Whose Refrigerator is This?

OK, look quick – you know condiments will take over in no time!
We knew it was about time to start thinking about replacing our old refrigerator, but we were forced into it when we realized late Saturday night that the old Maytag had completely died with no notice. I was dreading the whole shopping experience and setting up delivery; so thanks to the cold weather serving as our own “natural refrigerator” we agreed we would go on a “scouting mission” Tuesday evening and take it from there. Our first stop was Lowe’s in Perrysburg – what a pleasant and successful experience! Maurice, the salesman, was very low-key, knowledgeable, and personable. We found a “bisque” refrigerator we liked -- it was in stock, and its price was a bit lower than we anticipated. (NOTE: Almond and bisque are OUT – stainless steel, satina, black, and white are IN!)

This new Whirlpool was delivered at 4:40 today – can’t say enough good about Lowe’s delivery schedules! They offer 7-day delivery of your choice and on Tues and Thurs they have 3 windows, including an evening one (after 4) – the salesman even specified delivery couldn’t take place before 4:30.

We’ve gained a bit of space – our old refrigerator was 18.5 cu ft and this one is 20.0 cu ft. It is a few inches wider than the old one so I have to keep the cutting boards on the right side by the trays. ~~K
