hi,
second post in a row.

I am moving out soon, and have been living in my current apartment for 2+years. this is my first move in CH.

questions:

the stove (glass top): One of the burners was NOT working when we moved in. Someone came to inspect, and said someone from the Electrlux company would come to fix it. No one ever came, and I never really did anything about it because i did ok with just 3 burners (and i'd just arrived in a new country, with a dif language, and I had other "more important" things to take care of than a stove burner).
Now that I am moving out, I start to wonder how that will play out. I am going to be charged for a repair that was never done in the 1st place? Is a tenant usually charged a "service" fee for the appliances in the apartment? Is there a way to prove that the repair never happened? (or for them to "prove" it did?)

The refrigerator:
I have broken a refrigerator door shelf, and cracked a couple others.(too much weight ... I am pretty sure this will come out during the move out inspection (as i read in another post that the stove and the fridge are the two things that are inspected more closely). What are my options?
leave them hope for the best or expect to be billed? (how much?). try to find a replacement? (WHERE?) super glue them?

again:
Is a tenant usually charged a "service" fee for the appliances in the apartment? would this fee cover "minor" repairs such as a stove burner and a fridge shelf?

thanks.

If you made the claim that is was not working when you moved in,
officially, black on white (I do not mean racist) on paper and submitted it
to your landlord... it should be their responsibility to get it fixed (Since it
is an item attached to the apartment).

That will probably be your responsibility to prove that it was never fixed.
Did you complain to the landlord? Did you mention now and then that
the stove was not yet fixed? Put yourself in their shoes, what would
you do?

My suggestion, don't try to fix. Simply replace. Get the model number
off the fridge, take it to Fust and order a replacement. It'll show your
initiative and that you are making an effort.

When you moved in, you completed an inspection with the landlord. You
usually have 30 days to make any other written statements to the
condition of the apartment and appliances. If you failed to note any
shortcomings, then it is your responsibility to see that they are clean
and absolutely in top working and visual condition. If you completed the
forms and lists, noted every scratch and stain... then good for you. As
long as the appliance or state of cleanliness is the same (the amount of
time you rented is considered and some wear & tear is allowed) there
should be no problem.

If you trashed the place, leave a mess and broken appliances behind.
Then expect NOT to receive your deposit returned with a friendly smile!
