Is this not normal? I don't think I've ever seen a full size fridge without it. In the US, that is.
Definitely not normal here in the NL
Oh interesting. Are your fridges as wide as ours are normally? I lived in Japan for a few years and their refrigerators are on the whole a lot smaller than ours.
This photo is about average for a refrigerator with the freezer below in the US. A side by side freezer/fridge only has one column, I believe. It's been a while since I've had one like that.
Reiterating what the other guy said about NL ones for the UK; ours don't use that style of system, ours use moulded protrusions in the plastic that glass shelves slide into, in my experience both narrow upright fridge freezers and classic stacking ones use this system
I couldn't explain why they do this beyond hygiene maybe or perhaps safety, as a child can't grab and pull an entire shelf down on themselves?
Thank you for the detailed comment. Our system's shelves would be very hard for a child to pull down. They are very secure and can hold a lot of weight. I find it very interesting what has been adopted across the world and what hasn't.
