The question we asked was how will we keep our food/milk/etc cold or frozen once the fridge gets shipped, and before it arrives at the other end?
Especially if it is summertime and stuff goes off quick
So we bought one here...
although if you were to buy a new one, but ship your old one over for beer - not a problem!

we find that jars and bottles tend to be a bit bigger here and don't always fit into the door of our fridge, but its not that big a deal and not reason for us to trade in our 2year old fridge. Also my husband spent FOREVER looking at fridges and I'm not going through that again!

Yes well we already have beer fridge here so keeping that one to tide us over whilst other one shipped.

The fridge bit is about the size of a cool box though hence getting one big enough to store bodies in so I say lots of take aways and meals out!

I thought about this for a washing machine - unfortunately most rentals seem to be for a minimum contract of 18 months.
