A question for the group...

It use to be commonly stated that if your frig was 10+ years old that a
newer model would be way more efficient.   Is that still true?  I'm asking
because my fridge is 10 years old and still looks brand new.  Are the newer
ones really that much more efficient?

The newer ones currently available might have better insulation, but
the refrigeration technology itself is unchanged.  This 'magnetic'
refrigerator isn't available yet.  I'd stick with what you've already
got.

Age alone wouldn't tell the tale. One can still buy fridges that are
easily 10 times less efficient per cu.ft. than others. To determine if
a fridge is worth upgrading, measure its consumption with a KillaWatt
and then compare to replacement candidates here

My own fridge-freezer is about 10 years old, 22 cu.ft., and 438kWh per
year. Pretty much the same as the best of the newest ones in the same
class.
