I purchased a nice but used refrigerator. Now that it is installed and cooling, it has a terrible odor inside.
I have cleaned and cleaned. How in the world can I get this smell out?! I just can't take it.
I'd appreciate any advice.

Sub Zero Refrigerator
If you store refrigerator items at even zero, let alone sub zero, stuff would freeze. Things like vegetables, fruits, milk and on and on can't be stored at sub zero.
So what exactly is a sub zero refrigerator? It can't be that just the freezer is sub zero or it would be called a sub zero freezer.
Actually he can open the refrigerator-
so what is the answer now? He is a smart one, gets out what he likes, the ham, the chicken and just has a feast. Next answer.....
Did you see the pictures of her refrigerator in the Bahamas??????
Loaded with all kinds of IV drugs! Huge bottle of liquid methadone and a bunch of other vials. Oh, and a box of TrimSpa next to it. Ay-yi-yi.
Smells
I have had milk spill down the backside of the refrigerator and turn sour and smell terrible. It went behind the produce drawers and even though I cleaned everythign out time and time again it smelled for a long time. Finally found out it went down to the drip pan underneath the refigerator but that was an older refrigerator. Also if the freeze on is leaking from the freezer it also smells especially when the refigerator is running. Smells can get into the rubber on a refrigerator and sometimes never get out. Go to Heloise page on the web and see if she has any answers.
Talking about smells, I also like
in addition to the bleach smell, gasoline (I would pump gas for a living if I could make a living at that) ,damp basements or cellars, cut grass but nothing like that good gas. Oh, don’t flame folks, I know not to stand there and sniff until I pass out!
...Sure smells like something is very wrong here! NM

For outside, Lantana smells great and is
easy care. Doesn't take a lot of water and it fills a space nicely. Blooms like crazy. If you plant it near your front door you'll smell it every time. Another fun one is daphne. I have winter daphne, but there are other daphne bushes with more fragrance. I'm finding it very easy. Plumbago bush is easy also. Not absolutely sure it's fragrant, but great flowers. I have so much fragrance in my front yard right now I don't know where it's coming from.

I have to buy that one! LOL I didn't even see gingerbread scent.

...and "Gee Your Hair Smells Terrific"...that was my
favorite shampoo - it really did smell "terrific." In fact, I found it in one of those catalogs recently and ordered it - unfortunately, it had no scent whatsoever - just wasn't the real thing...I was hoping to be able to go back in time, but I guess it's true that you really can't go home.
