As long as you can buy a fridge that suits you, things are good. It's the ones that don't that stick in the memory.
Fortunately the English language has a section of vocabulary that (at least a little) eases the stress of dud fridges. oral de-stressing is a traditional remedy that sadly cannot cope with after-sales service stresses common to dealing with appliance dealers with double-barrelled names, Australian parents and investment group owners. Their business is not about appliance dealing, it is much more focused, being devoted purely to maximising the short-term return per square cm of display space. Naturally enough, well paid knowledgeable staff are totally eschewed when they can simply use overseas retrained buffalo herders for phone "help lines" and import mean spirited parsimonious obfuscaters that have a highly developed ability to work for peanuts while driving away customers that have delusion that customer service is not an oxymoron in this workplace or warranties can be honoured without recourse to legal assistance. Total inability to converse in English is an essential staff skill. Common sense is bred out of these people over many generations.
The saddest thing about all this is that for young people today, these will be their "Good old days".
