Okay, I have to make a decision. Which one should I pick and why?

Hope someone chimes in - I have a Viking dbl but it's not hooked - 2ks installed!, because my electrician WON'T SHOW UP!!!! Ok, that's not at you - just venting. I fought my salesman on getting it because I thought they were too overpowering. I know now that I was wrong - they really add to the calmness of the kitchen. I just hope they work by the time the electrician gets here. Someone,... Anyone...???

A few thoughts.. 1. OLD FRIDGES. In my twenties I got a 1953 International Harvestor fridge for free. Yes the freezer was small and you had to fill ice trays. However, It ran flawlessly for 10 years and was still running when I moved on for a "better" fridge. Think of that. It ran maintenance free for over THIRTY YEARS! You simply cannot buy a fridge today that will do that. (btw, 66YEARS LATER these are still being traded in running condition on Ebay for $500 bucks or so!) 2. ICE MAKERS. (and thru the door et al.) Talk to ANY repairman and she will tell you that Icemakers and thru door compononets are absolutely the most common repair problem. ESPECIALLY ice makers that are inside the fridge (rather than the freezer) for obvious reasons. (you also give up valuable storage space in the frig) An ice maker in the freezer is best but still subject to failure. However, freezing ice trays is indeed a pain. THE BEST OPTION (compromise). is an icemaker in the freezer that dumps into a tray. 3. ELECTRONICS AND COMPUTER BOARDS. Again, high failure rates across the board I don't need a computer screen on my frig. I need a frig and a freezer/ice maker with good lighting inside. PERIOD 4. THE BEST FRIG. Would be a simple good looking Stainless steel frig with a simple icemaker in the freezer. That's it. I haven't found it! If anyone does let me know! cheers

DW used to be an attorney at perhaps the nation's most high power corporate law firm. No one there has any time to socialize, but we did go to a dinner once that included one of the very rare female partners . She was super cool and had many interest in common with us, including, for example, a youthful interest in the trial and execution of king Charles I of England, Saint and Martyr (long story). But what most impressed me is that she actually bought the Dornbracht RainSky showerhead. I had been in love with that showerhead and designed my spa bath around it. --I later wound up not buying it because the American version is crippled and improvised something else (which I must post on the Bathroom forum gallery, and will, soon). But she had actually bought and installed the Dornbracht Rainsky. She's not only the only person I know who has done that, but she's the only person not in the trade I've ever met who even knows it exists. So I emailed her yesterday determined to buy whatever she has and the answer is: . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Gaggenau!
