Monogram vs. Kitchenaid 48' SxS Refig. vs. Sub-Zero 695
Comments (4)I cant comment as to the monogram, but we have had the KA in for 3 months and have no major complaints. Its been fairly quiet. The water on the door comes out through a filter and it tastes good enough, that I have considered getting rid of the bottled water delivery. We dont use tons of ice, but the icemaker capacity is very large compared to my last kenmore. I paid about 5500 and couldn't justify spending 7000-12000 on the sz even though the one w/the glass door looks amazing. As to the lights looking cheap, I dont know what the lights should look like, but throw a few items into the fridge and I dont think you'll notice at all. My only complaint was on the door shelves for the fridge side. The fronts come up fairly high and items dont come out as easily as I would like, but I have gotten used to it. Good luck....See MoreSub-Zero or KitchenAid Built-In Refrigerator?
Comments (35)I've had a KA for a little over three years and I've been happy with it so far. I had nothing any more upscale than a basic Whirlpool fridge prior to this - Whirlpool brands have served me well - so this was more than adequate for me. Some good friends needed several repairs on their relatively new SZ fridge and went out of their way to recommend I not get one. Obviously lots of people are delighted with SZ but since people I actually know were not, that did influence my decision. I did want a built in with cabinet panels and KA was outrageously expensive enough - no way I was going to pay thousands more than that. For that I would expect flawless performance for at least 15 years and I just don't think they make appliances that way any more. What might have been great quality 20-30 years ago I really don't think is the same these days - SZ or otherwise....See MoreSub-zero vs thermador Integrated refrigerator columns
Comments (0)Loventhelook of integrated column freezer and refrigeration. Looking for a 30" fridge and 18" freezer, deciding between thermador and sub-zero. I've heard that the thermador is as good if not better than the subzero columns. Any feedback? The pricing is certaining better, about 3k less, but the interior design in the thermador isn't great. The shelves look like the same shelves I see in $700 refrigerators, and the subs seem like their layout hold a heck of a lot more. Am I wrong? Subzero 48" built in is the cheapest of all, but the look of the columns really can't be beat....See MoreCommercial TRUE vs Miele/Sub-Zero
Comments (4)No, it isn't a terrible idea providing you are aware of a few caveats and limitations. I have an all fridge unit with the glass door in my kitchen. There will be NO warranty as it will be installed in a residential kitchen. IMHO, it's worth the risk as these units are about one-quarter the price of a SubZero. The actual refrigeration unit is fairly simple and can be serviced by anyone who works on refrigeration. They are not quiet if that's important to you. Having two units would probably be fairly noisy. True does manufacture several units that can be installed with remote compressors to mitigate the noise....See MoreTXGuy
