Frigidaire Top Freezer Freestanding Refrigerator FFTR1817L Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The overall design is alright for a budget frig.
Power consumption is ok
But it's way too loud.
The internal air distribution fan can be heard from several rooms away.
It's louder than my microwave oven by far and is clearly audible from anywhere on the first floor of the house. And this is a new frig that I've only had for 2 weeks. My old frig was 30 years old and very quiet (like most new ones).
It runs more than expected with a total "on" time of 27% which is more than the better models, but it has a small compressor so it only draws about 140 watts of power (at 1.1 amps) so the overall power consumption is fine. At .09 cents/Kw-hr (Wis) it costs me $2.25 per month to run.
So that part is fine.
The main issue with this fridge is the noise. It's hitting 55dB at 10 feet away and over 65dB at 3 feet distance which is not a big problem but I certainly wouldn't buy this one again. The compressor itself is quiet, just the fan is loud.
