And now the Fridge Shortage...

Oh. The Fancy Name Syndrome.

Knew someone off/near the Kona area. On the big lake.
Had built a fancy home.
Wife had to have Sub Zero. 18 cubic foot. At that time. $5,500.
When a standard 18 cubic foot refrigerator was going for $400.00 at the big box stores.

Let's just cut to the chase. This was the last Sub Zero product that the family ever purchased. And that family had 3 more new homes constructed on the big lake. None of those new homes had any Sub Zero brand.

If one needs a Sub Zero for bragging rights. And the extra money. Go for it.
