Avantco A-23R-HC 29" Solid Door Reach-In Refrigerator

Complete JUNK !! I bought in early 2020 thinking will be nice to have a new dependable stainless fridge that last many years... in Mid 2021, one year and few months after purchasing, the fridge stop cooling, had leaked out all the freon, called Webstaurant and Avantco, all they said, sorry warranty only lasted 1 year.... AWESOME, way to stand by your product and sell junk. So a refrigeration tech looked for a leak with no luck and filled with freon... last another 6 months and again leaked out freon, then added freon again for a 2nd time, and just today, the freon has leaked out for a 3rd time in past 2 years...from 3 yr old fridge... wow !! like I said at the beginning.. Complete JUNK !! I've been in bar and restaurant business for 21 years, and with multiple rental properties... this has been the worse appliance I've ever purchased.. congratulations !! If anyone is interested, i have shiny stainless box for sale that used to be a 3 yr old Avantco Refrigerator

New Buyers: this refrigerator lasted about 24-mos before the compressor gave out. You get what you pay for with Avantco.

Refrigerator is garbage, cheap parts, mine lasted a year a year and the cost to repair was high.

Do not buy refrigerators from webstraunt. This unit is leaking water right from the start of plugging it in it smells about a cup of water every two hours onto the floor. The warranty process as a dumpster fire Webstaurant tells me to contact a warranty company the warranty company won’t do anything without putting the serial number in the website and when I put the serial number in the website it says it doesn’t work. So now I have a refrigerator that nobody can do anything about spilling water on the floor I’ve spent multiple hours dealing with different customer service reps with zero remedies. Their warrantee process is broken beyond repair. . Start buying refrigeration from a local company where you can actually deal with sales reps. I did that with the last restaurant I opened it was so much better and I only paid a little bit more

This refrigerator lasted right at about 2 years. Poor decision on my part to try a low priced option. Have purchased other brands with no issues to date.

I had this refrigerator for 3 years and 2 months and it STOPPED WORKING. The coolant ran out and I had to pay to have it refilled. It ran out within a few weeks due to a leak they can't find. The warranty ran out 2 months before it BROKE!!! I Do not recommend. I should be able to get more than 3 years out a commercial fridge.

The refrigerator works for a year and half and then stopped working. Assume the 1 year warranty is because this is common. Wouldn't recommend purchasing this product if you expect it to work for long.

Do not recommend. R 290 freon is a joke. Burns up the compressor in 1 1/2 years to 2 years. I bought 9 of these and 1 by 1 the compressor is burning out. I was told by my heating and air guy that he's had nothing but calls on the R290 refrigeration units. The compressor is only warranted for 1 year so after 2 years I've had 3 of these burn out and went to the scrape yard.

Very disappointed. After 3 years of VERY light use - closed 15 months due to covid, so used less than 2 years, the evaporator went out there is also a leak in the tube cap. I’ve had two companies quote and it’s going to cost more than the unit originally cost me to fix it. At this point, I would consider that to be a “disposable” fridge. Not happy!

Ordered in October 2020...no problems until it completed died in July 2023. It needed a new compressor already. It would have cost more to fix than we originally paid.

I have had this refrigerator for only 2 years and have to pay someone to look at it because it won't stay under 50 degrees.

That's already our second Avantco Refrigerator and we have one more Freezer, as of today we have never experienced any huge issues. Definitely worth buying!

The refrigerator is working as expected, pretty sturdy. The main door is a little bit stiff and won't completely close by itself but overall a good product, so far so good.

NEED HELP! I have had this refrigerator for 2 months. Working great. My only complaint is the time we are locked out after closing the door. I need to adjust the wait time & can not find info. on it.

This refrigerator is surprisingly spaces for the amount of space it takes up. Very durable shelves. We especially enjoyed that the shelves are easily adjustable. It comes ready to operate without any need for adjustments from the factory.

Great option for the amount of business that I have. Easy to move and with lots of space for small business. The best part is that the motor is on the bottom so you dont kill your back.

I love this new cooler, so much room. The temperature control is in plain sight. And the price was great. Delivery was so smooth!

ALL Avantco items are not worth a penny, read the warrenty info.

Worked great for 24 months, very lightly used. Copper lines sprung a couple leaks and would not cool anymore. Repair was $1300!!! Total scam of selling refrigerators that will just go within the first couple of years. Repair guy said Avantco and others notorious for this!! Webstaurant should stop carrying these.

Dead on arrival. Instead of expediting a replacement, Webstaurant is making me file a warranty claim. I should have read the terrible reviews more carefully. Having been a Webstaurant customer for 10 years, I would have expected them to prioritize taking care of a customer over helping a supplier leave me holding the bag. So, don't buy this fridge, and don't buy one from Webstaurant--there are obviously better options out there on both fronts.
