    Probably in a similar boat; both my parents, and cousin had early 2010s LG French Door fridges (as they were just becoming popular).

    When it came time for us to buy a new fridge, we followed along and purchased a 2018 model. While both of theirs are still functioning fine to this day - ours had the (now all too common) linear compressor fault in 2023.

    We were fully reimbursed our original purchase price (yay, strong Aussie consumer protections!) and have since bought a Hitachi (Made in Japan) fridge. We’re quite happy with it, though it did cost extra out of pocket - and it’s way too early to be able to qualify for a recommendation.
