Hitachi lied about their eco-friendly appliances
It looks like Hitachi’s eco-friendly appliance are actually not eco-friendly and the company has been lying about it all this while. Many of Hitachi’s fridges that were claimed to be the most advanced Eco wise by reducing CO2 emissions up to 48% during the production process weren’t. Both the “Eiyo Ikiiki Shinku Chirudo V” and “Big & Slim 60” series, nine fridges in total, claimed to have been built with recycled material were in fact built with standard materials and only three were built with 50% recycled material. To top it up, Hitachi has reported that they will not be refunding any of the customers who have bought their eco-friendly appliances. Now that is some guts.
