Good luck with replacing it. Appliances hardly last that long anymore.

Thanks ! Yeah I know the one that went out is a Kenmore (before they even had garage friendly freezers) that wasn't supposed to be in a garage and made in the USA. I highly doubt this one will be made in the US and like you said hardly last anywhere near that. I had a plumber that told me that they could design a hot water heater that pretty much would last a lifetime but it wouldn't be a good marketing strategy. Companies want to sell hot water heaters.
How did this turn into the freezer thread? lmao
Goodness. I just keep falling for it.
Off topic but still responsive to the thread branch, the door switch on our dryer broke a couple weeks ago. They first thing the repairman said when he walked in was "they don't make them like that any longer". I don't know how old the dryer is, but just a guess I'd say 15 years. This is the first problem we've had with it, and now that I saw him do the repair, I could easily do it myself - one screw at the lint screen opening and two for the switch itself (but I tend to screw things up when I try to fix them myself). Don't know what the part costs, but the total charge was $206.
Ark making last second push?
Lock this one up and throw it away. On to the next.
