Hi, I just bought a used refrigerator/freezer.
My problem is that I love to watch TV in my pj's and eat my ice cream before bed. But the freezer isn't cold enough to keep my ice cream frozen, it's melting! However, it is cold enough to keep my ice cubes frozen. I have the freezer temp set on 9, the coldest.
Is there any way to make the freezer colder, or did I buy a lemon of a fridge?
Maybe I just have weird ice cream.
thanks for any advice

If ice cubes are staying frozen you must have weird ice cream.
First, take a look at the rest of the stuff in the freezer, if the rest of the stuff is frozen, then the weird ice cream theory holds.
Also possible is that the ice cream melts a bit on it's way from the grocery freezer to the hot car to the kitchen table before being put in the freezer. Then when you sit down to watch a little tube, it's still not refrozen.
(Happens at our house a lot.)

This is an old topic, posted by someone who probably isn't on the group anymore...what's with the "featured" thing anyway?
Well, my post was going to read something like: try putting your ice cream where you usually put the ice cubes. Those little things sometimes have hot or cold spots that vary pretty drastically within the unit.
The door is always warmer than the back of the freezer. Move stuff around until it works.
