I have a maytag fridge freezer and I got up this morning with daughter saying, water isn't working on fridge door and yoghurt was frozen and other stuff. The fridge has a fan at top left, with daughter and her son here the fridge is full, food and kids stuff, yoghurt fruit (inpottles) cheeses and lots of stuff. The fan was basically blocked off with food in front of it. Decided on a clean out, man food accumulates. Two and a half hrs later it's looking like new. Took frozen water filter out and ran hot water to thaw out. Everything working perfect again. Pile of expired food thrown out. Ice and water working to.

Don't overload your fridge.!!

I'm going to have to clean out mine. I know that there's some food in there that must be thrown away!! :yuck::eek:
 
Took inventory of the outside refrigerator's freezer on Saturday. Threw away some unmarked stuff and took the frozen water bottles out. Have a list of the items and will start using them up. Also put the components for the meat grinder in there as we have two pork shoulders and two beef knuckles to break down and grind. Some of the beef knuckle will be cut for stew meat and roast beef. The pork will be made into sausage. Garlic sausage to go with the confit duck legs for cassoulet and Mexican chorizo.
 
This week, probably Wednesday, I'm going to defrost my stand alone upright freezer. It is cold enough outside that I will put the coolers/boxes outdoors, and will be around to watch for any unexpected predators. I have inventorized it - but did not always remember to note when things have been taken out. This will HAPPEN.
 
and I had him put the list out there with a pen so things could be marked off as used and added as needed. Once that one is done, on to the deep freeze and the refrigerator freezer inside the house.

We've just cleaned the two garage freezers, ice got built up. Some freezer burnt stuff thrown out as well.

We ordered a new Hitachi this morning. The 20 year old Misubishi has finally deteriorated. It took 36 hours to freeze 8 portions of chilli con carne at the weekend.

I'm quite looking forward, nay, excited, about what we may find in the old freezer.

Hitachi Modern Sales Thailand

This one should outlive me.
 
After another dozen phone calls the appliance finally arrived at 14:00. The handles had to be removed to fit it through the kitchen door (even then there was only 2mm clearance!). Now waiting 2 hours for the liquids to stabilise (?) then another couple of hours after switching it on to commence transferring food.
 
"Right," said Nit, "All of us together
One each end and steady as we go."
Tried to shift it, couldn't even lift it
We was getting nowhere
And so we had a glass of lao khow and

"Right," said Nit, "Give a shout for Somchai."
Up comes Somchai from the floor below.
After strainin', heavin' and complainin'
We was getting nowhere
And so we had a glass of lao khow.

Somchai had a think, and he thought we ought to take off all the handles
And the things wot held the candles.
But it did no good, well I never thought it would

"All right," said Nit, "Have to take the feet off
To get them feet off wouldn't take a mo."
Took its feet off, even took the seat off
Should have got us somewhere but no!
So Nit said, "Let's have another glass of lao khow"
And we said, "right-o."

"Right," said Nit, "Have to take the door off
Need more space to shift the so-and-so."
Had bad twinges taking off the hinges
And it got us nowhere
And so we had a glass of lao khow and……

(Lao khow is rice whisky - rather them than me)

I had the same with new dishwasher, had to take off foot screws to make it fit. Slight wobble on it but I'm the main user so all good.
