That fridge was really wide. It was a single door but probably
about the same width as the double-dour type. It was not too tall in
my place, only in the nooks of the stairways where we had to bend it
all sorts of oddball, energy-depleting ways to advance it upward. In
the apartment it was so wide it took up enough space that I was from
that moment forced to cut things on the counter from an angle. I had
to stand to the side a bit and work that way. Before getting the
monster fridge, I used to stand in that little extra spot to cut
things up on a board or plate. The fridge was so wide it forced me to
alter my method of stance. But no way was I about to take it down
those steps or go out and buy another one, not only for financial
reasons, but also because I HATE SHOPPING.
