Wall Fridge Not GE?

[sarahperdue]

Hi folks,
Long ago in a land far away, I saw a vintage wall fridge that was not made by GE for sale. I lost the picture and can't remember the manufacturer. Help. Pictures would be fabulous!

Hi Sarah. I do know that Westinghouse also made a wall fridge to compete with GE during this period. If I remember, it was slightly taller and deeper than the GE one.

Vintage Wall Refrigerators

Philco also built some, I have never seen one in the flesh only pictures.

Revco marketed "built in" refrigeration products that could be installed in various configurations as far as number of fresh food & freezer units mounted at various levels like counter height, but they were not the small things like the ones marketed by GE. To overcome the small capacity, GE even marketed under counter freezers with roll out baskets like in their large refrigerator freezer combinations.

1959 Revco.  I think it's from Ultramatic's vintage ad shares, not a Pic of the Day so not a violation of the no-repost rule.

The Revcos were built in units. Not wall hung per se.

I wish I could find the damn ad for it but Frigidaire in France built a wall-mount refrigerator for a limited production run.  It was in the early 1960s, IIRC.  I'll try and contact PhilR 'bout that....

I had a customer in Houston with those Revcos

I had an HVAC customer in Houston in the late 80's through mid 90's in a high end but old neighborhood with those stainless Revcos and a kitchen not unlike the Revco ad.
The house and everything in it was early 60's custom made, very strange, and a total time warp with ZERO updates..
He gave me an Ampex reel to reel deck which I still have...

The parsonage for the Episcopal Ministry at Michigan State had a Revco bilt-in (sic) refrigerator/freezer...

My ex and I installed a set of Revcos (1 refrigerator and 1 freezer) at our outside bar at our old house. We sold the house 2 years ago and they are still there.

Love the Westinghouse built in oven and cooktop.
