요약: 6개 구간 중 Turbo Air가 더 저렴한 구간은 2개(Upright 2도어, Display), Panasonic이 더 저렴한 구간은 3개(Upright 3도어, Underbench 2도어, Underbench 드로어), 1개(Underbench 3도어)는 Panasonic 공개가 미확인으로 비교 불가.
해석 및 시사점
이전 답변 정정: 어제(2026-08-19) 웹 검색 2개 사례(업라이트 2도어·3도어만)로 “Turbo Air가 일관되게 저렴하다”고 답했으나, 표본이 작아 생긴 편향이었습니다. TAB 영업팀이 6개 구간으로 넓혀 조사한 결과 Underbench(언더카운터) 구간에서는 오히려 Panasonic이 6.5~17.6% 더 저렴합니다 — 특히 드로어형(1도어+3드로어)에서 격차가 가장 큽니다($1,012 차이).
Upright(리치인) 2도어 구간은 Turbo Air가 확실히 우위(43.3%, 6개 구간 중 가장 큰 격차) — 하지만 3도어로 올라가면 역전되어 Panasonic이 더 저렴해집니다. 도어 수·용량 구간에 따라 우열이 뒤바뀌므로 “Turbo Air가 항상 저렴하다”는 일반화는 부정확합니다.
Underbench 3도어(TA 베스트셀러 KUR18-3-N 포함) 구간은 Panasonic 공개가가 확인되지 않아 비교 자체가 불가능합니다 — 실제로 가장 궁금할 구간(베스트셀러 대응)인 만큼 Panasonic 딜러에 직접 견적 문의가 필요합니다.
Display/Merchandiser 구간은 차이가 1.4%로 사실상 동가 수준입니다.
참고 사항 (원본 자료의 주의사항)
이 비교는 공개 광고가(리스트 가격) 기준이며, 실제 딜러 협상가·물량 할인은 반영되지 않았습니다.
가격만으로 동급 품질 비교로 볼 수 없습니다 — 실제 구매 결정 전에는 용량·치수·냉매·에너지 효율·보증조건·배송·AS까지 함께 비교해야 합니다(TAB 영업팀 권고).
빈 칸(“가격 미확인”)은 확보한 페이지에서 공개 가격을 찾지 못했다는 뜻이며, 추정치가 아닙니다.

Summary: Of 6 brackets, Turbo Air is cheaper in 2 (Upright 2-door, Display), Panasonic is cheaper in 3 (Upright 3-door, Underbench 2-door, Underbench drawer), and 1 (Underbench 3-door) is not comparable because Panasonic's public price wasn't found.
Interpretation & Implications
Correcting the previous answer: Yesterday's (2026-08-19) answer, based on just 2 web-search examples (upright 2-door and 3-door only), stated "Turbo Air is consistently cheaper" — that was a bias caused by too small a sample. With the TAB sales team's broader 6-bracket research, it turns out Panasonic is actually 6.5%-17.6% cheaper in the Underbench (under-counter) segment — the gap is widest for the drawer configuration (1-door + 3-drawer), a $1,012 difference.
Turbo Air does have a clear edge in the Upright 2-door bracket (43.3%, the widest gap of the 6 brackets) — but that reverses at 3-door, where Panasonic becomes cheaper. Which brand wins depends on the door-count/capacity bracket, so "Turbo Air is always cheaper" is not an accurate generalization.
The Underbench 3-door bracket (which includes TA's best-seller, KUR18-3-N) can't be compared at all because Panasonic's public price wasn't found — and this is likely the bracket of most actual interest (matching the best-seller), so a direct quote from a Panasonic dealer is needed.
The Display/Merchandiser bracket differs by only 1.4% — essentially at parity.
Notes (Cautions from the Original Material)
This comparison is based on publicly advertised (list) prices and doesn't reflect actual dealer negotiation or volume discounts.
Price alone shouldn't be read as a like-for-like quality comparison — capacity, dimensions, refrigerant, energy efficiency, warranty terms, delivery, and after-sales support should all be compared before an actual purchase decision (per the TAB sales team's recommendation).
Blank cells ("price not visible") mean no public price was found on the retrieved page — they are not estimates.
