Mitsubishi Electric Multi Drawer MR-EX Series

This Fridge is Perfection !! – We needed a larger fridge than our old 519L F&P to fit in a space 90cm wide and 740cm high. Quiet was also a top priority. I would not have contemplated buying a fridge which cost this much normally. Wow this fridge is awesome and would highly recommend it. It is so quiet you would not know it is running. It makes ice in ice drawer and you don't… Read more

need the fridge to be plumbed into the system like the F&P. Your vegetables are kept in the bottom drawer and stay crisp and very large draw they are not kept if top of fridge. The freezer draw is large and also a draw to place hot food in to snap cool it down. Everything about this fridge is great. The only issue I found with the tray to place your milk the tray on the door has 2 slots only room for 2 litre mile at back of tray if you have any small items in front of milk you have to take out as items in front. They should have designed the milk tray to drop forward to remove milk as tray is divided into 2 to put milk and other items. Good work

Fabulous Fridge! Amazing vegetable crisper! – A family of five adults - we needed a larger fridge than our old 519L F&P to fit in a space 90cm wide and 740cm high. Quiet was also a top priority. I would not have considered spending this amount on a fridge but received a fabulous recommendation from someone. It is genuinely quiet, even when working hard, so much better than our F&P which was… Read more

rated rather well for quiet. The vegetable bin is huge and without doubt, tomatoes on the top shelf stay firm and lower down, leafy greens crisp for amazing periods of time. A whole new experience for us! Previously we used 1 whole shelf plus the fruit and vegie bins for vegetables. We now even put soft drinks in the front divide of this bin. The freezer is a decent size and the vesta drawer is fabulous. Leftovers can be quickly cooled and then put back in the main fridge or freezer. I place fresh meat there when planning to cook over the next few days and find these meats thaw very quickly or are perfect for thin slicing for stirfry dishes. In the main fridge, without vegies, there is tons of room. Ours looks bare all the time! The LED light and all the clear containers are fabulous. The sliding trays allow me to reach the very back of the top level and I am only 155cm tall. The egg tray, chiller and small container are great. We haven't needed to alter any temperatures but the control panel does allow a wide choice of temperatures for each section, if you desire. There is a quick option for a quick cool after a big shop but the fridge seems to do this very well without using this option. Perhaps in hot weather this may be useful. It has 4 wheels so easy to move without damaging the floor. A big plus for me is the small space required for the opening doors and drawers - no more asking people to move their chair closer to the table so the doors can be opened. This fridge uses more than 200KW electricity annually LESS than our old fridge while providing much more sensible storage and a very aesthetically pleasing experience. I now have space to store the ironing board and a broom in the cabinet next to the fridge. It is amazing that so much storage is available with a smaller footprint(size and power use) than the F&P. Mitsubishi Electric provide a complete 5 year warranty with a further 5 years on the compressor only. This shows real confidence in the quality of their fridges. While making my decision, I hit upon a one day price reduction to $2671 including delivery and removal of the old fridge. That pushed me to buy and honestly I am so happy that I did. This is $300-400 less than the best price normally available. Fruits and vegetables, in particular, are preserved so much better in this type of fridge. Can not recommend it enough!

Impressive Refrigerator - keeps everything fresh – Best fridge we ever owned. Keeps all food very fresh, has various freezer settings and is very economical to run. Also has ice making without plumbing. - We have the Mitsubishi Electric MR-EX655W. The programmes/settings for each drawer or compartment are extremely useful and can be adjusted for the kind of food we buy and store. As there are… Read more

separate compartments or drawers for storing foods of the same type together each section's temperature can be adjusted accordingly, therefore saving energy and keeping food fresh much longer. - The Versa compartment is wonderful, as it can be used for soft freezing foods which one wants to use straight from the freezer without lengthy defrosting. In addition, the Versa compartment can be used for superfast freezing individual items, especially warm foods, and then can be switched back to be used as a soft freezing or normal freezing compartment - The separate vegetable and fruit drawer is brilliant, as it also has an internal large drawer for keeping fruit and vegies apart, or for storing the right kind of fruit and veg together. The Mitsubishi multi drawer fridge has such good settings that it is possible to buy fruit / vegetable in bulk and keep them fresh without spoiling. The light inside the vegetable compartment, and, if needed, the 'keep moist' setting, work so well, that fruit/veg do not go soggy, spoil or go mouldy. - Also, there is enough space in the vegetable drawer to keep large drink bottles upright if there is not enough space for them in the fridge part. - Having a separate vegetable drawer means that the refrigerator is free to be used for all other refrigerated items. The shelves in the fridge can be raised or pushed back to adjust for large items. - We did want to get the largest Mitsubishi multi-drawer fridge, but could not fit it into our space, However, the 655 is more than adequate for our 4 person household. - Another great feature is the ice cube maker, which does not require plumbing or much extra electricity. It is ingenious and makes a very large amount of ice. And when not in use for ice making the compartment can double up as a small extra freezer. - The doors are well designed and all drawers open and close easily. - Splitting a fridge into different sections and having the main part at eye level, makes it so much easier to use and reduces the likelihood of ‘losing’ food at the back of low shelves. It is so much easier to have the refrigerator part on the top and to pull out the drawers below to access the food from above. Everything is nicely laid out and accessible without having to rummage through the bottom of a fridge. - The only drawback is the height of the refrigerator. I am not very all and the top level of the refrigerator is too high for me to reach. However, this does not pose a problem as I use long, clear plastic containers to store food on the top shelf which I can easily pull out to get down items from the top shelf.

Grocery swallower – For the external size, it absolutely packs more in than a standard fridge. Huge right deep door shelves pack lots of sauces and condiments in.While the left side door packs 2x 1kg yoghurt, plus a 2 litre milk bottle on the bottom section. An extra bonus we found was that you can sneak an extra 2 litre bottle of milk on the bottom of the fridge… Read more

compartment in the middle where the two doors meet. Fruit and veges last incredibly well. Ice maker gets used heaps, just keep pulling the ice forward to allow new ice to fall down at the back of the drawer, and you will nver have ice stick into one big lump which I see in some fridges. And my wife loves it too which is the most important thing :)

Very disappointing fridge – Vegetables wilt and rot within days, the water storage goes mouldy and the side shelves do not fit bottles properly Show details

Good fridge, but Mitsubishi lost it on the door alarm! – The swing door has a STOP on it just before closing, which leaves the door ajar, if left ((open a tiny alarm comes on.(Hopeless) Good fridge except for this! Mitsubishi get rid of this feature it is of no use!!!! Show details

Freezer magnets fell off – Freezer magnet has come out of its casing and now the alarm goes off every time you attempt to close freezer. Is there some sort of recommended adhesive to stick the magnet back into its casing? Show details

LOVE this fridge – This fridge looks great and is so versatile. Had to buy a smaller fridge but didn’t want to downsize. So much space and adjustable shelf is a bonus. The automatic ice maker is fantastic. LOVE this fridge. Show details

Lots of space in a small package – Good use of internal space in upper part of fridge. Can easily keep 3 x 2L milks in door compartment. Smaller freezer than most of this size, which is ideal as we don't keep much in the freezer. Excellent (and large for size of fridge) vegetable and fruit compartment that keeps things fresh for ages - good for us as we cook our own food. Good… Read more

ice maker - did not go for a fridge with water on tap, as reviews indicate this is a feature that fails frequently, but ice maker is really useful. Easy controls. Looks good. Easy to get into house on delivery. Have no regrets about purchasing the fridge.

Excellent Fridge - lots of room inside for small outside dimensions – Very well designed fridge - all of the draws and compartments work as they are supposed to. Ice Maker excellent without the need for plumbing. Special Versa section is perfect for keeping meat fresh as it soft freezes. Show details

I love this fridge – Everything is perfect. This size is so small. I am living in an apartment and the space is not big enough, but I need a large size fridge. This fridge fits everything that I need. Show details

Loving my New Fridge – Love my new fridge, it is so quite... really enjoy my icemaker (without having to do pipe conections) only thing I struggled with (only because we are 4 adults is the bottle space on the doors.. apart from that LOVE LOVE LOVE IT. And with the same comment about the colour in the store.. it definitely wasn't an issue once in my house Show details

i own a 508l one – love it! – 1st. I love ice – and the ice tray is fantastic – just twist it, and it falls out into a large ice container. there's 3 ice trays, so you can freeze 36 ice cubes at a time. 2. the shelving in the door allows for 2L coke bottles to stand upright on both shelves – I like having my drinks upright and not lying horizontal. Most other fridges have one… Read more

usable shelf and one useless shelf in the doors.

3. The shelves also fold in half – so that adds extra versatility. Ours are actually permanently folded, as we need the extra height for stuff.

The only thing I WISH it had, was separate fruit/vegetable areas...instead of having them both in one section;

But otherwise, I love the design, and the 5yr Parts and labour warranty was a bonus too. Can't remember what I paid for it – but it was the only fridge that made my criteria – had to have an ice box (this holds HEAPS of ice!!!) AND had to be able to hold 2L coke bottles upright on both shelves in the door. Random criteria, I know – but it frees up so much space for other stuff in the main compartment. So, you might pay a bit more than a LG, Samsung, Westinghouse, Fisher & Paykel etc etc...but it's just so much more usable!

PLATINUM LIGHT – I will write a further review after I've used the fridge for a while but so far its been wonderful - so many features and so quiet. However like a previous reviewer I would like to comment on the colour. DON'T STRESS OVER THE COLOUR. I stewed over this fridge for so long regarding the colour - the fridge looked quite bronze in the shop and I was… Read more

really worried it would stand out from my other stainless steel appliances. I wanted the fridge because it has fabulous reviews, it fitted into my restrictive fridge cavity and had the largest capacity compared to comparable sized fridges. Just the colour!! So glad I purchased it - it looks as stainless steel as my other appliances, doesn't stand out at all. Even the brownish panel looks absolutely fine, hardly noticeable. It looks fabulous - can't believe I was concerned about this.

Great fridge – Reliable, consistent fridge. Surprised it fits so much in it being draws. Icemaker is fantastic. Verdi draw very convenient. Controls are easy to use. Maintains consistent temperature. Handy just opening one side of fridge to grab milk out. Compartments in the fridge are really well thought out. Highly recommend this fridge.  Show details

Rapt in colour, and set up – Have just taken possession of one of these refrigerators, and am looking forward to learning to use it to it's full potential. Early days yet, but I wanted to to comment on advertising, and lighting in retails outlets. I almost didn't buy it as I thought it was going to have a pink tinge to it - and would therefore not fit in with other… Read more

stainless steel products in our kitchen. It is not pink at all and blends in in extremely well. More a stainless steel look with grey borders. When we first saw it in a retail shop, it was very pink and the salesperson told me it was not for me, if I wanted it to be stainless steel looking.

Fabulous appliance – This was the only fridge which would provide a useful increase in volume over the previous one whilst fitting into our existing 80 cm-wide,175 cm-high space. The ice-maker using an internal water reservoir and a special ice drawer was an attraction, as was the configuration of the various compartments, with doors to the refrigerator compartment… Read more

and drawers for other compartments. It looks great too.

The ice blocks are smaller than those produced in conventional plastic trays, but that just means that you use more of them. We have found that the vegetable compartment is a bit colder than is ideal - the temperature is close to zero with the temperature setting on "L" - which counterintuitively is the warmest setting. I've been moving a max-min thermometer around inside the fridge for nearly a year monitoring the various zones and have found the other zones to be more satisfactorily regulated, though the temperature range fluctuation is not as well controlled as in the previous fridge.

The smaller ice drawer and Versa drawer seemed a little flimsy at first as a result of the design of the runners, but they work. Vegetables dehydrate faster than they did in the previous fridge, even with the moisture control set as recommended, but we simply keep carrots etc. in the thin plastic bags we buy them in.

My criticisms are minor - this is the best fridge I've ever owned.

Best fridge I've ever owned!! – Bought this fridge 2 and half years ago after we moved into our new house and I couldn't be happier!! I am someone who loves storage and for things to have their own spot. All the compartments in this fridge makes it so easy to organize my food. The last drawer is a big veggie drawer and it's soo practical to have that much space for your veggies.… Read more

I haven't seen any other fridge like that.

We love our fridge and it looks pretty stylish too!! Expensive, but money well spent in my opinion.

Really happy-Worth every cent – Simple, logical fridge. Seperate compartments are the key. All compartments do as directed. Easy to load Easy accessibility Unnervingly silent Simple unplumbed ice maker works well. The big 655L is a great size for us, (we enjoy entertaining). We do have a seperate wine fridge. Purchased 18 months ago and no problems. The problematic area… Read more

is that our 2L milk containers are a tight fit.

Layout is fully functional. Split trays in freezer and veggie crisper work well.

Love the additional freezer/fridge compartment,

Which I use for homemade pasta or frozen homemade meals..

My only disappointment is the E&S Trading rep’s has no idea how the fridge worked and could give us little advice. I expected more from them.

Love this giant fridge that fits into a medium space! – Absolutely love our new fridge! Capacity is phenomenal and all the different compartments make like so much easier! The separate veggie bin is an absolute wonder! Once you have one, you’ll never expect any less. The ice maker is also fantastic and no need for additional plumbing! Even if you don’t need a new fridge, go out and buy one of these!  Show details

Perfect for braking foods into different sections but should have bought next size up – Our Mitsubishi MR is perfect for storing things in different compartments making it easy to open only to part of the fridge or freezer you need things from rather than opening the entire door! Would have given it full stars but one star deducted because we should have bought the next size up as sometes after a single shop we fill it up to the max and wish we had a little more room  Show details

Japanese Quality Fridge – I don't know where to start, this fridge is just a dream. For one it's not noisy at all, you can even hear a pin drop standing next to it. Secondly, the way the compartments have been designed, is perfect for organising foods. The ultra-cool touch display allows for easy and quick changes to temperature. The Versa drawer is a smart touch, which… Read more

can be a freezer or fridge depending on what is needed. I love the ice drawer, such a great feature for those who don't want to spend thousands installing pipes. Not to mention, the stylish design. This fridge is perfect in every way.

Expensive, yes. Worth it...definitely – With a fridge cavity limited to 900mm we thought we wouldn't find a fridge that would fit but had the capacity we needed. The mitsubishi is tall and deep but surprising thin in width. The nom plumbed ice maker is amaxing and the draws have heaps of space. We upgraded from an LG side by side 581l frisge and have ended up with nearly 150l more… Read more

space, and because the Mitsubishi is a true 3.5 star energy fridge, our annual energy consumption has reduced by nearly 200 Kw per year. The 5 year warranty is unbeatable. Expensive, yes. Worth it...definitely.

Best fridge ever – We moved into an apartment and wanted a fridge that had the most storage and it also had to look good and this fit the bill. The ice maker is amazing as is the Soft Freeze drawer. Heaps of space in the drawers. Already planning on buying another for our new apartment in WA.  Show details

Very good small fridge – We bought this size because we did not need a big one when we live in very close to the shops. I liked the ice maker does not need plumbing connection, too. I like the small section for light freeze, I am using it to store meat & I can slice the meat very thin after lightly freeze it. I love the large vegetable section which I can store some large drink bottle as well.  Show details

The Glorious Centrepiece of the Kitchen – Buying a fridge is so very boring. All fridges are basically the same...right? Wrong! Upon seeing this refrigerator, it just stood apart from the rest with its stylish finish and multiple French drawers. Jump inside and these multiple compartments allow you to change the temperature of each area individually. Stylish glass shelves and an… Read more

adjustable height shelf make this unit a joy to use. Ample space for bottles and jars and even a fold back shelf!

The automatic ice drawer is a stroke of genius. I didn't want to connect to plumbing so simply filling the container in the main part of the fridge, ensures an automatically topped up drawer full of ice.

The cooling drawer is superb for cooling freshly cooked meals or alternatively use it to soft freeze ice-cream or other produce or just turn it onto deep freeze to max out your freezing space.

The bottom drawer expands the upper fridge compartment greatly and I'm often popping more than just vegetables in that area.

Come home with heaps of shopping? Easy, tell the fridge to rapidly cool any or all draws that you have placed your items in.

Check the manual and they are very straight forward about the colder areas inside the main compartment. Thus, there are no surprises when placing foods into that area. You can choose to place your food near or away from these cold spots (which are near the cooling air vents on the back wall of the main compartment).

It’s such a joy to use and I can't help polishing it so that it remains the glorious centrepiece in the kitchen.

5/5 I couldn't ask for a better purchase.

Exceeded expectations in most areas – The excellent performance and longevity of our prior Mitsubishi fridge made that brand our first choice for a new fridge. the position of the fridge in the kitchen made a double door model the most obvious choice, but the height of the space limited the size of the model. The fridge scores highly in its ability to keep food fresh, especially fruit… Read more

and vegetables; its quietness and the ice compartment. The ability to quickly chill/freeze compartments is also useful. Whereas the capacity of the fridge was the same as the prior model, its compartmentalisation and the icemaker means the actual usable space seems less and therefore more of challenge to fit things in. However, the positives definitely outweigh the negatives. Hence if choosing such a fridge my experience suggests that if your current fridge is a conventional one, you will probably need one of larger capacity,

Perfect in every respect – Now nearly 2 years old and hasn't missed a beat. The best thing about it for me is the little Versa drawer (not sure what it is for) but its the perfect drawer to put a few bottles of white wine in and chills them very quickly. I also like the warning beeps if a drawer or door is not fully closed.  Show details

Just wonderful – It platinum, it looks good and it has draws just great 2 years in and still going brilliantly . Love the ice maker, love the freezer two way draws. I love and my friend and family love it too. I had a certain area to fit , My fridge and this was one of the only ones available, so lucky with it.  Show details

Aaaaammmmmaaaazzzziiiinnnnnnggggg!!!! – would definitely buy again if I had my time over... lots of compartments, adjustable shelf height, ice maker and also compartments that have multiple possibilities or the ability to turn compartments off. The fridge is highly configurable and there is not much more I would ask of it... If I had more space I would of got the larger model, but 3 years in and it is safe to say I would definite buy another Mitsubishi Fridge  Show details

Best Fridge, worth the price – I find this fridge to be great. I love all the options you have with different temperatures in various compartments. I also am a huge fan of the ice maker and compartment. The soft freeze drawer has been helpful on many occasions. The interior is spacious and we haven't run out of room yet. It does take a little while to get used to the produce being on the bottom. .  Show details
