Your refrigerator is probably dying unnecessarily as you read this.  Refrigerators are now way more efficient than 10 years ago.  Thats the good news.  Unfortunately, the more efficient compressors now are on all the time versus intermittently in the older designs, so they consequently are repaired more often

I used to calculate rebates for years. It is a maddening task to be kind as there could be 4-5 rebates with different ending dates.

Back in the day, the side by side was the premium looking refrigerator and then the French door became the new upscale refrigerator.
