I was at the Factory to get my slide adjusted and my wife saw a towel bar she liked and wanted to buy it. It was attached to this Samsung RF18.  :o  ??? David's crew did a great job.

Last year, we removed the door handles (for another Forum member) from our dead Dometic, but left the rest of the carcass at FOT.  I always wondered what they did with it...anybody know for sure?  I like to imagine a warehouse stacked to the rafters with old discarded RV appliances - would be a wonderful source of impossible-to-find replacement parts.  On that one factory trip, we removed our old fridge, our old microwave convection oven, the stand-alone ice maker, and the small TV and VHS recorder from the bedroom.  A local Forum member came by FOT and scored the microwave.  I took the ice maker home with me and later gave it to another member.  I think David F. told me a local entrepreneur comes by weekly and collects the used video stuff, but I never found out what happened to the Dometic?

Our old propane fridge ended up in someone's back yard and used as an outdoor dry cupboard to keep things clean and away from critters.  They did not power it or use it for cooling.

That looks great, I was wondering how to put one in as our layout is the same as yours with the wall beside the refer, and want to be able to open the door far enough

It is 33" across so it gives you at least 3" to put a spacer board on the left side so you can open the doors all the way. I lost the drawers underneath.
