Interesting discussion. I’m understanding major appliances (generally) are improving in terms of energy efficiency, so advice is to replace if over 7 years old. I’ve used incentives from electric utilities to recycle old operating refrigerators.

Very mixed feelings about subscription model to get long term durability. Kind of like buying an extended warranty (full of fine print weasel words).

Rather a user feedback loop. Each time you can decide to scrap the deal or not. Unlike now where we have no feedback loop to incentivize producers.
