Damn Refridgerator.
 

So, the wife and i bought a new fridge. A nice black side-by-side one with the ice maker and water dispensor and such.

anyways, fridge shopping is a pain in the ass. Especially if you have cupboards above the fridge.

So i measured out, from the floor to the bottom of the cupboards 68 + 3/4 inches.

The first fridge we looked at was 70inches tall. We found another one by GE that was real nice that was 68 + 3/4 inches tall.

So i figure it will fit.

The fridge was delivered today, and it turns out i measureed it on the corner and it actually bows up a bit on the top. So now i have to shave off about 1/2 inch from the bottom of my cabinets.

WTF

this is gonnna be a pain in the ass.

/rant

:mad:

My uncle had to do the same thing to his cabinets. He was pissed also.

why do they even put cabinets above the fridge...pain in the ass to get to.

that should put flat screens or something up there..

I had a similar problem with my new fridge. Fits under the cabinets ok, but had an edge about 2 inches where the cabinet stopped that was an inch lower than the dam cabinets. I took a hack saw to it an evened it up..

And yes those cabinets are fcking useless. I can't reach them from the front of my fridge.

Oh and BTW I got stainless side by side fridge freezer/ with ice and water.. Just sayin...:D

I put a wine rack on top of the fridge.

I've got some beer bottles up there..........not the same is it.

Atleast you don't have a small fridge, it looks like I've got about 8-10" of room to grow above my fridge.

We have cabinets above our fridge, too. Stupid-ass things. I usually put kitchen things I only use every once in a while up there so they'll be out of the way. What a pain in the ass it is for me to have to climb up in a chair, get the shit out, and put it all back. :mad:

I finally got the sumbitch in there. Had to use a hand beltsander and just wear it down about 1/8th of an inch and it slid right in.
lol

yah we decided on black with traditional fridge texture cause of little kids and fingertips.

I can imagine the fingerprints with the kids. Geez mine is always got some from my teenager. And i think he actually tries for the handle.. :rolleyes:
