A tenant says their landlord replaced a broken refrigerator with a high-tech smart fridge, only to later demand an extra monthly fee to use it.

They received an email from management claiming the new appliance counted as a "premium smart device" that required a mandatory $15 "monthly tech fee," the tenant shared on Reddit recently.

'It Is A Fridge.

It Keeps Milk Cold.' According to the tenant, their original "ancient" refrigerator had been failing for months before finally dying completely.
