Haven't had/taken time to research Priscilla's comment/suggestion about adding more crisper bins to my existing 'fridge. "Anonymous" left a comment (and link) this morning suggesting a particular Sub-Zero model (Pro 48). Thanks, Anonymous! A quick look at that model makes it hard to tell exactly how many of the two non-freezer bins at the bottom are crispers. Of the four large bins, two are freezers -- and not sure about the other two, though at least one, and probably both, is no-doubt temp/humidity controlled. Visually speaking, this model follows the traditional layout which provides far more freezer space, at the expense of crisper space, than a raw-food vegetarian would need. But I'm going to look more closely. Thanks again for the lead! (Tried to download a 3-D file on the unit hoping for more detail and it is, alas, Windoze-only. How can a company like Sub-zero exclude the part of the buying public that uses Macs?!)
Unfortunately, Sub-Zero appliances are beyond the price range of most consumers. They're great products, but prohibitively expensive for most. I'm just looking for a basic consumer-grade appliance that is affordable and provides more fruit/veggie storage space. But thanks for the input so far. I'll report back (hopefully tonight/tomorrow) on what I find out from my Maytag owner's guide.

Good evenin'...
ReplyDeleteNoticed a little something, while looking at the Sub-Zero site...a 2008 Dream Kitchen Sweepstakes that includes a Sub-Zero Pro 48 refrigerator (maybe they'll let you downgrade to one with a smaller freezer). Just for fun, the grand prize list can be found at www.subzerodreamkitchen.com and also includes a Wolf duel fuel range. Of course, one may need to sell the range to pay the taxes on the refrigerator (smile).
It'll be fun to see what creative solution you come up with!
Blessings, my friend...P.
