Morning All

Still here, still ~~grimacing~~ smiling.

A rubbish night with broken sleep my neck is all "noisy" in the turns/moves, sounds like I am stirring a bucket of sand/gristle.

Family BBQ Monday, so of course that is forecast for the worst weather of the Easter break.

Never mind, onwards & upwards eh?

Well............ This morning I find my new fridge is still at 20 degrees inside, motor hot but cold it's not
Second fridge in three days, Zanussi and I left it four hours to settle, set temp control on half way and switched on, been on all night and still at 20.
Same happened to the last one which was a Bosh
I should have gone to Currys, taking this back and see what they say as he assured me it was working as they had tested it
is it me ??

Fridges & freezers have to be left to stand switched-off upright for a few hours after they have been transported to allow the fluids to drain down in the compressor, else they will not work.

EG from the Beko Website.....
Relocating and Installing

Once your fridge has been safely moved into the kitchen of your new home, it needs some time to settle before you can start using it. You should let it stand unplugged, in an upright position, for at least 4 hours to allow its compressor oil to settle.
You can plug your appliance in once 4 hours have passed. Make sure that the thermostat control is set to ON but don’t start loading food right away. Allow your fridge some time to cool down to temperatures safe for food storage, which might take up to 12 hours.

For more information on installation, head over to our guide on how to install your Beko refrigerator.

Left it stood 3pm till 8.15pm before plugging in

Does the radiator/condenser on the back feel warm?

Well that's really odd then. It is usual to just have to leave them for a few hours so in order for the compressor oil to settle back down.
I hope it is brand new and under warranty.

Motor was quite hot

The rad should feel a degree or 2 warmer than ambient, not a huge difference

Sometimes the compressor oil blocks the rad if it is transported on its side/back, which is why they say leave it to drain out and back to the compressors sump.
@landowner left it for a good amount of time to drain.

Think i left mine overnight before turning it on, just to be sure

Now for a couple of mine. I am restricted on the number I can put on 'cos the hamster wouldn't eat its breakfast this morning.
See below - I've just woken the hamster up so it should be working now.
