Anyone know of any refrigerators today that are as durable as older ones and have today's efficiencies, but without the smart features and other junk?
Average refrigerator today still lasts 13 years though, and while they're made cheaply they also are cheaper (at least as a portion percentage of the average paycheck).

Sub Zero, Thermador... High end refrigerators, just look at the price, we decided to forget the idea because of that.
