Refrigerators, the Next Fad!

Whirlpool Polara</a> refrigerated range.

I've mentioned in several past threads that there's a (presumably) new Polara on the display floor on a local appliance store, been there for a long time.  Still for sale far as I know (has a price tag), unless the store owner is keeping it as a curiosity.

There is (was, apparently is discontinued) a niche-brand wall oven, TMIO, that offers a version (double or single) with refrigeration ... and they have remote Internet control.

The other thing as well.. You buy the fridge and then 2 or 3 years from now Soda Stream goes outta business

I don't even drink bubbly water out of a bottle so why dispense it from a frige?

This is something I will never be interested in.

Actually I would rather have it dispense Gerolsteiner water. It actually has a good taste---- Love that stuff but I will continue to buy it by the bottle.

Did anyone see the new LG refrigerator that has the mechanical drink chiller?

Here's a video of it.. URL Below. IMO, Great idea.

This is a little gimmicky, but still, a really neat idea.

There are people who say that using a ice water salt slurry will get cans cold fast, but this is more of a convenience thing really. No fuss, no muss.

I could just put some ice into a glass, but this is considerably more handy.

Kind of like using a built-in icemaker as opposed to just using ice trays. No water to spill.

It was LG that came out with the flatscreen in a SxS. We ordered one for our floor @Home Depot. Everyone was fascinated by it, but we only sold one of them. When it went on clearance it sat and sat and sat. Finally a kiddie daycare center bought it, to keep the little darlings entertained during lunchtime with a DVD. This was before the change-over from analog TV. How weird to see a fridge with a rabbit ears on top! The TV was also programmed with recipes, a table of equivalents, and other stuff. It also had a weather function.

I didn't see this thread earlier. I bought a Soda Stream over the weekend. I really like it. The Diet Cola is close enough to Diet Coke to work. The Diet Pink Grapefruit is really good. I have the "Energy" this morning. Taste way better than other's I've had, no jitters. So, I'm happy with it.

Seems this thread has jumped forums. Started in Deluxe and now it is in Super.

Eugene:

If you can afford to shop at Hy-Vee, $3995 for a fridge should be a breeze.

I have never seen such breathtaking grocery prices in my life! Higher than Publix in Atlanta, which would hardly seem possible.

Interesting-a fridge that can be used ass a soda fountain.Does the fridge maker provide flavorings for the "soda" it just made?

estesguy, that fridge with the TV was made by LG. We still mock its existence to this day. It was a very expensive fridge too, if I recall.
