My dearest Lemmy, what is the appliance you have the most beef with?
My dearest Lemmy, what is the appliance you have the most beef with?
The appliance that elicits anger and frustrated at it's mere sight. The treacherous device that never worked right.

The fridge. If you close it too hard or too soft, it ends up not closed, but a fingers' width open.
I have a Samsung that I passionately despise. While it seems to cool fine, they designed an ice maker that either fails and leaks or jams itself with ice so it renders itself unusable.
If I paid a premium price, why can't I just get a modest functional ice maker?
There was a new fridge when I bought my house. Basic ass nothing fancy Frigidaire. No ice machine. I love it.
When I redo my kitchen this year, I'm buying a countertop ice making machine. I've heard too many horror stories about the ones in fridges.
Right now I'm still truckin with the ice trays. Not enough room in the kitchen currently
Yeah we turned ours off and do ice trays. But I wish we just got one without ice.
I might have to try a countertop maker. Good idea!
Just bought a child lock for my freezer because of this
IIRC a trick you can do is take a heat gun (or failing that a hair dryer) and warm up the magnet gasket border thing. Then close the door and leave it for a bit. Something about it better forming to the correct shape and making a better and more consistent seal.
Couldn't hurt!
This works on certain models, I have had success with Samsung and Whirlpool fridges but that's my only experience
That's not the issue. It looks like there is a problem with the hinges. And no, oiling didn't help.
Elevate the front a bit and gravity will do.
Smart idea. I know, because I tried it already. Didn't really work (a slight inclination didn't work, and I didn't want to tile it more).
