I want to give them the benefit of the doubt and say perhaps it’s a deep freezer that is only opened occasionally, and I guess is pretty well sealed as long as it’s closed.
The kitchen appears to have one of those built-in fridges that matches the cabinets:
I think that might be one of those fancy steam appliances to steam/press clothes, especially with it being next to the washing machine. I’ve seen them around Costco.
Couldn’t it also be a drying cabinet?
Sure storing food there would be…problematic.
But you don’t find the prospect of a cold beer within reach while having a shower or taking a shit appealing?
Problematic for me, man.
Suddenly every shit is a beershit.
Maybe it’s a hot water tank? They can often look fridge-like however I’ve never seen one like that.
That is definitely not a hot water cylinder, it’s free standing.
