Many folks say their Domectic works "great", others say "not say great". I think part of the problem is that "great" is a subjective term. One persons "great" is another persons "not so great". I would like people to report the actual temperature differential between their frdige and the outside air on a hot summer day. Summer temperatures where I live frequently exceed 90. The min temperature that raw beef or chicken can be stored at is 40F according to the USDA. Thus, my fridge needs to generate at least a 50 degree differential (90-40=50) on a hot day for it to be "great" in my mind. I don't think I have seen any data on the list demonstrating anything better than a 45 degree differential. A 40 degree differential is "great" if it is 75 degress outside and you want a cold beer, but it sucks if it 90 is degress outside and you want your chicken breast to be safe to cook up for dinner. jake 82 westy, fridge is "not so great" |
