A fridge is the one appliance in a Bangladeshi home that never gets a day off. It keeps fish and meat safe through the week, holds the Eid meat for a month, and has to survive load shedding and voltage swings without giving up.
It is also a big purchase, so the wrong choice hurts for ten years. Too small and you are always squeezing bowls in. Too big and you pay for cold air. Buy a fridge that is not made for our voltage and the compressor may fail early.
We checked fridges that are in stock at Pickaboo, Daraz, Ryans and Star Tech this week, during the 11.11 sale, and picked seven for different family sizes and budgets. Below you will also find a simple size chart and answers to the usual questions about frost, non frost and inverter models.
