Westinghouse has been making fridges for Australian homes since 1961. It's not the flashiest brand on the shelf — no ice makers or Wi-Fi connectivity — but it's consistent, durable, and built for Australian conditions. And when you buy refurbished from Oceania Appliances in Wetherill Park, you get that reliability at a fraction of the new price.
Why Westinghouse Is Different From Other Fridge Brands
Westinghouse (now owned by Electrolux) is designed and engineered specifically for the Australian market. A few things that set it apart:
- Reverse cycle cooling — handles extreme Australian summer temperatures better than many imported brands
- AntiBacterial door seal — standard on many models, it inhibits bacteria growth in the door gasket
- EasySeal crisper drawers — high-humidity setting keeps vegetables crisp longer
- Simple, reliable design — fewer electronics means fewer failure points, and parts are widely available across Australia
- Service network — with parts stocked nationally and local technicians familiar with the brand, Westinghouse is one of the easiest fridges to service in Sydney

How Long Do Westinghouse Fridges Last?
With normal use, a well-maintained Westinghouse fridge should last 12–18 years. The simple design and locally available parts make them cost-effective to service — usually a better repair proposition than more complex imported brands.
At Oceania Appliances, we regularly see Westinghouse fridges from the early 2010s still running perfectly after a service and clean.
New vs Refurbished Westinghouse
A new Westinghouse 390L top mount retails for $899–$1,099 at Harvey Norman or The Good Guys. The same model refurbished at Oceania Appliances is typically $299–$349. The difference: minor cosmetic wear (small marks on the exterior). The function: identical.
