I just had a similar fridge hauled away because I couldn't find anyone to top off the refrigerant. It had to run constantly to maintain a temperature in the low 40s. It was also too small to be practical for storing soda and beer, even in short-neck bottles, so it was a bad decision in the first place.
Which came first -- the push-button door opener or the pull handle like mine (a 1940 model) had?
