A Michigan couple bought a 116-year-old refrigerator for $4,995 on Facebook Marketplace, but getting the massive appliance into their farmhouse proved difficult. Weighing over 1,000 pounds, it required seven weeks of preparation, specialist movers, reinforced floors and additional expenses. Despite the challenges, the couple restored it to working condition and made it a central part of their family home.
