CX Series Bottom Mount Fridges
MR-CX450ER-SS-A
Designed for everyday kitchen use, the CX Series 450L bottom mount fridge in Sterling Silver combines advanced cooling, flexible storage and a compact footprint, making it a practical choice for apartment living and modern Australian homes.
Organisation designed for everyday living

Designed around everyday kitchen use, the MR-CX450ER-SS-A balances a compact footprint with a generous 450L capacity. The three door bottom mount layout keeps frequently used fresh food at eye level, while the freezer is positioned below for easy access. Well suited to an apartment and a smaller kitchen, it packs advanced cooling and storage features into a space-efficient design without compromising usability. The Sterling Silver finish adds a clean, contemporary look that works well with both light and dark cabinetry, offering a lighter metallic option within the CX Series.

The Multi Airflow System circulates cool air evenly throughout the fridge, helping maintain consistent temperatures across every shelf. Working alongside inverter technology, the MR-CX450ER-SS-A responds to daily usage patterns to support stable cooling while managing energy use efficiently. The Sliding Chilled Case provides a dedicated lower-temperature compartment suitable for meats, dairy and delicatessen items without freezing. In the vegetable drawer, VitaLED lighting helps slow wilting, supporting produce freshness and helping fruit and vegetables stay crisp for longer in everyday use.

Practical storage features support flexible day-to-day use. Inside the fridge, adjustable shelving and the Two-Way Flexi Glass Shelf allow space to be easily reconfigured to accommodate taller items without sacrificing usable shelf area. Wide door pockets provide convenient storage for bottles and frequently accessed items, while the dedicated vegetable drawer keeps fresh produce neatly contained. The bottom mount freezer drawer provides organised pull-out storage, with a top tray divided into two sections—one for ice produced by the Automatic Ice Maker and another for smaller frozen items—helping keep the freezer tidy and easy to access.
Great for storing dairy products, fresh fish or meat and chilling drinks.
The Supercool Chilling function is ideal for storing meat, fish or other perishable food at about -3˚C to 0˚C without freezing it. This provides the convenience of food ready to cook without the need to defrost it. Please note this mode must be manually set in order to function.
There is no need for a separate plumbing connection. The removable water tank can be filled with water and the Ice Maker is ready to go!
The Tempered Glass Shelves are easy to clean and built to withstand up to 100 kilograms of weight.
Make the Tempered Glass shelf deeper or push it in for more space. It is ideal for storing taller items such as a salad or dessert bowl.
Designed to maximise the freshness of produce. The drawer features a higher humidity than the main refrigerator compartment and is ideal for storing and keeping fruit and vegetables crisper and fresher for longer.
It is roomy enough to fit bulky items such as ice cream tubs, loaves of bread and frozen vegetables. The top tray is ideal for storage and organisation of flat pack items such as meat packs. A second section of the tray at the top of the drawer collects ice made by the Automatic Ice Maker.
With different temperature points in the fridge, this technology efficiently cools all food, even in hard-to-cool places such as filled door pockets.
The number of stars on the energy rating label helps you compare the efficiency of one refrigerator to another of the same volume and similar type.

Three door fridges are designed to support everyday organisation while making efficient use of kitchen space. With separate compartments for fresh food, vegetables and frozen items, the Mitsubishi Electric 450L bottom mount model allows food to be organised more clearly and accessed easily without opening the entire fridge, supporting more consistent internal temperatures during daily use.
Another advantage is the ability to enjoy features typically found in larger fridge designs, such as an Automatic Ice Maker and a dedicated Sliding Chilled Case, within a more compact footprint. This makes three door fridges a practical option for apartments and kitchens with limited cavity space, while still offering generous capacity and modern functionality.
The Automatic Ice Maker uses a removable internal water tank, allowing ice to be made without any plumbing. Simply fill the tank with your chosen water source, reinsert it, and the fridge automatically produces and stores ice in a dedicated section within the freezer drawer. Unlike plumbed ice makers, this system avoids the ongoing cost of filter replacements and gives you full control over the water used to make ice. It also offers greater installation flexibility, making the fridge easier to position or relocate and well suited to apartments, rentals and kitchens where plumbing access is limited.
The Mitsubishi Electric 450L 3 Door Bottom Mount fridge is available from a wide range of retailers across Australia. You can use the Find a Stockist tool to locate stores near you and see where this model is available for purchase.
Visiting a retailer lets you view the fridge in person, compare finishes, and speak with sales staff about its suitability for your kitchen space and needs.
You can use the Mitsubishi Electric Fridge Finder App to help identify fridge models that suit your lifestyle, kitchen space and design preferences. The app guides you through a few simple questions to narrow down suitable options based on capacity, layout and features.
The VR Photo feature allows you to input your fridge cavity dimensions and see which models will fit within the available space. By taking a photo of your kitchen and outlining the cavity area, the app overlays realistic fridge images so you can compare different models, colours and finishes before making a decision.
Available for iOS devices.
All Mitsubishi Electric fridges come with 5 years warranty on parts and labour and 10 years warranty on the Inverter compressor.
Yes. The Mitsubishi Electric 450L 3 Door Bottom Mount fridge is designed for smaller kitchens and apartment living, combining a compact footprint with generous internal capacity. The three door layout helps make better use of vertical space, avoiding the wider cavity requirements of many French door models while still delivering practical everyday storage. If you’re comparing options for limited spaces, our guide to the top refrigerators for small spaces and apartments offers helpful advice when choosing the right fridge for your home.
No. The Automatic Ice Maker does not require a plumbed water connection. It uses a removable internal water tank that is filled manually, allowing greater flexibility in where the fridge can be installed. This makes it well suited to apartments, rental properties and kitchens where installing a permanent water line is not practical, while still providing the convenience of automatic ice production.
The CX Series features steel door finishes, available in the following colours:
The CGX Glass Series offers a glass door finish, available in:
The differences between the CX and CGX Series relate primarily to the front doors and drawer finishes. Internal layout, capacity and core features are comparable across both series, allowing you to choose the finish that best suits your kitchen design.
To allow for proper airflow and efficient operation, the following minimum clearance dimensions are recommended:
Ensuring these clearances are met helps support performance and longevity. Always confirm your fridge cavity dimensions before installation and refer to the installation instructions for full guidance.
Moving or installing a fridge requires care to help protect both the appliance and your home. Important considerations include transporting the fridge upright, allowing time for the refrigerant to settle before switching it on, and checking access points such as doorways and hallways in advance. For more detailed guidance, our fridge moving FAQs cover the most common questions to help make installation and relocation smoother.
Mitsubishi Electric has been recognised for quality and reliability, earning the CHOICE Best Brand Fridges Award multiple times.
