Good Morning, it has been my experience that Plaza Lama sells rebuilt products that look new and does not back any warranty.
the brand you know about will be expensive. they are, however, available: LG, whirlpool, samsung and so on.
mabe is very decent, i think. candy is also worth looking at, albeit expensive (stoves). there is a brand called sanky too, i kid you not. fairly solid too.
check plaza lama. always pay cash, because they will give you a discount. bring a pickup or a truck or a jeep to take the stuff yourself if you want super fast delivery
Nedoca and Mabe are both manufactured here in the DR. Mine were new when bought.
"BOB", makes "POINTS"????????????
CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC
At least I can still see my points. LOL.
Nedoca (Neveras Dominicanas, C x A) earned its stripes in the DR 40 and 50 years ago. Started as an import substitution company, they imported some parts and manufactured and assembled other parts here. The things worked!! For years they were the standard that others were judged by. I had one, other family members had one and they all worked.
Mabe is a brand that makes stoves and fridges. They seem to do well but not like Nedoca. I have a Mabe stove, and I have replaced most of the top. but it keeps on working and the oven is pretty accurate.
I brought in my fridge from Florida, it was a "take out" at an apartment complex and in great condition. So far, three year and counting (knock knock)....
