Samsung fridge freezer issues

I can't find a good section to put this in! So here it is!
I have a Samsung FF that's about 5 years old and working perfectly but the freezer drawers are falling apart. The front panel is coming off on all 3 drawers. I tried Gorilla epoxy glue but it didn't work for long- I assume due to the freezing temperature. Replacement drawers are £60 each so £180! I'd be better getting a new freezer, but what a waste. Has anyone managed to solve an issue like this, or have any suggestions? Does any glue hold at minus temperatures?

I've used Sugru for a lot of things, but not my freezer. It's fab and not as expensive as new draws, so maybe worth a go first? Or perhaps contact their customer service to find out how it performs at low temperatures.

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll look into it!

Says it can handle -50 temperatures! It's in my Amazon basket!

I was going to suggest sugru too. You’d need to check what temperature it works at though.

Can you advertise for the drawers in freecycle or something as someone could be chucking their ff out as it’s broken but the drawers are fine?

Also a good suggestion. I'll see how Sugru goes first. Looking forward to trying it- shows how exciting my life is 😂

Thanks both- Sugru has worked beautifully! Just hope it holds!
