sounds like it is going to be around 14,000 dollars unless you live in Southern California. There it will be 11,999 dollars... there goes the slightest chance I would have bought it.

Love it, but I've got to have an "in door" ice maker. Wish there was such a thing, I'd be putting it in my new kitchen!!

If you can afford the best, I can't believe you would be drinking filtered water from the door. This beauty was developed for a highly refined consumer... not just the average person.

From what I've seen recently, the price is in the range of $11,000 to $12,000.

I just fell in love. Second mortgage, refinance, move. Whatever it takes. Actually, I am building a home in the Carolina mountains in the spring of '07. This bad boy will be my electronic babysitter...

Its a beautiful refrigeator but i would like to know the price, because i want it

I guess you can truly call it love at first site. I wish i knew the true price of it. I feel it should be posted so people don't form their own opinion on the price if it's 12,000 I would be intrested in buying one. I thought it would be 20,000+ their is light at the end of the tunnel after all.

From a technical stand point, its a great piece of engineering, no doubt about it... But, the funny thing is that just as our waists seem to be perpetually expanding (were the fattest nation in the planet) now, so are our refrigerators. it would be nice if Sub-Zero made one half it's size. As a nation, we also claim the the unfortunate distinction of wasting the most food. We buy too much crap (full of artificial flavorings and colorings, stabilizers, fillers and preservatives), it sits in the refrigerator and it spoils and gets thrown out, eventually. With millions of people around the world starving to death, our conspicuous consumption, this addiction to keeping up with the Joneses and then surpassing them, (more, more, more, bigger, bigger!) in short, our GLUTTONY, is just sinful. Who the heck needs 6 behemoth refrigerators in a single family home? Not even some of the best chefs in the world have more than a one in theirs since ther's no need if you buy fresh food and consume it right the way. Sorry but, it's VULGAR, that's what it is.

Our 648PROG was installed yesterday, It is a beautiful frig. The freezer is the part I love, My wife is in a wheelchair. this freezer is easy for her. three compartments have adjustable temperatues. the price is worth it.

We bought one, sent it back. It was TOO SMALL!

Way to much money for a frig ! $15,000.00 for a frig! Get a grip on reality. What average working person is going to buy one. Don't get me wrong it's a beautiful frig. I would love to have one ! But for that price I could buy a car.

The people that are able/willing to purchase this fridge will probably not consider buying a car for that price. This is not a fridge for your average middle class peops, just like a Ferrari will most likely never be purchased by that family that owns that little house with the garden gnomes down the street. Just enjoy a hot piece of design, and try and not leave too many nose prints...

My mobile home has never looked better!

I fell in love with it...... I want to place it in my kitchen in the Aegean Islands in Greece. Can I buy it from the U.S. with 220volt

so I am doing a high end flip - think there is a value here for the 2 mil house? or should I stick with the old stanby 632?- anyone know the width?

We don't have any money left either, but our kitchen in our new custom home will be beautiful!

Does the price include installation, delivery, etc? just wondering what I'll get for paying a $6000 price tag.

I am about to purchase this for $12,609.03 from a Greenville, South Carolina retailer. Does anyone know where I can find this in the $11,000.00 range? Have truck, will travel.

I visited a retailer in chicago and the price was about 13,000. At first, i though it was huge but if you have 3 boys in your household like me who loves to eat then this is a must! beatiful piece and would consider buying for the new house.

OK, so I am building this EnergyStar@ rated home, with 2x6 exterior walls w/brick veneer, tight construction, tightly sealed ducts, and even solar...but my kitchen with this Zub-Zero is just plain heavenly beauty...but this frig...now gobbles up all my energy savings. Sub-Zero, and all we fellow kitchen enthusiasts...got something that WON'T KILL THE ENVIRONMENT?

where do you order one? at the website or at some store

All these posts and not a single comment about performance.....lol..why but it?....cause it looks good?....california toys for california girls....should be marketed as the ultimate fridge for the ultinme dummy...on the other hand maybe thats exactly their strategy.

I purchased the Pro48 back in '06 when they first hit the market. Was told I was one of the 1st on the East coast to obtain one (back-up orders for the West Coast). During delivery (special truck needed) the frame was was damaged due to too tight of belt used by delivery department. Needless to say, a new one was sent (from the West Coast) the following week. Although my husband thought I was crazy for wanting to spend $12K on a frig (went with GE top of the line appliances to offset cost)I am still in love with it. Its the focal point of my kitchen. Only down side is that my diamond ring scratched the door when opening and I still cringe when my 5 & 8 year old slam the door.

we just bought a maytag side by side 26.7 cu ft. for $800.00 after rebates. it does everything this does and it came in stainless steel for a few hundred more. if you think this will keep your food colder, fresher, and longer, you should spend the $12,000.00 for it, or contact me and i'll sell you my maytag for only $5,000.00 and have it delivered free.

Until I saw this Fridge I thought the Liebherr from Germany was the ultimate - I too live in a country where 240 Volts is used so I guess we cannot use this Fridge here. it is a thing of real beauty and something I'd be very happy to own. We opted for a jenn-Air unit and are very happy with its performance. To the person who said no one had talked about this fridge's electrical performance, I believe it is extremely efficient. Steve

So I see from west coast to east coast a sub-zero price for the same model can vary by, it appears, $6000?!!! I can't get dealers to be straight with me on the phone, they just want me to come in. I just want a good ball park figure for a 632 on the west coast. Live in Wa State but willing to drive the truck and pick up. Can ANYONE be straight about what to figure in my budget without having to go into a store and listen to the speel?

I had never heard of Sub Zero and bumped into one yesterday at the Miele Kitchenshop in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, Europe. Between $12 and $13,000 in the USA. How about $36,800 in The Netherlands, Europe. I think I will wait a bit longer.

I fell it love with this beauty, in Canada they want $19 900 for it, I think its time to do some cross border shopping! It would look fantastic in my 550 sq. ft. apartment!

We have the PRO 48 in our pool house, and decided to go with the new BI 36 (2-Frig) (2-Freez) in our kitchen for 144" of pure bliss...!!! SUb-Zero cannot be matched...PERIOD....

"For once in our life we LOVE our fridge!" Were you really staying awake at night loathing your fridge? This was your big problem in life - that you didn't care for your refrigerator!? Give me a heaping helping of THAT awful life...

Several comments were arguing that Pro 48 is extremely large. We just baught one and it appears to be sized just right. It is true that the weight is way up and it required a large team to move it around. However, the interior size is not huge. Our previous refrigerator had an interior volume of 18.5 cubic feet. The Sub zero Pro 48 interior is 28.5 cubic feet. This is larger indeed but huge? Not in our opinion. For one thing, our previous refrigerator could not fit pizza boxes, could not hold medium sized pans and we were always in space shortage in the fridge, even if we don't cook a lot (just two people in the house). It even did not make ice, feature for which we were almost ready to buy an ice maker. People complaining about the size of the Pro 48 did not notice that this is a counterdepth unit allowing for extremely easy access to its interior. We looked at a variety of fridges in stores like Sears/Home Depot and for an equivalent interior volume, they all posed serious problems of access into and around our kitchen. Not this unit. Please note that there are no door shelves and the access to the interior is extremely easy. Also, it does not interfere (when opening the doors) with neighboring cabinets. We have friends who bought cheaper but bigger fridges and had to surrenter even bigger kitchen space to accomodate them. In some instances, the extra space required was probably double of what the sub zero took from our space. In one case, the fridge was so big that it needed to be placed in a corner at 45 degrees effectively dwarfing everything else around it. Even the energy efficiency is an interesting question. Our old fridge, manufactured in 1999 (Kenmore model 48042) uses 777 Kwh per year. It is interesting to note that Zub zero 48 pro uses only 685 Kwh/year, has about 30% larger interior space and makes ice too. For comparison with the car purchase opinions, all the new cars available for sale today, and having the interior available space and features similar to our old car are at least 25% less fuel efficient. This means twenty five per cent or more less fuel efficient! I am really serious about this: if there was a car offering the features we like in our old and still running strong wagon, and having comparable fuel efficiency, we will buy two, effective immediately. To buy one that is less efficient? To buy something else, lacking the features that we learned to appreciate and helped us save money in a variety of ways over the years? Now, it may be true that other new fridges are significantly more efficient. However, I am not sure how those calculations were made. Just the fact that the Sub zero has 6 separate doors/drawers makes me more confortable to reach inside knowing that I am not opening a huge door exposing the milk and everything else when I just need the carrots. I am afraid that sub zero is more efficient than actually advertised, precisely because of the individually accessible compartments. It seems to me that someone in this company trully designed a fridge that connects with people providing features that are convincing. It is interesting that not even the Sub-zero customer service is aware of the capabilities of this unit. I called today to ask if the sliding stainless steel bins (pans) can be used for cooking and they told me it is not recommended. And yet, in their press release in May 2005 they mentioned that you can marinate the meat in the pans, keep it in the fridge, transfer the pans into the oven, cook, and (I assume) when it is cold enough slide it back into the fridge. That is a feature that they should know about! (Has anyone cleaned cooking pans just because there isnt much space into the fridge and everything needs to be transfered into plastic containers? Then clean the plastic containers? Then clean the smaller plastic containers?) The price is indeed high. However, I am not aware of any car at this price range that would make me feel happy about the purchase. Not even the very expensive cars would not make me happy because they lack on features I want and excell mostly on good looks and shear power. This fridge just happends to be beautiful, heavy and pricey. It is much more than that while the existing new cars are only beautiful (some), heavy and pricey.

I love my 48. Have 4 kids and entertain ALOT. My kids, their friends and party guests would always end up wearing out the plastic parts in our other other fridges. In our newest home I told hubby about the Pro 48. He thought I was crazy (price). He saw it in person and fell in love as I had already done online. We are both avid cooks and often feed many people at once. We have a 6 burner Wolf cooktop with a flat grill and the 48 was the perfect complement to our "entertainers" kitchen.

Looking for used pro48 or pro48g call robert at 702-303-7149

The SubZero showroom told us the "suggested" price for Pro45 stainless steel door was $16,100. They said dealers' prices would differ but the dealers tell us they are forced by SZ to charge $16,100. Isn't that illegal price fixing? Anyone have any info on dealers that sell lower than "suggested"? We are in Phoenix area. lisa@the3dstudio.com

I am selling a pro 48. Best offer takes it. Located in Northern Michigan. Contact shermanmichael1@gmail.com

Looking to find a Pro 48 near Asheville, NC. Anyone know the best place or know of a used one for sale around here?

I have a Traulson Dual Temp 48 inch. I love how it looks and we use every available inch. I don't love that it sounds like an excavator. It is so loud. I'm wondering if the SubZero Pro48, is quieter. SubZero did copy Traulson, but the price tag is more affordable than the Traulson version, which retails at around $29,000. It is easier to get trade prices on these, though.

I thought I'd mention that we have a Wolf 60" Dual Fuel Range and a Sub Zero Pro 48 Refrigerator/Freezer for sale! They were installed in the house for 3-4 months but divorce caused the house to be sold and now the appliances. they both have 2-3 years of parts warranty left. We are asking $9500 each or if you purchase both we'll do a pkg price of $17,500. Obviously well below retail on both. We just want to end this chapter of our lives. They can be shipped locally or across the country. Email me for additional info or you can check out the listing we just put on the Minneapolis, MN craigslist. These are both in BRAND NEW condition and are currently displayed in a friends appliance showroom (he has them listed in the showroom for $12,500 each). We can send photos or if you are in the MN area you can stop by the showroom to see them. email us at arab_horse_lady@yahoo.com (be sure to include the underscores between the words or it won't be a valid email address).

We have a SZ from 1989 and just bought the pro48 with the glass door. My old one STILL works fine but we are remodeling and fell in love with this beauty! We live in N.Y. and paid $16,800 without tax and delivery so they are a bit of money.Can't wait to get it though!! The door illuminates at night and acts as a night light - my kids loved that part!! Would like to know if anyone would want our old one for maybe parts or just an extra fridge.... it is in excellent condition still.

i bought one for 2700$ with the glass door!!!. it was from a house that had gone into foreclosure and they were selling everything inside of it.It was brand new, still had the little stickers that hold the drawers in place when you first buy them I couldnt believe my eyes when i saw the price. ive seen a few for sale online for 5-7 thousand so keep looking people, theyre out there.
