The Frigidaire refrigerator in my apartment (the one appliance I don't own) looks like it may be from the mid-90s. As with the two Frigidaires back at the house, it claims to need no coil/fin cleaning. Ha! I bought a long, narrow brush specially made for the task and cleaned a boatload of dust & lint from the coils/fins under each of the refrigerators at the house.
I'm sure this one needs cleaning, but realized I left the brush at the house when it was sold. May try to get under there with the skinny edge cleaner tool on the upright vac; or, I may just order another one of those brushes.
I'd love to buy a better-featured fridge and let the landlord give this one--which is in good physical shape--to someone else in the building, but am having trouble finding a better one that will fit the very tight space. The current fridge had to be wedged in with a shoehorn. Zero space on either side or at the top. Today's refrigerators tend to be wider and taller than back in 1978, when this place was built. I absolutely detest the wire shelves--I know that's a point of debate here, but I am definitely on team glass--and the shelves on the door can't be adjusted.
Back to topic: Launderess, your prompting has spurred me on to give the fridge a good cleaning, inside and under.[this post was last edited: 6/29/2020-08:50]
