Lifespan
NAHB's Study of Life Expectancy of Home Components does not publish a figure for freezers, so no lifetime cost is shown here rather than a guessed one. The annual and monthly figures above stand on their own.
Is it worth replacing?
The Hisense HUF210N6AE runs above its category average. If the freezer you actually own is older still, likely well past ENERGY STAR's efficiency baseline when it was made, a current certified model could cost meaningfully less than this model's $93/year every year.

Protecting what you have
A freezer like the Hisense HUF210N6AE is a real household expense whether or not it needs replacing yet; a protection plan is one way to budget for a repair rather than a full replacement.
