A good fridge freezer and/or one of those big bookcases you divide rooms with 08:46 - Sep 17 with 2544 views | The_Flashing_Smile | Recommendations anyone? Fridge freezers are aplenty in places like Curry's, just wondered if anyone's got one recently that's a bargain or just really good (like has an ice crusher built in or something). And room dividing bookcases. Had a look at these but not sure on the quality/finish without seeing it live: https://www.habitat.co.uk/product/9497511 |  |

I think ice crushers are overrated, they are really a bit frappe |  |

I agree on the freezer ice crusher or any built in water dispenser, they take up valuable space but also often require plumbing in which is a pain if your fridge space is nowhere near you water inlet |  |

I was going to suggest those kallex things. You can either fill them with books for a solid 'wall' or have ornaments on them for a partial divider. |  |

£1800 for a fridge! That's right up Dolly's street... |  |

Yep, they look good at first glace but are quite expensive so not really worth the frost. |  |

To be honest I'm not really bothered about an ice crusher, it was just an example off the top of my head. |  |

This place is so weird. Benters once took umbrage to me paying £90 for a meal for two (which really isn't that expensive in London at a decent place and including alcohol) and now I've got a reputation as someone who splashes the cash! Bonkers, the lot of you. |  |

It's expensive for sausage and mash! Must have come with a bow on top. |  |

Yeah, another vote for Kallax. I have two, with one sat upright for my sons Xbox room. |  | |  |

There'll always be a bit of a reaction to fancy London ways on here, but you did used to open yourself up to it a bit (nobody would have known how much your sausages cost if you hadn't told us). I saw you as a latter-day Samuel Johnson regaling us all with your wide-eyed tales of wonder at life in the Big City. Others just took it as evidence that no-one outside of Suffolk could be trusted. I'd rather be you than them. |  | |  |

Calls us all weird whilst coming on here to ask for recommendations on a fridge freezer and a bookcase. Righto. |  | |  |

Also the door compartments aren't adjustable in any way that's really convenient. |  |

benters would judge the cost of food and drink on 'spoons' prices, ie with no regard for quality. |  |

Why do you need a knockable door on your fridge? Is there a pixie living in it that hands you the food? |  |
