Don't Like - Non Magnetic Fridges

If the kitchen is the heart of a home, then the fridge is the heart of the kitchen. The fridge offers the most personal and and heartwarming look at a person’s life—at least it should. That isn’t because of what’s inside the fridge, though that’s quite revealing in its own right, but for what goes on the outside. When I go to someone’s house I like to take a second to see what pictures and things are on the fridge and take notice of the magnets that are holding them up. It creates a snapshot that tells a story. Who doesn’t want to see a picture of someone’s cute niece held up by a Harley Davidson magnet? Or maybe you see a newspaper clipping from some seminal sports moment held up by a magnet from a small esoteric museum… Whatever the things are, a well decorated fridge goes a long way to making a house feel like a home (pardon the cliché). This is a great cultural truth that transcends race and class, and yet the most recent trend in refrigerator design is to make fridges that don’t work with magnets. How is that possible? Whoever thought that of point of a kitchen is to display a clean, elegant slab of stainless has totally lost the plot.
