My Kenmore (sears) is still keeping everything cold after 15 years, the ice maker died last year and after checking on the repair price ($500) I decided not to put that much in a 15 year old frig. Started looking around and like the LG models and will most likely go that way.
As for the ice maker the feature my wife liked was getting crushed ice dispensed in front and that still works fine, so every couple of weeks I grab a $2 bag of ice to refill it. So as long as it keeps running $35 a year for ice beats shelling out $2K+ for a new unit.
