Hey Free, I'd have to disagree... couple years ago we bought a brand new Whirlpool "energy star" fridge and a seperate matching freezer. A little more than a year later, the fridge went belly up... could NOT be fixed... Whirlpool discontinued the line and could not replace it. I gotta admit, the company was fair with us... complete refund for both the fridge and freezer. Anyways, my missus likes antiques and had dragged home an old GM round top fridge... got it for free. When the high dollar fridge went out, we just plugged in the old timer... been using it ever since. Electric bill actually went DOWN. Based on our experience, I think the whole "buy new appliances to reduce energy consumption" program is just propaganda to keep people buying new stuff. We have no plans to buy a new fridge... this one is at least 50 years old and will probably last 50 more!
