Mitsubishi Electric 700L Multi Drawer MR-WX700C Series Questions & Answers

I wanted the white fridge, but the store offered me a $100 discount for the silver one. I like silver too, so I chose the silver one.

My fridge has sleek silver mirror-style doors where fingerprints hardly show. It looks stylish and is easy to keep clean.

Took nearly 24 hours after fridge was plugged in , after that started making ice automatically . Yes it should tip into container .

Hi Bill I think it should work, if anything it will sit quiet flush in your fridge space. Is there any reason you were thinking you need additional 50mm ? I just measured ours again, it's around 1820 from top of the fridge to bottom. Hope this helps.

Thanks, the product specifications suggest 50 mm space.

Sorry I was not aware of the 50mm space requirement, might be worth calling Mitsubishi directly and see if they can guide you through. Good luck with your purchase.

It is at the bottom back and my power point is on the top right hand side. The cord is long enough to suit. I leave around 1cm gap at the back. May be have a read for their manual to find out more external link 

Thank you.

Plumbed in connection is a risk for leaks at the tap and i think the system is much harder to clean and repair. The 700L uses a tank that we only refill every couple of weeks. I like it as it is easy to keep clean and you can use filtered water to fill the tank. I guess it depends on how much ice you use

Thanks so much Bruce. I’ve never had a problem with plumbed water. I saw the fridge briefly in store and the removable tank seemed very small - like a litre or less, or does it have a bigger tank underneath?

Bruce, I thought I read in the supplied fridge manual the heat gets removed from the side & top panels, the air gaps are the bare minimum any air gap greater will improve on energy saving. Our WX 700 has air gaps on sides of 40mm & 50mm top, more or greater ventilation is always better for refrigeration if you have the space The longer we own this white 700C the ease of use & layout makes us feel this was a great purchase we certainly don't regret

Go to appliances on lineand seach. The have the packed size.

For what it's worth Joerg our fridge did get delivered with the packaging intact to the property but before they entered the house they removed the packaging as it was a tight fit just getting it through the only available doorway to our Kitchen, further more we had to remove the door & door jamb to enable safe transit into actual kitchen, thankfully we had a builder on site that made it all very easy with removal & rehanging of door.

Hi Joerg,

The package dimensions are:

Box Height: 1890 mm Box Width: 860 mm Box Depth: 805 mm Box Weight: 150 kg

These dimensions are subject to change.

Kind Regards, Mitsubishi Electric Australia Support

Hi Joerg, Our 700 litre WX700C can hardly be heard running, there is only the slightest sound, really I would say not noticeable unless you trying to hear it, none of our household have noticed any noticeable noise or sound . Hope that helps

Hi Ralph, Thanks for the quick response. I know that these fridges run on 15dB, that is a long distance from any competitor, and the reason I gonna buy it. My question was more focused if the bigger fridge has slightly more dB, or the same as the smaller fridge (it consumes 25% more power which points towards more noise but also has more surface to discharge heat .. but i have no idea how to really model this in term of physics). Has anybody more insight into this?

Hi Joerg, The WX700C we have does not have hardly any audible noise. The fridge is also made in Japan and has copper coils, the smaller fridge is made in Thailand and I believe does not have copper coils. Hope that helps.

how would you know the 470L is made in Thailand?

Rosi, We have the cabinets painted in NEW NATURAL WHITE, it is not identical but looks good, do keep in mind that the paint colour will look different depending on the light & whether you have chosen a gloss or semi gloss or a Matt finish what we have

I have a well lit kitchen - no lights in the fridge drawers would be a show stopper for me. I have an Electrolux French Door EHE6899 and it has lights in both of the drawers. I definitely would not buy a fridge without drawer lights.

All current specifications for the MR-WX700C are listed here:

When you defrosted it and dried it, do you mean you also removed the ice maker drawer and removed ice around the drawer tracks etc.?

Hi. I had to wait until the area defrosted in order to pull out the ice drawer as the entire mechanism was caked in thick ice. I was unable to unlock the mechanism until it had all defrosted. Once I was able to remove the ice cube tray I could see a big build up of ice behind that also. So waited for that to also melt. Then dried the entire area. I did take some photos which I have but can't upload into this convo.

This what I am experiencing now Once you defrosted all worked OK after this?

No it didn't. It continued to frost up. I think I have found the solution though! I watched a Youtube video about the fridge. It was in Japanese so I couldn't understand what they were saying but I noticed that they put a small packet under the water container (The one that fills the ice). external link  I did the same using a piece of plastic. It just lifts the front of the drawer by a few mm's but seems to have solved the problem. I think Mitsubishi need to look into this issue!.

its pathetic that Mitsubishi isnt responding effectively here and customers have to translate videos from Japanese to fix a brand new fridge. Mitsubishi, I hope you can do alot better and provide solutions on these reviews rather than ask more questions which will only infuriate customers and make you look more incompetent.

I hope you can see that your comment about your own product shows ineptness. You have no idea what these people are all talking about which is actually overall, is the same experience from multiple users. Either you are across your ice makers having an issue or you are not. It's your core business to be across your core business. Do better.

No they can't be reversed

No, none of our models have reversible doors.

You need a minimum of 0.5cm and more for the sides and 5cm space on top of the top

Info says 50mm also required behind. Does anyone know the depth of the Australian plug. If it’s greater than 50mm, it means the fridge will stick out even more from my 600mm counter depth, unless I mi e the PowerPoint to the top (above could work as the power cord appears to be longer than the height of the fridge)
