My fridge/freezer is like 70/30, and I really wish my freezer was at least 50% of the space of the fridge. My fridge is empty, my freezer is packed because I’m living solo right now and everything will go bad before I can eat it all. What would your dream fridge/freezer be like?

    I was just having this conversation yesterday. Also live on my own, I think mine is 60/40 fridge/freezer, and I need more freezer space. I’m sure I waste a lot of energy with the freezer door open trying to fit everything in like a game of Tetris. I don’t understand the law of physics that says that when I take something out of the freezer and use some of it, there’s no longer space to put the (now smaller) thing back in? I can only assume it’s freezer gremlins messing with me. Ideally a 50/50 or 40/60 fridge freezer would do me I think, but when you’re limited to buying cheap and / or second hand you don’t tend to have many options.

      This is like when you buy some sort of disassembled product in a box and then realize later that you need to return it. Suddenly the box has become smaller because not everything seems to fit back to where it was.

        It’s like one of those low level witch curses isn’t it. “May you never be able to fit the thing back into the thing from whence it came”

      I’d love a 50/50 top/bottom fridge and freezer. I tend to buy in bulk and then whittle down the freezer section while eating the perishables before they spoil. Or freeze what I can’t use.
