Thank you Karen for the information.

Well. saga finally finished today... xcept I'm not happy with the monstrosity in my kitchen. I've got a tiny kitchen... There isn't much room...

Anyway, the day after my fridge died, we went and ordered a new one. Said it'll deliver Monday 28th.

Called to find out whats going on... They tell me ??? computer is down so no info.
called later in the day... "oh what? your order is scheduled for delivery on Jan. 22 2010."

What ever happened to delivery no porblem on the 28th?? (never trust a salesman)...
TRIED TO CANCEL THE ORDER... that was a long story in itself.

Well managed to go to a big box store of sort and ordered another fridge. much cheaper and unfortunately much bigger size... tells me no problem for delivery on 29th.

I'VE GOT IT NOW!!! They had to take the fridge apart out on the street so it would fit in my house and have it reassembled in my tiny kitchen.

It reminds me of "little shop of horrors" FEED, ME!!! yikes. Why can't I get a nice smaller fridge? Why does it have to be MEGA-SIZED, never mind the super-sized??

I need a stool to reach the back of the top shelf.
