[Misc] Are there any fridge experts on here?

[Herr Tubthumper]

I need a wine rack for a Smeg FAB30LPK5. We had one in our previous fridge, new one came without. There does not seem to be any spares for sale on the official Smeg website. I have tried a few companies I have found online without luck.....I cannot find this exact model number.

Any people in the industry who can help? In the first instance I prefer a genuine Smeg part.

You have a pink fridge...?

We do. And?

Bugger the website, I'd get straight on the phone to Smeg.

Failing that, buy a wine fridge

More subtle than the ‘where can I watch the game in…some expensive holiday destination…. threads though.

This is a genuine request.

From a quick look, the model is FAB30L, and the latter bit is the colour, so...

PK5 = pink
OR5 = orange
RD5 = red

...so you probably won't find a wine rack that specifically says FAB30LPK5, but any FAB30L accessory should be fine.

Are one of these any good?

F#ck all that shiit.

Get shot of the old Fridge and buy a bigger fridge with an appropriate wine rack.

And if the new fridge is too big for the kitchen. Build an extension.

And if you can't build an extension. Buy a bigger house.

It saves all that faffing around looking at wine racks

Genuine question (promise) , the compressor on my fridge just broke so am in the market for a new fridge. What does a smeg do that others don’t to make them cost more?

Good point regarding the PK5, hadn’t thought of that. I have found one on smegspares and made an enquiry

Thank you.

Last longer apparently. My last one lasted 18 years. They look nice as well

Possibly. i have looked at these “universal” hanging racks but prefer a wire original part at the moment. I’ll see how desperate I get.

Not aware of any, but I'll ask around at the wine club when we meet across the road in the park tomorrow morning

I dont know why people go for Smeg. I find most fridges are pretty cool anyway.
