Frigidaire FFHT1817LS

Just because you may not be familiar with a brand doesn't mean it's not any less worthy of your attention than a more established name. Haier is a fairly recent addition to the American appliance market, but some of its products are as good as the more recognizable models. The Haier RRTW18VABW, for instance, is an excellent entry-level fridge that can more than hold its own with the major competition. Like all entry-level fridges, it has its flaws - a somewhat cheap interior design and inconsistent freezer temperatures were the biggest issues we came across - but with online sale prices hitting the $370 mark, it's a pretty fantastic bargain for consumers on a budget. Give this Haier a try, and see if this younger brand is a good fit for your kitchen.

This Frigidaire is a solid purchase for an entry-level fridge. Excellent energy ratings, decent space, and solid temperature performance in the refrigerator section mean you're going to get at least what you pay for with the MSRP price tag of $849, if not more. Be warned, though: questionable freezer performance may mean you want to avoid shopping for meat in wholesale store-sized quantities.

Kenmore has come out with some really excellent fridges for consumers with a modest budget, and this model is no exception.

Eco Friendly

The FFHT1817LS will more or less do everything you expect it to, but not much else.

With all the options available to consumers today in the refrigerator market, even shoppers on a budget can find a model that suits there needs and offers them consumer satisfaction. That level of competition makes the {{product.name}}'s performance that much more surprising: lacking an Energy Star efficiency rating, a freezer with solid temperature consistency, and interior shelf spill protection, even budget shoppers may want to avoid this one.
