Oct 11, 2008 - is the low freezer hard on your back to open?

AsktheBuilder Says:

Oct 11, 2008 - Not at all. High-quality rails with ball bearings.

RunLessWire Says:

Oct 11, 2008 - Great New Format and Graphics

hammerofharpel Says:

Oct 11, 2008 - Tim you do know this is just a refrigerator right?

AsktheBuilder Says:

Oct 11, 2008 - Yes.... but absolutely one of the best ones I have seen and used in a very long time...... :-) That is why I decided to do the video.

hammerofharpel Says:

Oct 11, 2008 - Fair enough and in all fairness with two little ones of my own, that refrigerator never stays full (LOL)!

Oct 11, 2008 - you have some very lucky kids

jsusasux Says:

Oct 11, 2008 - Nice design, but I think I would miss my water and ice in the door.

AsktheBuilder Says:

Oct 11, 2008 - Yes, those are great features. My wife didn't want them. :-/

CaliforniaTravelTips Says:

Oct 11, 2008 - Wow. That's a really great refrigerator with some neat features. I want one of these in my kitchen! Great video!

AsktheBuilder Says:

Oct 11, 2008 - We love it. Since there is no freezer, the produce stays really fresh for many days.

Oct 11, 2008 - Big refridgerator = bad for the enviroment. tell your son to eat fresh and you wont need such a big fridge.

AsktheBuilder Says:

Oct 11, 2008 - Thanks for your comment. When you have a large family, you need room to keep things cold. One problem with fresh is that it requires many more frequent trips to the store. The energy spent doing that might be far less than the extra energy used by the larger machine. In a year it will make no difference as I will be going off the grid using a microhydro generator.

abram730 Says:

Oct 11, 2008 - I have a different opinion on that awayalwayz. I've noticed that bigger units are often more efficent. last year I got a 15,000 BTU air conditioner to replace an older less powerful one and It uses less energy. High value products have more room for effecency and improvements that extend the life of the product.Only around 6% of the energy in gas is used to move a car. Heat pumps on the other hand are very efficient. I'd go with AsktheBuilder on the car trip point.

Oct 11, 2008 - Thanks for the vid! Cool logic for the extreme enviro guy too! You def. have to do a vid about the microhydro generator!

neptunemos Says:

Oct 11, 2008 - GREAT VID!! WISH I CAN AFFORD THAT :/

copskid Says:

Oct 11, 2008 - Subzero is my pick for best build in ref. Viking is the worst. from your Subzero servicer.

Tohellwithoursouls Says:

Oct 11, 2008 - This is the most ugly kitchen I have ever seen dark wood with a huge brush steel box jutting out, no wonder your kids are monsters they have too much food readily available in that catering size cold room of a fridge.

AsktheBuilder Says:

Oct 11, 2008 - Thanks for your cheery comment. I'd hate to see what you might write if you watched a video and were in a bad mood. The saying over here in the colonies is that if you can't say something nice, then consider keeping your mouth zipped. :->

Tohellwithoursouls Says:

Oct 11, 2008 - Wow what a great fridge imagine what the world would be like if everyone on the planet had one. Talk about Americans taking more than their fair share of the worlds resources this type of lifestyle is climate change in action. Gandhi said something like the world can support everyone's need but not everyone's greed. Cars are great modes of transport & symbols of our freedom but if everyone had one they'd be WMD. Not to mention gas guzzling SUV's. Have you considered downsizing?

AsktheBuilder Says:

Oct 11, 2008 - Thanks for your comment. I went to your channel and you are invisible. You seem to have a passion about the planet and its welfare. Instead of making comments on other videos, have you thought about making your own videos that express your feelings and thoughts? Remember a picture is worth a thousand words - a video 100,000. We anxiously await to learn who you are and more of your beliefs via videos you take the time to create yourself.
