Buyer's Guide

Not sure if it's time to replace your refrigerator? Check out our top 4 signs to know when it's time for an upgrade.

FOOD SPOILING QUICKLY

If you notice your food starts to smell and/or spoil days before it normally would or, if when you put drinks in the fridge and notice that it’s taking longer than usual to get cold - then it’s probably time to upgrade your appliance.

A fridge that takes longer to cool your food or is unable to maintain the temperature it’s supposed to, is most likely using more energy than it should.

TOO MANY REPAIRS, TOO OFTEN

When a refrigerator has reached the end of its life cycle, one thing goes, so you have it fixed, and then just a few weeks later, something else breaks again. If the appliance continues to need one repair after another, it’s only a matter of time until the entire thing will need to be replaced.

THINGS ARE HEATING UP

The back of a refrigerator should feel warmer than the front because that’s where the motor is located, but if it feels hot to the touch, that can be a sign that it’s malfunctioning.

IT'S TOO SMALL/BIG

Often our appliance needs change as we grow and mature. If the fridge you bought as a bachelor or newlywed is groaning under the weight of all the food now needed to feed your growing family, you’ll need something a little bigger.
