Refrigerators (and wine fridges) can be unplugged and removed. If there is an automatic icemaker, it is easily detached, and the water system can be turned off by a shut-off valve. A seller can shut off the gas valve and remove a gas stove or, in the case of an electric stove, one can simply unplug it. A washer and dryer can be easily unplugged and removed as well. All of these appliances are usually considered personal property.

Some of the fish will even have names.
