That's annoying
Nov. 26th, 2012 06:55 pmHaving breakfast this morning and the milk on my cereal was not cold. Checked the fridge and it's at room temperature.
I got the fridge-freezer with the house when I moved in 17 years ago and thought it might be time to buy a new one. Checked in Currys just now (Comet now no longer being an option) and they don't stock them the same size as the one I've got. Mine is 50cm wide and 176cm tall, and fits snugly into the space between two cupboards. They do stock 50cm wide fridge-freezers but they are much shorter. (I had a similar problem when buying a new tumble dryer a few years ago, but settled one shorter than the old one.)
What's more, the fridge is sitting on a wooden shelf and that is beginning to buckle. I asked at Currys if they'd fix this and instead they won't install it if the installer believes the set up unstable.
So it looks as if I can't get a new fridge until I get that fixed, and even then I can only get one smaller than my current model.
