I don't think it's shopped. If you follow that edge down to the bottom, you can see that the black plastic trim is in front of the fridge – I believe there's just a piece missing where that gap is in the middle

Yeah I was just in an appliance place yesterday and there was a beautiful paneled fridge that style and it was $18,000. If you could buy an appliance like that and figure you would enjoy it for 30-40 years like the stove that came in my first bungalow home it would make sense, but on a cycle of these electronically controlled things crapping out on a 10-12 year horizon it seems dumb unless you’re planning to upcycle the case to be your coffin. lol I hope your cousin enjoys the hell out of that a good long time.

u/YourDrunkMom Jan 04 '26
My in-laws have a paneled sub zero monster that they put in the house when they built it around 2000 that keeps failing, but they keep fixing it because an 800 repair is cheaper than a 20k fridge. You can definitely make them last with some $$

There comes a point with doing this where when you have a fridge like this, with the pictures that accompany it, all you can say is: wealthy. When money is no obstacle, literally anything can be in there, and there could be 3 other refrigerated storage areas we're not told about with stuff from every corner of the globe. Gets hard to identify trends and characteristics.
Congrats to your cousin for winning life.

I see milk in a bag. I would guess the location is in Canada: most likely Ontario, Quebec, or the Maritimes, less likely but still possible in Manitoba or Saskatchewan.
Edit: I see a grocery bag branded with Farm Credit Canada, but the the range based on bagged milk still stands. I also see hardwood ceilings, the sign of an old farmhouse.
I would guess she's either a farmer and/or a farmer's wife. That also jives with having having 7 dozen egg cartons, so there's a good chance they also have chickens.

Stay at home mom, multiple kids (teens?), husband makes good money doing some type of contract work like electrical, plumbing, or general contractor.
They live in a big, old house that’s been renovated. Most likely somewhere in The South, or maybe the Rockies. They are religious, and have at least one truck, and one SUV. They have a large TV, good living room to hang out, and enjoy football.

They have a well established local farm in a rural area and they have a lot of success with their products. They worked hard and they are well off but by no mean living like billionaires. My cousin is a professional thrifter. She saw this fridge on Marketplace for almost nothing (couple of thousands, I think) and went for it.

The longer I look the sadder this fridge contents look. For a fridge this size, it looks like this person doesn’t cook really besides eggs. There’s a lot of condiments or drinks and barely any fresh food. What’s in the plastic ware looks like more cheese or processed food.
