Hmm this may put to rest the discussion of the Kings fridge just being a rebadge Waeco. Timing is impeccable for Waeco.

No CF60 on there which is now the Kings 60l Can anyone prove it comes from the same factory and assembly line with identical parts and assembly?

Nah of course not. Obviously they use the same case but that's all we can tell.

Clunks not as stupid as we thought! Lol.
A while back Aldi had some 18v power tools for sale. I checked them out and they were identical to my Milwaukee tools. Even the specs were the same. Surely not...
My bro inlaw is a designer and he was designing the logos, branding and emblems etc for one of the Bunnings own power tools. Cant remember the name. And he was telling me they were importing from the same place as Bosch.
But its all here say i suppose.

FWIW, from trading experience to & fro. Our industry game has 'like' products sometimes even from last seasons poor 'expired' large moulds. Nothing ever goes to waist and most times a relative can start a secondary family business off an old system. Quality comes from encouraging fair dollars globally.

Looks the same. Same plastic casing etc... compressor and electrics are way different! As I explained to Clunk in another thread they are NOT the same fridge. If you ever get a chance to have a feel of the Kings 60L, I encourage you to do so... You will know why it is not the same as Waeco.

Meh I've seen one and it felt just like a Waeco. Funny too that they are using Dometic service agents then hey.

my thoughts exactly........... now obviously there are differences between the old CF range and newer CFX range, so maybe that's it
