Fridge Drop down slide

Seen this fridge drop down slide on other forums, but it seems exclusively sold only in Oz. Of course expensive and I wouldn't even dare ask for shipping costs...

Though it looks very good to mount the fridge on top of a storage drawer and have at an accessable height.

Does somebody know of a UK or Euro dealer or importer?

Cheers, Vincent

Hi VT, I think that one is a Platinum DS $) fridge slide from Australia.

Chris at Boab used to import them into the UK. I do not know the actual supply situation these days on that drop fridge slide.

Now Engel does a tilting fridge slide. It might be worthwhile contacting Simon at MPS Trading as he probably knows more then anybody else in Europe about Engel fridges.

It will depend to a certain extent what fridge you have as well to what fridge slide will be best for you.

Thanks, Brendan.

Actually it is not for an Engel, I have a Waeco CFX35 (I used that picture only as an example). I'll take some measurements and then drop them a line, though I am not (or really my wallet is not) totally convinced this the right solution...

Anyway, thanks for the pointer. Cheers, Vincent

Nothing wrong with a Waeco fridge

Think it was 2014 when the Waeco range come top of an Australian 4x4 survey of fridges.

What would be important is the footprint of the fridge to decide what slider is best plus how the fridge is attached to slider.

Be warned these sliders are heavy, think the straight forward sliders weigh best part of 20 kg whereas the drop down ones are about 30kg.

They are NOT cheap items! Good luck with your search.

Please let me know if you manage to locate one at a reasonable price.
