Free: Refrigerator (full size) (W section, Bowie) This refrigerator (made in 2004) is in good working condition (we are renovating and getting a new one). We don't use the ice maker/water dispenser, b/c we were not able to open the filter compartment to replace the filter. Other than that, we have not had any problems with it. Dimensions: 36"W x 34"D x 69"H. It doesn't fit through our doors, but we do have a patio door off of our kitchen (there is one step from the deck to the sidewalk). I have cleaned it, but there are some marks on the two lower door shelves of the refrigerator side that I couldn't get out. If interested, be sure to measure your doors! (you can probably remove the doors to get through) Hoping someone would be able to pick up before Monday, Sept. 21.
