    Hi.

    I have a the above model since my G/F moved in from her flat. Its convenient as a beer fridge and I have a snake so the frozen mice go in the freezer parts as she is not too comfortable about them being in the main fridge (never bothered me, they are dead 😆 )

    Anyway, went to get a beer last night – Warm beer.

    Freezer had defrosted as well.

    Cleaned it all out.

    Light comes on when door opened. Compressor is running all the time but not getting cold.

    Something is obviously wrong but is it worth getting it fixed?

    I can get a cheap model new for just over £100.

    Can these things really be cost effective to fix or is it just more landfill?

    my bet is landfill. avg life for these is 3-4 years, a self fix will be min of £20 + effort. a refrigeration engineer will anything over 80 quid. plus parts…
