Since 2012, we are now on refrigerator #5. After the 3rd one I discovered that the neutral line that is on our grid circuit had been laying on the ground for years & the power company knew about it. So, the first 3 were most likely compromised with frequent brown downs. We went thru a LG, a Samsung, and two Kenmore's(one of them was a warranty).
The last Kenmore lasted around 5 years. The repair tech who condemned our older fridge told us that none of them made now are expected to live over 4 years. He also said to buy one with no fancy features, ice maker in freezer-not fridge side(yes they make them) & no thru the door options. So that was what we did.
So a week ago to replace the Kenmore, we bought a scratch and dent GE from Home Desperate. All others had to be ordered, and it was the only one we could take home that day & it was cheapest at $1K.
Personally I think the R600a Freon combined with aluminium coils is just a bad idea....and we are paying for it.
