Weighing a replacement
The LG LRFLC2706* runs above its category average. If the refrigerator 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 $119/year every year.
Worth comparing a few current certified models before deciding.
If you're keeping it
At $119/year just to run, a refrigerator is worth protecting against an unplanned repair bill on top of that.
