Refrigmatic WS-36300 Electronic Voltage & Surge Protector for Refrigerators Up to 27 cu. ft. Protect Your Refrigerator Against High and Low Voltage, Brownouts and Spikes.

This works GREAT, as we have many power glitches here in Florida so having protection on a fridge is just smart. It is super easy to use just plug it in and it will connect automatically within 3 to 5 minutes. I use surge protectors on everything as it is less expensive than replacing what ever you choose to use a surge protector on.

The area where we live is prone to numerous power outages and our old refrigerator was damaged due to the power fluctuations that cause lights to flicker on/off several times within a few seconds. Those are much worse than power outages that last minutes because it causes the appliance to try shutting down then restarting multiple times within a short amount of time. This product is helping to protect our refrigerator and basement chest freezer from those kinds of power fluctuations and has worked flawlessly several times. It's a lot cheaper than having to buy a new fridge/freezer, so it's a no-brainer to buy this item to protect those appliances. Highly recommend!

It has saved my refrigerator from several power outages; it is of very good quality.

This product appears to work correctly. Removing the power does delay the refrigerator from powering back on for 30 seconds. That should help with the situations where our power flickers on and off more than once. The high and low power cut off seems to be a pretty loose range, but if you deal with serious brown outs, I could see that being useful. I would have expected it to be tighter. I obviously can’t test the surge protection. As others have mentioned the plug is at an angle and doesn’t fit the flat style plugs very well. These are pretty common these days. It still connects fine, but the blades are exposed an 1/8 of an inch. Would recommend getting an extender like the 1’ extension cords.

SAVES OUR APPLIANCES EVERY TIME WE HAVE BROWN OUTS.

I purchased this for our new LG Instaview French Door fridge, a 27 cubic foot model. So far, it is working well but this is not a true surges protector because it apparently only protects up to 140 Joules. But on the plus side, it protects against under voltage, high voltage, and in the event of a power failure, it has a timed delay before it restores power. The unit switches off the power if the low or high voltage condition occurs. However, I was only able to test for the no power situation and can testify that the timer does work. I simply plugged a lamp into it and turned off the electricity. Approximately 3 minutes later, the lamp came back on. However, I do not think it will protect very well against a lightning strike. So, what I plan to do is plug in a standard surge protector that has a 1400 Joule rating, then plug in the Refrigmatic device, and finally, the fridge. Hopefully, this will give me surge protection against lightning strikes. This Refrigmatic would be perfect if only it had a decent Joule rating, but it does not. Other quibbles are that there is no UL rating and there is no mention of the manufacturer. Lo-Jack.com seems to be the seller and it apparently is made in China. UPDATE: It is now February 2023. This Refridgematic protector is still working as designed. As described above, I did also purchase an additional surge protector. Our home has experienced several power outages and several lightning storms. The Refidgematic has always turned off power to the LG fridge and when power was restored, it waited 3 minutes before turning the fridge back on again. The LG fridge is still “healthy.” I rest easier knowing the fridge’s sensitive electronics are protected.

We came home from a trip and discovered that the breaker on our kitchen refrigerator had tripped and shut off our refrigerator. We live in North Florida and there had been a tremendous lighting store that night. Thankfully it wasn’t off that long. I decided to order the Refrigmatic Surge Protector as a precaution until I could get my electrician scheduled. Came quickly - all you do is plug it in. It does make you refrigerator stick out a couple of inches but that wasn’t a problem for us. I ended up having my electrician change out the breaker to a non-GFI which he said was a better option and we installed a whole house surge protector so we should be in good shape.

I can only comment on the ease of connecting this device & design. It has a relatively flat shape & the side outlet make for a flush fit allowing the refrigerator to be right up to the wall. The protector has indicators that show status of the unit. Since I am not hoping for a power outage to see if is working, I just think that the unit provides an additional layer of protection. I have a whole house generator & the refrigerator went out so I think since they are very sensitive to a surge, this unit will help. Time will tell.
