Reminding me once again of a blog post - perhaps by Andy S-C (npub1s7q…l55j) - I can never remember - that suggests after a certain period, it's cheaper to replace your fridge than keep it. The theory being it gets more expensive to run the longer you keep it, due to losing pressure, and slack door magnets leaking heat in (or cold out :) ) thus turning the compressor on more often, costing more. I think the general idea was replace every 10 years *hand-wave*. Can't remember.
