A Fridge Too Small. LG 58 Liter

Last week, my mum told me that our old 15 year old 'Tahan Lasak" National Fridge finally broke down and that we have to buy a new one. With much pain in the wallet, i took her to CL Khoon Near Jalan Satok there to search for a new Fridge.

There was a limit to my Budget as I always wonder how much food do we consume and store in the fridge normally? How big of Fridge Do we need? I still got another Fridge at the Back Kitchen.

So we were there looking at the fridges, Panasonic, Samsung, LG and then this one caught mum's eye. So she quickly called me over and tell me she liked this one. To my Amazement, it was twice the size of the Broken Fridge that was left at home. I was thinking, do we even keep so much food at home? With 2 fridge?



I think my mum can fit into the left door of the fridge and I can fit into the right door of the fridge and we can begin our Hybernation if Winter does come to Kuching, then again, if its too freaking and hazy hot like July & August, I can always sleep inside.



When I first saw this Fridge, I feel it was like a huge Vault where we can keep our valuables (mind you, I don't have anything valueable at home, I would keep it at the Bank even if I have).

I ask my mum, "Why you want such a big Fridge?" She Said, "I like the multiple compartments, can put alot of things." Well, since mummy dearest loves it, I have to buy it. So its thanks to HSBC MatsterCard Gold Card again. :) (Just Charged it and earn 13,000 points)

So the next day while I was at work, this LG 58 LITRE was delivered to my house just before dinner. I wasn't there but I know its pretty heavy and big for two person to carry in.

When I got home, my mum was basically excited and cleaning it and polishing it like she just bought a big diamond jewerly. Well, everythings is worthwhile to keep mum happy. And I manage to take a photo of it just before all the food and groceries were put in there.



So after mummy put in the foods and frozen goods. Then she realized, its too SMALL! She told me its too small for her!! I said "Its twice the size of the old one, How can it be too small?"



Here is the reason, its a double sided door, with bigger space for the Freeze side, and less space for the "Keep Cool" Side.. So in actual fact, it is really too small compared to our previous fridge. So now, I have to either get ANOTHER Fridge or we keep less food in the fridge, which to me is a better idea.

The Moral of the Story: Don't Bring the Fridge home until you have decided its really suitable for you. Never judge the Fridge by its beautiful and glamorous designs. And if you do, get ready to buy another Fridge!
