Can anyone give me any advice?
A few weeks ago it started buzzing quite loud, which stopped when the door was opened. At this point it was still working as normal. Last week the fridge part stopped working, but the freezer was ok. Today both sections have packed up and the Mrs is not happy. Its a SHARP SJ140D by the way.
Karma for any advice.
Thanks in advance.

Fair comment. We'll leave there then.
I still say you'll be going down to Curry's sooner than you'd like though.

they only have 2 major componants - a compressor and a thermostat.If it was buzzing then packed up its liable to be your compressor which gives you 3 options:1.replace the compressor which may be expensive.2.the compressor may need regassing in which case this is the cheapest option.or thirdly you may have to cut yer losses and buy a new one.
You need to weigh up how much you paid for it and how long its lasted and see if a repair is economical or not.
HTH. I dont know how the law works in Japan about disposal of your old f/freezer.In the Uk you have to pay although Currys will collect it for free.maybe a retailer in Japan works the same

The Mrs reckons there are computerised fridges where you can see inside from the outside or summat, and i dont mean see-though. |

perhaps the idea is that you can't see the fridge at all making your kitchen look bigger?

Egg Slicers are fucking briliant Sidders.
You only hate Egg slicers because you haven't got one, and none of the shops will sell you one.

 Every home should have one. Except Sid's. Because he's not to be trusted with one. |

I once knew a man who was addicted to egg slicers. Fucking loved them he did.
Didn't like eggs though. He was fucking gutted when he realised.
He moved to Peru soon afterwards and we've not heard from him since. Totally wrecked his life and that of his family.
I just find it so hard to comprehend that a man with such passion and love for egg-slicers could have his world torn apart so furiously by the very same thing.

Pineapple, that would make a magnificent novel.
I shall start upon the screenplay immediately. My offices in Sandwell shall make contact with Brad Pitt and Scorcese will direct. They will all want a fucking piece of this. It's the greatest tragedy commited to print since Port Vale's fixture list for last season.

i think those fridges just have a computer screen on the outside
you have to type in what you have bought and what the best before date is
it then tells you what to get and when to get it
