Broken Fridge....asking landlord for rent deduction

[ua1176]

hi OOT,

i rent an apartment. my refrigerator broke on Tuesday June 19. my landlord is a great guy in general and was totally on the ball and had an independent repairman there 24 hours later.

the repair dude says the compressor is broken. my landlord calls sears about getting a new compressor (fridge is only like a year old and still under warranty). Sears tells my landlord they can't come until the 29th. my landlord bitches at them but to no avail.

Sears dude comes on the 29th. without the compressor. apparently he needs to see for himself that there's actually a broken compressor. god forbid he trust the word of the repair guy.

Sears guy orders a compressor. it comes in a few days. Sears now says they can't come fix it until July 9. my landlord bitches at them more, but again to no avail.

so what sort of financial compensation am i entitled to here for having been fridge-less from June 19-July 9?
