Still won't fix the worn surface of the doors, better rid of it.

I prefer a nice new clean looking door, and a replacement within 4 days.

Easy fix the door with a vinyl wrap!

As far as I know, Miele is not available in LOS.

It most certainly is.  https://www.miele.co.th/   The main office and showroom is in Bangkok and Miele relies on designated retailers around the country. Miele has been in Thailand since 2019.

In the ground. They are a legume.

No way they are on a pea nut tree next to the banana tree!

😳🤣😖

9000 baht is not expensive, 4.5 years sounds ok, buying cheap can be a false economy, go for quality with a decent warranty.

I was in the market for a new fridge-freezer recently. Considered this Samsung one but ended up going with LG USA style one. This one has the fridge on top where it should be 😊

Technology has certainly changed!  IMHO, brands are just that too, they produce cheap and expensive models. But what I can tell you instead of replacing have you thought about going down your local road and look for a Thai repairman those places where they have old washer and frigerators stacked outside. 

 

Go get them to come to your house and take a look many times 1000 baht.  I have a 20 year old Frig fixed for 600 baht wasn't cold it has been two years still going strong!

Still waiting for my Hisense fridge.

Flash Express are the worst delivery company ever.

So true!  I had a delivery problem with them recently and discovered it was impossible to contact customer service by email, phone or online.  Stunningly bad!

Photo, he noted two problem which one is the coldness, second is the comestic of the front peeling wear.

 

Over the years twice I had tenants leave very same frig I store them when time get a repair guy to take a look at them both time repair was less than a 1000 baht. I always end up taking them up to wife farm put to better use.

 

As for the handle if this bothers the person even if frig was working one can buy a new one or wipe it down with a good cleaner, get some fine grit sand paper then prep a 45 can of smoke grey paint and spray the areas and wet sand to blend in.

 

One I think getting the unit cold is top priority second is the looks of the front the choice I would think is cold first. That's me!

I can't speak for my tenants or former tenants they are 100% Thai and trash but my better half what and who we rent to are dirt poor we get what we can. In both cases I noted they left them broken too big or lazy to move them which has been the case there has many times before I say her down intervene knew when the plan to skip out but this is all secondary to the conversation.

For myself I noted while you seem to be grasping for something I don't repair or keep them for myself. If the expense is cheap to fix them that is what I do then put them aside in carport many times have a gathering party I plug them in and place beer, Ice, when it is time once a year to visit in-laws that is where it goes.  If they can't be fixed too expensive I set them out carport and wait for recycle buyer which easily get 500-1000 baht for the unit. These old frig are well insulated ever see those pickup trucks running through Thai neighborhood selling fruit and vegetable of course you haven't you live most likely isolated.

 

For my own home I have main frig double door, black glass, ice maker, 45,000 baht new, washer, dryers, largest model that is made total cost 85-90,000 baht. 

 

I like to fix things if push come to shove I need food to be cold I wouldn't give a flying F what it looks like to be honest nor I care what others think.

 

I do everything myself paint the house, repair roof, electrical, plumbing same with apartment the Thai neighbors 20 years see me with my work clothes torn, paint everywhere, worse than Thai contractors they laugh ask wife why married to him she laughs we can buy anything we want!🤣

Just look around!  I'm not self conscious nor insecure!

Happy for you but that also makes you the biggest Yellowtail fool in the world! But I can also see why the biggest biggest of course more money so you can cool your big head when you respond outside of the conversation. 

All that money spent on appliance for a rental unit. Can you and family sleep in it? Can you drive it to the market to load it up.

This type of spending is usually related to people with small dicks. Good conversation all because you feel others should live with your standard 🤣

I own over a hundred sumptuous rental units all equipped with premium appliances.

 

I also have one of the largest dicks in the world and as can been seen on my only fans account which made me rich.

That is why you a yellowtail, the thread was about a refrigerator you like always ask questions unrelated to the topic or make some childish remark to hijack the thread.

 

You near death mentally can't possibly have what you claim especially a big one even if it was possible your constant lifetime of jerking yourself off is starting to affect your posting you might use that massive appliance to freeze that little sausage 🤣

Bananas don’t grow on trees, they grow on herbaceous monocots, and neither do peanuts, those things grow on herbaceous dicotyledonous species.

So what do you two think that the op should do with the old broken refrigerator? Use it as a toolbox, fill it with soil and bury the hatchet and grow vegetables or flowers? How about a fish tank for koi carp ?

The make great smokehouses. The insulation is so good, it only takes a teaspoon of sawdust an hour to keep them going.

You might want to go back when Yellow originally made his quote to me which is consider first contact

I explain respectfully to original post my opinion as to what to do! When he noted " you look at photo " I did in two parts to the ops problem 1 was the comestic and 2, as to why frig wasn't cold.

Your chime in is late real late I don't think we need to start all over I think the ops got his answer.🤔

Looks same color as the old one

I wonder if it will suffer similar cosmetic detiriattion...
