    Sleek, clean and holds set temperature well

    This commercial refrigerator is replacing a top of the line True brand commercial refrigerator that was too expensive to repair. So far we've been impressed with the look and function of the Empura refrigerator. The temperature is easy to see (no need for additional thermometers unless you want them) and is easy to set. I think our only concern might be how long the led light strips will continue working since you can't replace individual bulbs.

    Excellent Product, Even Better Service!
