OK lounge, it is once again time for "Give me your appliance tips".

I didn't write it all down the last time we went thru this, so humor me. Right now, I am getting a maddening beep from my Whirlpool side by side. I've watched a million videos trying to figure out how to shut it up, to no avail. The fridge works pretty well otherwise, except that it freezes stuff in the top left corner of the fridge part. It has been doing that from day one, but I just deal with it. If I could just get it to shut up, my life would be fine again. But I'm pretty sure I am going to snap and take a hammer to it soon. So give me your new fridge choices. And please include the "never again" brands (Is it Samsung here?). And if anyone wants to toss out any ideas on how to disable the beeping, that would be most awesome. Thanks.
