Let's get down to facts about this question of Kelvinator prices.
You know that when you buy a Kelvinator you get some- thing better. But do you know that you get it for less money, and get something bigger as well?
Dollar for dollar, Kelvinator gives you greater food capac- ity -more ice cube capacity -more downright quality
and beauty combined, than any other system you can buy. Model for model you will find Kelvinator prices actually below others.
This being the case-and it is -why be satisfied with any other system but Kelvinator? It costs less at the start; much less in the long run, and there's an attractive house- hold budget purchase plan for those who desire to use it.
