minus-squarevaryingExpertise@feddit.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3arrow-down1·22 hours agoWhat kind of low tech refrigerator has that kind of uneven temperature distribution?
minus-squarebrygphilomena@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·9 hours agoThe kind that has the condenser and evap coils. The area closest to the coils is coldest. The doors often open and close and the air nearest them when closed has to get cold again. And the air is often moved over the coils by a fan. If you block the air flow, then that area gets really cold and will freeze.

minus-squarevaryingExpertise@feddit.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·9 hours agoHm. My refrigerator I bought 18 years ago from a no name brand has a fan that moves air internally when the door is closed.
minus-squareHeyJoe@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·20 hours agoCan confirm, mine does this lol. It’s 9nly a slight freeze and I use it as an advantage to keep things prone to expiring quicker near that area to prolong its life a bit.
