    What you're seeing is fine and edge smoothing is working as intended.

    -Behing the fridge what you see is a shadow created by ambient oclussion, that shadows are not 100% accurate/perfect sometimes, specially if the object is in front of a wall like a fridge.

    -Inside the windows, you don't see an actual 3D mesh but an image and an alpha channel that lets you see those "woods" dividing the glass. Antialising does not work on rasterized images, just on 3D meshes, hence that's why edge smoothing does not work on that part on certain windows.
