6. TV trays and platters
Oversized, flat household essentials always seem to end up on the refrigerator top because, really, where can they go? For instance, TV trays need to be handy, but unless you have a dedicated cabinet, storage is tricky.
The surface above your fridge looks so inviting after you’ve been aimlessly pacing about trying to find a good spot. However, according to safety experts, objects like trays and platters are items you shouldn’t store on the top of your fridge. But they point out that not all risk is equal.
For instance, larger platters that are reasonably flat carry less risk, but you still need to use a heatproof rubber mat to ensure you keep objects from moving around.
