useless since it arrived. Frozen fruit and vegetables in the fridge and soft ice cream in the freezer! So far the PCB and both sensors have been replaced with resulting down time of new fridge and with no improvement in temperature regulation. Electrolux then suggested another repair company who’ve said they were coming twice but didn’t both times. Last week in desperation we bought a new Mitsubishi fridge that is a dream to own and this piece of Electrolux junk has been moved to the garage. So far this fridge has cost us; $3690 + 4 days off work for me waiting for service calls $3000 + an actual new fridge $2999 = $9689 and counting because it still doesn’t work 6 months after it was delivered. Neither Harvey Norman or Electrolux will post my review.

Love it – Right choice for my family. We cook a lot and require a lot of space. The convertible option is very handy.
