My power must have kicked off briefly because my 2nd fridge (in my garage) was off and now it smells musty! I cleaned it w/soap and water and also tried a baking soda water mixture, but it still smells to me. Any sugestions on what to use to clean it?

put some fresh coffee grounds in an open container and put it in your freezer, or kitty litter also works to absorb the odors.

Thanks. I washed it again w/bleach and detergent and put some coffee grounds on paper towels. Hope this works. I've also read somewhere to use vanilla, so I put a small dish in w/some vanilla in it.

You can set a couple Charcoal bricks like for your BBQ grill in there it should take out the smell.

I have used two boxes of opened baking soda and some crumpled up newspaper and it works. Hope your problem is solved soon.

I was told to stuff it with crumpled up newspaper, leave in for 24 hours and that would absorb the odors.
