A day after my wife broke her ankle hiking and got the basket ride down the trail from S&R, our LG fridge took a dump. It's still under warranty but in today's world, next day service or even immediate replacement with something else is rare. Found a 18cu foot clearance fridge at the local appliance store with some scratch and dents that got us through a week and a half. LG replaced their notorious compressor and our main unit is back in action.
What brands have you had good luck with in recent times and do you keep a spare around?
I will keep the cheap smaller fridge in the garage for backup from here on out.
