Downsizing, To Move or Not to Move? That is the Question

I was fortunate to find exactly the refrigerator I was seeking - it's predeccessor has lasted 25 years with a small repair, I realize I won't see that again, but this one still has an excellent reputation. In addition it is US made and parts are readily available - the dealer is 1 mile from me and his own technicians do the repairs if it is something my handy husband or son-in-law don't want to tackle. For now, we are turning the old one on and off at 2 hour intervals so it doesn't freeze everything solid!

@sueinmn Would you mind mentioning the brand? I try to buy "made in the US" but sometimes it seems impossible. I am pretty sure that the freezer we bought earlier this year was not made here. I didn't think any were now!

Hi @sueinmn.......just untying the string around my finger to remind me to mention the warranty. Take a look at the motherboard and electronic/computer gear that is in the back. Just like vehicles, that stuff is the first to need repair. The mechanical parts seem to last forever. From one who learned the hard way.

Buy a timer that you see on lights you can set it and forget it

Fortunate that you have a reliable dealer nearby and your refrigerator is made in the U.S. so parts are easier to get. Good things to consider when buying products
