As important as the noise a fridge generates, is the amount of TIME it runs.
In addition to the db rating you should find a sticker which lists 'cost'. Well, since I live in an expensive electrical place and my brother lives in a cheap state, that is meaningless. What you really want is the KWH of the new unit. Do the math
My 20year old GE was not only fairly loud, but it ran 20 hours a day. The new Maytag is a larger fridge, French door with bottom freezer and NO thru door anything. I don't even have the ice maker hooked up. It runs MUCH less and is also much quieter.
Now, if it'll last the 20 years of the old one, I'll be way happy.
I think the same line that makes my Maytag also makes Whirlpool...is this correct?
Too much is never enough
