Mitsubishi Electric 650L French Door MR-L650E Series

7 months now and over all its been good. Preferer the larger 710 but was too tall for our kitchen – Had this fridge for 7 months now and over all its been good. Preferer the larger 710 but was too tall for our kitchen. temperature control is small issue, set to max to get it down to 3 - 4 deg, only a calibration problem but still should have been set at factory. limited adjustment of glass shelving means removal of shelf only option for larger… Read more

items, doors shelving ok (not an issuse on the taller 710 model). was quiet when new, now a bit more noisier but still not a problem. Comparing to my old 27 year old westinghouse, unfortuantly westinghouse have made some poor quality fridges recently and reliabilty is my main focus, hence i am trying the mitsubishi with its 5/10 year warranty. Be aware the freezer is small. Freezeer gross vol 230l but storage vol 121l, not good for bulk buying. Does keep fruit and vegies fresh long time. glass front easy to clean. great lighting and deep draws with good runners and a power saving. I am very fussy but overall still happy with fridge compared to what was available with our size constraints

Can't beat it for quiet running – Purchased this fridge 2 1/2 months ago as our then fridge/freezer was becoming extremely noisy when starting up. So far, very impressed by how quiet this fridge is. Can barely hear it running and because it is an inverter fridge, there are no loud start-up noises apart from the very occasional refrigerant 'gurgle". It has ample space in the fridge… Read more

(my previous side-by-side fridge had very narrow shelves) and the humidity control on the crisper seems to work very well, once you have worked out how to set it. Plenty of strip lighting within the fridge as well so items are easy to see. There is supposedly specialty lighting in the crisper to preserve fresh produce for longer, but can't really say if actually works or just a gimmick. The fridge/freezer temperature controls are integrated into the door panel, so very unobtrusive and also very easy to use. The handles are also integrated into the doors, so no messy finger marks all over the doors - provided of course you use the handles! Because the unit has a glass front, you can even write your shopping list or notes on it! It took almost 24 hours to get the freezer to the right temperature but since then it has maintained a consistent temperature in both the fridge and freezer (used a thermometer to check for about a week). When the unit was delivered one of the seals was warped and didn't fit properly on the freezer door. The Mitsubishi rep was there within a day to deliver a new seal, so excellent service from the local dealer as well. My only minor grumble, like all modern fridges, there is lots of plastic. This unit is also extremely economical to run and we have noticed a reduction in our power usage (have an app to check daily usage). The 5 year warranty on the entire unit (not just the motor) is also a good selling point. Overall, a great fridge.

Surprisingly very spacious! Don't know why they call it "Mini" – We're so happy we bought this fridge/freezer. After doing much research into getting the biggest fridge that would fit into the recess of our new home, that also had a good energy rating, we went for this beauty. Most were too tall for the recess we have. The 5 year warranty was also one of the deciding factors. The sales rep did go into a lot of… Read more

detail about how good all of the working parts and components are. I was very impressed at the time (but don't ask me to repeat it, too hard to remember all that stuff). He was actually talking about all Mitsubishi Electric fridges. We hadn't actually seen this in person. I had done a lot of research regarding all of the well known brands and a lot on this brand. So, with only having seen pictures of it, we took a chance and it paid off. This is a smart looking fridge. The glass looks amazing and is easy to clean, no finger marks to constantly try to get rid of. I love the stylish finger grips at the bottom of the fridge doors and top of the freezer doors to open them, clean lines, no handles. The LED lighting inside looks gorgeous too. I am surprised at how much I can fit into it as well. We only have 3 of us in the house, but I do like to cook for 4-6 because I love "left over" nights and I also freeze meals. The deep compartments inside the doors are spacious too. On the right side, I can fit 3 two litre milk bottles and a 1 litre almond milk on the one shelf! I've never liked the milk in the door before (since I read once that it is the warmest place in the fridge), but it's really cold in this fridge. Very happy with it there. The vegetable drawer is really big, with the humidity regulator and the special light at the back of it, the veggies have stayed more fresh for longer compared to our previous fridge. The other drawers are also handy for fruit and small goods such as cheese and cold meats. One downfall with the fridge is that if you have anything tall to put in it, such as a tall cake, the shelves won't accommodate it. But, that's the only thing that I can fault, the really wide shelves are great if you have a tray of food. So I think this compensates for lack of a lot of height. Tall bottles can go in the door. It keeps an even temperature throughout the whole fridge. It's very easy to program it down to a fine detail too. There are simple selections or you can go into a more precise temperature, it's all in the easy to read manual. It runs very quietly too. We hardly hear it. I love the french door freezer compartments. The drawers hold a lot of food, also a nice surprise. You open one side or the other, or both. I like that I don't have to open the whole freezer to get one thing. We wanted a fridge that didn't need plumbing but also made ice cubes with an ice tray drawer directly under the ice trays. So easy to install and a lot less problems with this system. Once you get into the habit, you have plenty of ice at hand. So, in conclusion, we're very happy with the brand, style and functionality of this fridge freezer and would highly recommend it to family and friends.

Mitsubishi L4 French door fridge – Absolutely the best fridge I have ever owned, temperature is constant heaps of room great layout. Love love love Have owned it for 18 months. Hayley at Harvey Norman was fantastic  Show details ·  1

Great fridge so far. Very quiet, effectively cold – We bought a Mitsubishi 650L fridge from E and S. It is very spacious, amazingly quiet and has easy touch screen controls. It is also a magnificent looking appliance. It is built in Thailand, but only a couple of Mitsubishi fridges are made in Japan and they are far more expensive, so hopefully the quality control is there. So far it has been… Read more

brilliant. Update, 12 months later. My wife has an organic garden so this fridge has been ideal for storage of her produce. I taught Product Design in High Schools, and this fridge has shown strength and durability in terms of the materials used, and has not missed a beat mechanically. Initially, I was concerned about the glass doors, but they have proven to be strong and easy to clean. The temperature settings are reliable in all compartments. It also has a great appearance. I can't fault it.

Beautiful Big Fridge – We have had the 650l Mitsubishi for about a month now. It was very easy to set up and install. The interior is bright and it's easy to see everything, and I find it well laid out. Nothing feels flimsy. It is very quiet, you can hardly hear it. Show details

Fridge is freezing everything – I've had the fridge for 4 days, all fridge items are frozen. Mitsubishi informed me they will send a repairman out. Not happy. I've told the shop i'd like it replaced. Will wait and give a review on the replacement fridge.

Amazing Fridge, lots of space and QUIET – Aesthetically pleasing, lots of different sized compartments, very quiet to run and the blast chiller option on the Fridge & Freezer is really handy. What I love about this product is the freezer is on the bottom so less bending down to get to what you need in the fridge. We were limited with what we could buy due to height restrictions and found… Read more

this was the absolute perfect option for a shorter recess. Huge 650L capacity which you wouldn't think we need for a family of 3 (baby under 12 months) however my husband is a Chef so the space is appreciated.

Glad we got this fridge – It's well made and the dimensions were spot on for the space we were installing it at. I really like how quiet it is - seriously, I have sometimes checked to confirm that it is still on! Show details

100% perfect fridge – Wonderful quality, spacious and well organised. It looks amazing in crystal clear white glass, and it's so easy to move if required, I love the fact that I can pull it out to clean beneath it. It runs quietly and gets amazing comments from my guests. I totally love it. Show details

Beat Fridge – If Mitsubishi built cars like the do fridges they would be the top selling vehicle. We purchased our fridge 18 months ago and are extremely happy with the product. If you don't buy one of these fridges then good luck with what you purchase. Show details

Awesome fridge – I'm someone who researches everything almost to the extreme before buying. Was looking for the best energy efficient fridge to fit in the space I had. This one fit well (most fridges are too tall nowadays, and I have a cupboard above), except it's quite deep, but no deeper than most newer fridges. Pretty challenging to get it in the front door… Read more

because of this, but eventually got there. It's a very pretty fridge, easy to keep clean. But you can't put magnets on the front (can on the side) due to the glass doors. But, I can use it as a whiteboard instead! I initially didn't enjoy the French doors, as previously I'd had a 700lt side by side, and had been used to that. But once you rejig how you use the space inside, put all the frequent used items on the right, and the rest on left, it's pretty good. Two things I didn't like are that I cannot adjust the heights of neither the shelves nor the tubs on the inside of the doors, and that the shelf went the whole way across the fridge, meaning that if you were able to adjust shelves, the entire width of shelf would have to alter, not just half. The other thing is that if you open the left door only, after a while it doesn't seal properly, and the fridge runs excessively. This is due to the way the doors close and seal. You have to open the right side if you want to access the left side. And you have to shut the left side before the right. Initially an issue, but you get used to it. If you don't, the seals don't sit flat and then become set in the way they sit, and so no longer seal properly. Hence putting your frequent use items on the right, so only opening one door most of the time. Not a fan of the freezer drawers initially, but now think these are awesome and it's amazing how much you can fit in them. The very best thing of all? Saving 20% on my energy usage for my entire house just by changing my fridge. Absolutely astounding! I have downloaded my usage for an equivalent amount of time the same time last year compared to this year and analysed. You do also have to get used to the fact it does not work like a normal fridge. It seems to be running a lot, but this is because it uses inverter technology. It also encourages you to organise yourself better to some extent. Would I buy it again? You bet.

Best Fridge value for money – Purchased this fridge and haven't been able to fault it. We particularly wanted a fridge without a cold water or ice dispenser. this is a new release from Mitsubishi in December 2018. it has a flat glass front with recessed handles, an inverter compressor, LED lighting and very good drawers for the freezer and Vegetables. Would recommend this fridge anytime

sure fire winner, japanese quality – this is the best fridge I have ever owned. It keeps constant temperature and the controls are on the outside..never had to adjust them yet, except to see what they do. i did a lot of research, read all the Whirlpool (blog site for product reviews, like this one) site. Every review was positive and people really happy. I was going to buy an LG… Read more

but had one previously, it was very noisy. The Mitsubishi is so quiet I forget its there. I dont have any negatives, other than its big..doorways are a challenge but dont care. TOTALLY 100% in love with my fridge. And its 2 years later.

Great Fridge – Love the look, style and convenience of this fridge/freezer. One small complaint in opening and closing doors on occasion if both open at the same time, need to close one before the other so they fit properly and I often forget which comes first right or left but a minor design glitch. Easy to use and clean and keeps food at easy to control temp winter or summer. I would recommend this unit.  Show details

Great fridge – The old fridge had the death rattles. You know that terrible rattle the compressor makes when a fridge is old and runs almost constantly trying to keep cold...... So I wandered the internet until I only had a couple to choose from. Then I spent 5 hours instore comparing shelf strength, design, door weight, whether the door closes properly.... You… Read more

get the idea, I studied everything. I got down to two choices then I looked for user reviews online. A lot of people said this fridge was quiet and that sounded like heaven. Skip ahead to today and this fridge is sitting in the kitchen, virtually silent, doing a brilliant job. The lighting is fantastic. The freezer space is useful ( I don't have to lift everything out and put it back all the time....the drawers are so useful. All 'round it's the right fridge for me and I'm extremely happy. I hope you will be too.

Query vegetable crisper – Love my Mitsubishi L4 Grande except I find my vegetables when put in crisper(i.e. carrots, celery) are limp the next day. Have had humidity on high and low and still same result. Have also placed vegetables in left hand crispers, and same result. Any suggestions would bbe appreciated. Very quiet, easy to clean..  Show details

Its a good fridge except for one standout issue – We bought this fridge as we needed more width in a fridge, our current side by side just wasn't cutting it. We bought from Harvey Norman on special, all good. A few months after using, its a good fridge, quiet, economical, etc BUT the stainless steel doors dent REALLY easily, like the slightest tap with an object dents the panel! it seems to be quite thin. Apart from this, its a good fridge.  Show details

Inexpensive to run – Great fridge, very very quiet when running, ample room to place item on the shelves and doors, very economical to run. Has two ice trays with tray beneath to store ice, great for storing eggs, butter and cheeses, overall, a really good fridge and easy to keep clean and tidy.  Show details

Fantast fridge – I bought rhis fridge after reading some great reviews and i wasnt disappointed. It maintains consistent temperatures in all compartsments. It runs very quietly and is efficient on electricity. The compartment are easy to remove for cleaning out and wiping over. I would not hesitate in recommending this product to others.  Show details

Cannot fault this fridge – Purchased this fridge around 2 months ago from Harvey Norman on a good deal for close to $2000. Absolutely no complaints, appreciate how quiet the fridge is compared to our previous Westinghouse. I've never had a Mitsubishi fridge previously so appreciated the standard 5 year warranty which gives some piece of mind. Highly recommended.  Show details

Maybe not perfect, but pretty close – Firstly - does it do the job? Yes. It maintains a good temperature in both the fridge and freezer compartments, no excessive moisture, and the fruit/veggies stay fresh for a decent amount of time. It is also remarkably quiet, and (although I was initially not sure about the black bar in the centre of the stainless steel) it looks really good.… Read more

There is no built in water dispenser (a positive in my mind as they are a pain to keep clean, take up space, and frequently need expensive filters replaced. The ice maker is manual, but does the job. It's made in Thailand rather than Japan, but really well put together so I am confident it will last.

Issues - after 6 months only one. I've found that if you open the left door *slowly*, there is a chance that the flap that is used to seal the gap between the left & right hand side doors does not fold down completely. The result is when closing the left door, if the right door is already closed, the flap can hit the outside of the right hand side door and prevent it from closing. It doesn't happen all that often, but it does happen and I suspect could lead to the flap itself being damaged eventually. If the door is opened quickly, then the issue never happens.

Other than that, no issues. Some general comments - it is the 'mini' which means I would have loved to get the extra fridge shelf space the larger version has..... but the taller fridge would not have left enough space overhead for cooling (this beastie needs 10cm - a lot more than some manufacturers) so had to go the mini. Saying so, the freezer size is the same as the larger model and the fridge compartment is still big compared to most other fridges. If you can fit the fridge in your kitchen (10 cm gap overhead, 6 cm gap behind, and 3cm either side) I'd definitely consider the bigger version. Oh, when installing, the plastic feet protectors took some time to figure out how to actually fit properly. It would also be nice if the display could show the actual temperature rather than what it is set to. I know they should be the same, but still.

In short - a fantastic fridge. Highly recommended.

#Update - 2 years on, and still going strong. Nothing has broken. The weird issue with the door flap we have in general got used to. There is always the risk that one of the teenagers will slam the door and damage the flap, but it hasn't happened - yet. All in all, still very happy with the purchase.

Love this fridge – We have had this fridge for around 6 months now and even over Christmas, I still had room. We are a family of 5, who buy loads of fruit and veg. I have noticed that vegetables last so much longer in this fridge. It is super quiet too! Would highly recommend.  Show details

Perfect for the Family! – This fridge is one of the best I've had. Firstly, I love the simple design of the fridge. The fridge always keeps the food cold and always maintains a good temperature. Fruit and vegetables stay fresh even after storing them for a couple of days which is great as it saves money! Would definitely recommend it to my friends.  Show details

Amazing Product, 100% Recommendation – This refrigerator is the best one I have ever used. It has adjustable temperature and is perfect. I got the fridge about three years ago and since then life has been so much easier. I find that the fridge manages to maintain all food to a pristine standard. Im really happy with the product and have already recommended it to everyone I know.  Show details

5 Year Warranty sold me – This fridge is everything we wanted in a fridge, 4 doors, 2 for the fridge and 2 for the freezer with 5 drawers in freezer .It is a very good looking which would present well in any household kitchen. Only one draw back which is not really a biggy, they could have put in a couple more shelf height adjustments.  Show details

Perfect ! – Extremely quiet. My fruit and veg stay fresh in the compartment. Meat can be kept in compartment for days and stay fresh. Very spacious. The look is attractive too. I would strongly recommend this product. Cleaning is easy. Just a wipe would do the work. This was definistrkt a good change of brand for myself.  Show details

love it so far – We finally decided to replace our last Samsung fridge with this one. It's noticeably quieter but not silent. I like the door alarm which is useful when kids open the fridge but don't close the door properly. I found the freezer part is not as spacial because all the compartments and drawers actually limit what can be put in. Overall it's a great fridge. I would recommend it.  Show details

Great big fridge – Nice fridge with 4 doors, 2 for the top and, deep freezer is 2 separate compartments, maintains good temperature each separate compartments, does not make any noise and the insides are easy to clean, this is because the shelves inside are easily removable. The ice compartment is quite handy as well, it comes with a twisting mechanic which you can twist and drop the solid ice into the ice cube tray.  Show details

Best Fridge Ever – Very quiet love the large full length shelves so good for platters & large salad dishes an absolutely perfect entertainers fridge. LOVE the LED lighting so easy to see everything at a glance. An absolutely wonderful design I just love it & I also love the french doors in the freezer area rather than draws...would thoroughly recommend to anyone who is looking to upgrade there old fridge  Show details
