Dunno why seller thinks this is 80s…anyway: 1st Time in decades I've seen a Spacemaster in this configuration. $75. I'd love to have it for the novelty--stylish looking thing, too.

I think this was the model that you convert the upper left compartment to a freezer or refrigerator. Samsung has a model that does this. It has all been done before. | ||

 Just about everything Samsung does has been done before.
The cold controls are of similar design to my mom's '75 Coldspot side-by-side. What I don't see is the "Air Control" that supposedly adjusted the temperature in the freezer section. Maybe that's all the "Convertible" control is. Still, I can't imagine needing to store that much fresh meat in the convertible zone (not that meat is all that upper section is intended for). Isn't that a meat drawer under the clear-front crisper anyway?
Personally, I'd want the extra freezer space, so if I were fridge shopping back when this one was new I'd not have considered it. Besides, the price would have been sky high.
Still it's a rare bird, and Coldspots from this period seem to run forever, and quietly at that. My mom's was still purring along at 33 years old when we replaced it with a larger KitchenAid. | ||

Those Coldspots ARE good. This is my 1963….and quiet really sums it up (Until recently….my freezer fan has a helluva squeal going on from a bad bearing). This particular unit has a super cold control on it as well--it maintains flawlessly. Hoping that it will keep on another 55 years!
