G'day all
I have for a sale a Westinghouse Freestyle 520L Cyclic Defrost fridge (Model RE521). I've had this fridge since new, around 10 years and the only reason I'm selling it is because we're building a new house next year and the wife "made" me buy a SS side by side. I'm only allowed to keep 2 of our remaining 3 spare fridges so this one has to go.
A few things you should know about it...
The good...
Fridge 383L Freezer 141L
The interior and exterior are in extremely good condition, no scratches, all shelves and accessories intact, manual included
Runs well, cycles on and off like it is supposed to despite...
The not so good
In the interest of making sure you know what you are getting there is something that needs to be made very clear here. Where the copper lines join the evaporation plate on the inside, ice will form. I don't know why but it has done it for many years now. It has no effect on the temperature inside the fridge or freezer and to combat it I switch it of every six months and manually defrost it. Simple.
I have actually contacted a few local fridgies to find out if it's a potentially terminal problem (I doubt it though given the fact it has worked for so long) but I am unwilling to pay them the $100 or so they are asking to "have a look at it". They seem to be a very reluctant bunch to even discuss the possible causes over the phone unless money changes hands.
As I said, this fridge has been our main fridge for years and it hasn't given us any problems whatsoever.
Price is $200 and located in western suburbs.
Also available is a Whirlpool 140L Tucker Box chest freezer with wire basket (Model WHF140C5). Works well and is in pretty good condition. It has a small split in the seal (left rear corner in pic) but the lid still seals well and the wire basket has some very small rust spots.
Price is $50
Finally, even though it isn't brewing related I'm on a bit of a roll now that I've worked out resizing and posting pics
Samsung 6kg top loading washing machine (Model SW60ASP)
We've upgraded to a front loading machine (our builder said we have to coz he only builds laundries to suit front loaders) This machine is 6 years old from memory and is in perfect working order. There is a crack in the lid which I've fixed with contact glue - so it's a cosmetic thing only. Apart from that it's in very good condition. All hoses, manual and feet adjusters are included.
Price is $100
PM or post if you have any questions.
Cheers!
