Please Don’t buy whirlpool refrigerator as they are not actually convertible.
Go with Samsung best convertible in market and
Build quality is best in LG and godrej tikau.

One thing I regret not considering before buying a fridge is noise while running. While LGs old compressors didn’t make so much noise, their new inverter linear compressors make a loud humming sound while running. Better to learn from my mistake and go for some other brand.

I dared and bought Hisense for 46k after a lot of research and by the time all the cashbacks and Diwali offers gone, all the side by side fridges are made in china from the brands like Panasonic, LG, Haier etc except Samsung made in India, I went with Hisense its a relatively huge brand like Samsung and LG also present in market from 50 yrs, so far so godd its been 3 months, bought 5 yrs waranty from ResQ for additional peace of mind, hoping for a long life of 10yrs lets see, previously we had Godrej which lasted 20 years, compressor got damaged two times once at 15 yrs and again at 20 yrs!
