re: kitchen high end appliances really suck

the biggest scam running is “under counter” mini fridges and wine fridges.

$500-$1000 a pop and the reviews on literally every one are horrible. they all crap out in 3-5 years with Freon leaks or electrical issues and the cost to get someone out to repair it isn’t worth what one is new

bought a house with one of each and both of them have died within the 3 years of me living here. looking for replacements online and every review is the same. go on Facebook marketplace and there’s tons of “free” ones with every description “wine fridge, bought new 3 year ago. stopped cooling maybe you can fix it”

meanwhile the piece of crap dorm mini fridge has been at my grandparents house for as long as I have been alive so it’s at least over 30 years old and still ice cold with a solid frozen freezer space up top
