One thing I don't get about almost all of not all of these rigs. Why do people put these mini-fridges on the floor. There is all kinds of problems with that. You cannot see what is in the fridge. It's hard to reach. You can push stuff to the back and end up forgetting about it or throwing it away. You're unconfortable every time you need to get to the fridge. It's hard to see and visualize and for that reason also hard to organize. I could see that with a freezer that you don't go into very often or need to organize. The same thing with some house designs and how they put the microwave up above the oven? It it was me, I'd want the fridge a little below counter level. Or maybe not because I might go into it more and eat too much or warm it up too much?
