refridge bit the dust.....

While removing the heater element on my norcold refer it took a lot of pressure to break the element loose and in the process I started to smell the dreaded scent of ammonia, Well I knew what the smell meant ,,It means I can finally go to Lowes and purchase the 10-11 cu ft refer that I have been looking at ever sense my last trip out and discovered that my refer was not cooling as it should. The old Norcold had cooled its last coors or bud lite ..I have been checking the net to find the best bargain in small refers. Lowes has the best deal...now has anybody ever used the brand ((HAIER)) from Lowes..My unit is a Coachman 1993 santara ,,,sooo it lasted a long time so I wont complain ..

  • Ours is an Avanti fridge, I was shopping by size and the lovely 197 Samsung would not fit
    Anyway it's is now five years old and still working like new
  • Haier is probably built in the same plant as so many other Chinese brands. We are on our third year with an everkool that sits outside our trailer door every day we are away, including a snowy winter spent in the Columbia river gorge. Bought it online from compact appliances. Delivered within three days. I move it in and out, plug it in and load it full of stuff. Never given me one problem.
  • I had a new Haier fail after 7 months....They have bad reviews I later found out...
