There is a Minus40 150lt fridge/freezer for sale at my work for R9000, just want to find out more about the minus40 is it a reliable brand? I have not heard much about it they are made locally.
And is this a good price as it would be nice for my hunting and fishing. But was thinking of getting an Engle but like the size of this one can put a whole filet of fish in.

Re: minus40 advice....
Minus40 have been producing fridges for a very long time, think since the mid 70's. Not bad but R9k for a 150l is quite steep, me thinks?
You could also look at x2 90L and could possibly be a bit more flexable

Re: minus40 advice....
All i can say is, i have a minus40, and they are very good an reliable, New Price for a 40L is about R11K.
Recently had it tested and is as effective as a brand new unit, and mine is 12years old
So R9K for a 150L is really not bad

Re: minus40 advice....
My brother have a 110l(i think) for a couple of years and he is happy.
Just remember it is a massive unit.That 150 l will almost fill up your load bay
