| We are likely replacing our frig this week, and I'm curious if anyone knows anything about Daewoo frigs. The only counter depth frig I saw on costco.com was by Daewoo, and I have never heard of that make. Thanks |

| Chinese through and through. Used to be prison slave labor. Not sure about that anymore. And they just bought Fischer Paykel to try to legitimize themselves. I had a friend that worked at HD when they gave them a trial run. 8 out of 10 of the fridges that they sold came back. That was 7-8 years ago. It's possible they might have improved, but it would have to be a LONG way up for me to ever consider them. |

| Haier is the Chinese company that purchased Fisher(English not German spelling) & Paykel. Daewoo is a South Korean conglomerate. They make SxS fridges for Bosch in Mexico for the American market. Don't know about that particular fridge at Costco.com |

| Thanks for info. I also thought they were S Korean, but knew nothing about them appliance-wise. Seems as though they make cars. If it turns out we need to replace our frig, I doubt we will try this one. |

| Thanks for the correction. Confused my Asian countries. Sorry! |

| Daewoo no longer makes cars - they went bankrupt and General Motors bought what was left of their automotive assets; old Korean Daewoo factories now make Chevys. |
