onefixedstarWe've cooked a couple of meals in our kitchen now, and have made a few vital discoveries about the sink-stove-oven-fridge unit, and the kitchen in general:
1. The oven is too small for a standard baking sheet. We actually discovered this the day after we moved in, when we tried to cook a couple of frozen pizzas to feed the people helping us unpack, and found that we had to leave the open door propped open slightly to get the baking sheet inside. Black crust, anyone?
2. The stove has a lousy UI. The dials for the range are set in a straight horizontal line and thus offer no indication as to which dial corresponds to which burner; in order to use a particular burner, we have to test them all.
3. The above process is complicated by the fact that the front left burner doesn't seem to respond to any of the dials.
4. The front right burner does respond, but it appears to have only two temperatures: off, and bright orange.
5. The ice is already starting to accumulate in our defrosted-one-week-ago freezer.
The landlords have not yet responded to my requests for a new fridge and an electrician to deal with the melting chandelier. The super is great, but the management office is not promising.
