I bought a 36" wide Subzero 550 in 2005, it was new, but actually built in 2000. After both the freezer and fridge compressors failed last year, Subzero paid for both compressors and most of the labor to repair and replace them. Everyone has different opinions about everything, but I think Subzero is an incredible company, especially after it paid to fix a 20 year old unit. Plus I built a ‘stainless steel’ restaurant style kitchen in my home, and the Subzero with stainless panels installed looks stunning, no other unit comes close to match the beauty or reliability and customer service of a Subzero.
I just got a subzero 640 and im amazed at how good this refrigerator is! how or who can I contact to make sure it is running at peak performance? Can someone help?
Would it stop a desert eagle?
Can i have it in canada ?
If its so good, it should give a guarantee for 15 years.
We’ve had two Sub-Zeros, one side by side and one with freezer drawers. Getting ready to build and putting in a 72”. We love Sub-Zero and they are totally worth the money!
We spent nearly $35,000 on Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances (not from this authorized dealership tho). First, the built-in coffee maker never got to a hot temperature. Called customer service numerous times within the first month of being installed and they sent out someone to work on it but they never could get it any hotter so we don’t use it since it makes luke warm coffee. Sub-zero/Wolf gave us an extended warrenty on our refrigerator because of the issue for the coffee maker??? Second, built in double oven has never been at the precise temp so we have always had to guess and bake longer and one of the lights burned out within the first 5 months of use. Third, the gas cooktop knobs do not stay in position. They will slightly turn/float so you can’t get at a precise temperature. For example, if you want it on med heat and place the knobs to the middle it will eventually float to simmer. This happens to two of the knobs and started since first purchased. And last, refrigerator alarm kept sounding so I called customer service and the rep was rude and augmentative. That was the last straw and therefor this review. If you think these are top of the line appliances without issues you will be disappointed. I would skip buying because they are overpriced and definently not worth it!!
We had a built-in Sub-zero and the equivalent GE Monogram model. The GE is just as good for half the price.
Very helpful thank you. Subzero all the way!!🌈
My mom has subzero fridge since i wasnt born yet in 1998, still works till now
Worth every penny.
We would not own anything else. And yes, foods really stay fresher longer….no doubt about it.
My model 561 was installed in 1988, and is still ridiculously awesome.
Good thing Sub Zeros are not designed for the average family because the average family doesn’t cook real food or bother with leftovers.
Can you say something about Gaggenau vs sub zero?
it’s worth it! keeps your food fresh for so long. no food is wasted. I told my friends, "you haven’t had a fridge until you have a sub zero"
They are not worth it. We had all sort of problems with it. And it has been going on with many people we know. Also the cost to fix it is extremely high.
definitely worth the money. I just purchased a high end home with a built in unit. It cools consistently with it’s vacuum system and insulation. This unit has the quality of those made 40 years ago. Prior to now the average refridgerator lasts 5-7 years if lucky. In this case buy cheap get cheap.
Wow! A slightly colder fridge!
This is the type of pitch my wife would buy in to.
What a load of B.S. First of all, it’s not an "investment". An investment grows in value; an old subzero fridge doesn’t. Secondly, my subzero fridge is absolutely NOT better at preserving food, compared to my other fridge, a cheap Whirlpool. As to resale value, an old subzero fridge is time bomb. The buyer can be assured of one thing: ridiculously expensive repair bills.
We have a sub zero. 29 years old. We keep up with the maintenance of cleaning every year. Yes they are worth it!
Honestly…Between this Sub Zero and Gaggenau who makes the best fridges…??? I had my eyes on Gaggenau for a while and thought it the best,to be honest,I had never heard of Sub-Zero before watching this video and I’m sold on it.
We bought a sub-zero from Mountain High Appliance. A brand new built in 42" Sub-zero. Only 32 days old, dispensing water by itself. It turns on by itself and continues to dispense water non-stop. Lucky, we were at home to stop it, otherwise our home will be flooded. See it by yourself. Type in the search:
Sub-zero 42 refrigerator dispensing water by itself – Home flooding hazard
designed for 20 years but only 2 years guaranty? …
How does it compare to a Viking built in?
So I’ve been seeing a lot of high end refrigerators with a wine cellar installed next to it. My question is, aren’t vibrations bad for wine, wouldn’t the refrigerator next to the cellar be bad for the wine due to the vibrations?

I put a Sub Zero sticker on my Samsung, wow it’s so much better now.
Looking at a co-op with this amazing company!
Ill just wait for scorpion to come out with his version.
He’s right about Sub-Zero increasing the value of a home. If you see that name under a listing on Zillow, you know the kitchen was renovated using the best materials
Tell them the truth mate. SubZero is a BRAND and it’s price is 3 times higher than many other fridges. Is it worth it? You will know it within 20 years..

I would only buy Sub Zero or Wolf 😊👍🏼🎉
Try Fhiaba not even to canpare
I would not have any other refrigeration system. The same goes for Wolf cooking appliances. Miele for dishwashing. If you are going to live in the house 5, 10 or more years, these are the ones to invest in. Naturally, these are not intended for starter homes.
Had a Sub Zero built in refrigerator freezer combo for 25 years, never had 1 problem with! Sold the house 11 years ago to the new buyer So! Still working flawlessly, 36 years old! Sub Zero is the Bugatti of Refrigerators and Freezers, everything else is Junk!
