Michael,

I have the bruises and a rubber mallet to prove that I have banged on the coils but it didn't do much for me. Temperatures of 40 degrees is fine with me in the fridge compartment - the freezer almost always works fine for me.

I do have one of those little battery powered fans inside but it doesn't help at all. In fact I will often see temperatures at the bottom of the fridge warmer than the top - go figure! And yes the seal appears to be closed all the way around.

My compartment is not perfectly sealed all the way around in the back but it is sealed around the sides. Out cabinets next to the fridge used to get real hot with it running until I sealed that up. Now it is cooler on the sides and in the pantry.

Gel packs and perhaps an ice chest will have to be kept in tow for this situation.
