That solid steel case with the thick enamel kept everything perfect. Its one quirk - the entire contents of my freezer can be a solid block of ice, but it will. not. freeze ice cream. Everything else is a brick, the ice cream is semi-soft.

My refrigerator worked so well it didn't make ice it made ice bergs. My refrigerator worked so well when we lost power during Sandy I didn't lose any food in my refrigerator because the icebox was a solid block of ice and kept everything cold. When my refrigerator finally died it took 4 guys to carry it out. When my landlord sent me a new refrigerator one guy could've carried it under his arm.

It never had a pilot or thermostat, and we lit the burners with a spent butane lighter—the oven with a fireplace match.<br /><br />The stove was red-tagged last fall by a ConEd worker who came up for a different problem. The replacement is a cheap Avanti range that makes me worry every time I light it; the refrigerator the landlord had given us was also an Avanti and it only lasted a year before it died.
