It's the little things that make life imperfect.

A couple weeks ago my fridge started dying. It was making loud noises and staying on almost all the time.
I'm currently renting so it's the owner's responsibility to replace it, since it's old and outdated anyway. Later on I'll have the option of buying the place with past rent counting towards the down payment.
I sent him a text with not only the exact measurements of the fridge itself but also the space in which it was sitting.
He had two weeks to spare in getting a new one and yesterday it finally arrived. it took the crew only a few minutes to bring it in and another minute to move my small amount of food, and another minute to haul the old one out.
While they were doing this the landlord was clearing out a storage space that was supposed to have been included with the flat, but I didn't need it until now.
lo and behold the now fridge is a whole FOUR INCHES smaller than the old one! what the hell am I going to do with four inches between the counter and the side of the fridge, or between it and the wall? Nevermind that the door opens the opposite way because it's a very small kitchen and I can enter the fridge from the hallway now. But was this the only one the retailer had available? How will this affect the property value?
