Food replicator and special fridge disappeared.

I was rebuilding my dynasties house to make my game run faster. Before I demolished it, I put everything I wanted in my family inventory. This included the special fridge from becoming a Celebrated 5-Star Chef and the food replicator.

Last night, when I had finished doing all I could for the day, I saved quit the game. At this point both the replicator and the fridge were in my inventory.

Today when I opened my game file, I didn't look in the inventory until I had played for about 1.5 hours. When I went to put the fridge and replicator in my house, neither of them were in the family inventory.

I was wondering if there's a chance that they could be somewhere else?
If not, do you have to redo the entire culinary career to obtain the fridge again?

Oh, Alexandria, how awful to lose that special fridge!  Maybe someone else will have a suggestion on where to look - I wish I had - but the only positive thing I can think of is that if your chef quits and starts over, they shouldn't have to start right at the bottom again.  I think they should start at about level 5, so at least it won't take quite as long to get another fridge.

Well, it's a Dynasty but I think it's unfair when the game does that. If you want, have testingcheatsenabled true on, shift+click the mailbox and set career, culinary, five star chef and voila there the fridge is! I know, I'm a die-hard cheater  but in the instance, it's fair to fix a game glitch right? Ok maybe not, your decision lol.

I say check your family inventory again later.  If you want to try Esther's cheat, be sure to let Metro know about it on the Immortal Dynasty Thread before you do it.

I had the same thing happen with the special axe you get in china. It made me start a new game (now I know I can get it back if it happens again).

For some reason, I didn't see these replies until now.
They never re-appeared.

I didn't use testingcheats because it's my Dynasty game. I just sent Orion back to the culinary career. He had the workaholic trait, so I just had him sit on the computer "working from home" for a few days. He's almost at level 10, so I'm hoping to get the fridge back soon.
As for the replicator, I don't quite need it yet, so I'll just keep saving LTH points for it.
