You haven't seen my non-frost-free freezer apparently. I seldom
use it
and defrost it about once a year when the ice buildup impacts
the shelf
space.

Nonsense, where has the water gone then?

When you defrost the old style freezer you break off the ice and
throw
it away. On a "frost free" it is melted, runs down the back and
drips
out the bottom into a tray under the fridge. The condenser coil is
usually under that tray and evaporates the water into the air in the
house.

I guess people have better frost free designs than I do.

Maybe so.
*Not made by Lucas?
Just an old joke - but "British engineering" tends sometimes to be
something of an oxymoron - - -

Sometimes it is, sometimes it isn't,.* The Dyson and the Vax vacuum
cleaners are both British.* Yet I've had a Vax for 30 years.* Dysons
last about 1 year.

Our Dyson is 14 years old and working perfectly.


You don't have kids or pets.

We had 4 cats, the last of which died about 3 years ago, but what has
pets and kids got to do with it?
