sonjack2847 Posted May 11, 2018 Posted May 11, 2018 We have decided that we will furnish our apartments when they are ready to rent.I have seen some fridge/freezers which are made in Canada.The brand is Marke does anybody know if they are any good or should I stick to Panasonic.I have had a Panasonic for 5 years with no problems but the Marke has a bigger freezer compartment which I like.The price is not too bad either.Any input would be appreciated.

No truth in advertising here, BUT its not all lies so maybe its true. Here is the Facebook "About" page for Markes appilances and it sure looks like a Philippine brand to me. I strongly suggest that any reference to "A Canadian Brand" is just a story. That does not mean they are not good, just lying. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary D Posted May 11, 2018 Posted May 11, 2018 My problem with a foreign brand especially from a cooler climate is that the level of insulation may not be suitable for a tropical climate. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
