Best of Three: SMEG Refrigerator Colors

2007-09-14-smegcolors.jpg

Best of Three. The bright fridge we've seen for years in Euro design magazines is finally available state-side. With a price tag of $1,999., one had better be sure that they were going to enjoy the color chosen for a long time. Which color do you think is the best bet for design longevity?

From Left:

  • Orange 9.22 cubic ft. refrigerator for $1999.
  • Pastel Blue 9.22 cubic ft. refrigerator for $1999.
  • Lime Green 9.22 cubic ft. refrigerator for $1999.

    Oh, SMEG! The Red Dwarf fan in me really wants one of these fridges, but the rest of me couldn't stand to put her food in something named after the cheesy substance found on unwashed genitals.

    Did we learn nothing from the Harvest Gold era?

    the blue would be OK, now if the orange were a true red, the lime green an actual yellow, then we may be talking but as is, hmmm, dunno, I think I'll take the blue, if I were to buy one at all.

    That will be the day when I put an appliance in my home with the name of SMEG...all it's lacking is MA.

    None of them seem guaranteed to really last style-wise, but the blue is the best. The orange and green give me horrid 70s flashbacks.
