Dometic refrigerator
Hi Dave,
No need to feel alone with your Dometic, the Norcold plays the identical suction game, especially the right freezer side. I have heard Dometic and Norcold seminar speakers suggest the cause is a combination of "great sealing" combined with inadequate owner cleaning of the gaskets wherein food "sugars" breakdown chemically, become sticky and hold the gasket to the frame. I say, "nonsense." I've followed their recommendations for cleaning with warm soapy water after every trip and the one door still acts the same, but no others. Let's blame the engineers! ;-} John Suter 2000LXi Norcold 1200RIM --- David Brady > Folks, > > My refrigerator is very, very difficult to open - > sometimes.
