rather than caked with the same filth that plagues the rest of that enclosure.
:smilelol:
What do you think the enclosures on the fridges in yours or just about anyone else's home looks like. Pretty sure they are much worse. At least his doesn't have cheetos, hot wheels and assorted change in there. Have pets?... then dont even think about commenting on the topic.

This. The posted pic sucks ass.
And maybe they did cut it to start replacing the compressor but then changed their mind because you weren't playing nice.

Do you have a pic of how they sent it back to you? Seems hypocritical to tell chastise you about inadequate packaging and then they send it back poorly packaged. Whether your unit was damaged or not they should have sent it back packaged as if it were a new fridge.

Sorry you must be confused, did I say it was specific to Dan's fridge? Reading comprehension man...damn

Well its pretty much all you need for this.. the fridge was working up until it stopped effectively cooling, warranty claim placed and unit shipped. Unit returns and the line is not connected to where its supposed to be. Its doesn't really matter the who or why other than it didn't leave here in that condition, and there's clear evidence that since it left here and its return, that someone had opened it up and messed with it and now has MORE issues than what it left with.

Perhaps I should have been a bit less ambiguous.

Who was present at the very moment when the unit was first opened after it's return? Who saw the cut line right after the last screw first hit the bench, and before the photograph was taken?

Something may have happened between the time it left and it returned, sure enough; but from my perspective, that timetable must be extended, as I don't know who saw what.

Something happened between the time it left, and the time that picture was taken.

Cheers,

Kennith

Jesus Chris Kennith…take a fucking deep breath and back off this shit.

The line looks like is was cut in preparation to replace the compressor and they probably said fuck it...

That's what it looks like to me, but I'm just plain curious.

Well it looks like I’ve found the culprit using the enhance feature in photoshop.

The real question is.. who fucking cares anymore?? It's a p.o.s fridge that belongs to a p.o.s. Let him deal with his mess and let's all move on!!!

Cutting the line is a great way to fuck fred while providing reasonable doubt they were just beginning to help. Either way, freddy's fingered.

Kennith. I'm sure of it.

I've only done it twice so far. You'll fuck up threads if you take things apart too much.

All you've got to do is blow the dust and stuff out when you come back home, and it'll stay clean enough for a few years. You won't get it all, but you'll get most of it. Mine's a damned sight cleaner than that one, and it's about time to clean it out again.

I use it pretty much all the time at home because it's perfect for keeping sodas just above freezing. That's why I blow it out once and a while even if I don't take it anywhere.

Damned thing cost me a grand by the time I got it in my hands. Of course I'm going to keep it as clean as is reasonable. When you buy something nice, you should at least try to take care of it; especially if you use it in adverse environments.

Cheers,

Kennith
