#Candy fridge freezers are crap.
"While the general lifespan of a fridge freezer is around 10 years, factors like proper maintenance can impact how long it lasts." they say.
We have a thirty year old freezer. The only maintenance it has had is being de-frosted two or three times. It's fine.
My parents had the same fridge for at least forty years, and it was fine. They died before their fridge.
The Candy brothers are billionaires. They sell crap.
I have just told @villebooks that the article she is rabbiting on about came from the i Newspaper (UK) and if she wants she can contact them for verification of it's details.
Than I muted her.
@Walrus I had a Candy tumble dryer which lasted all of six months... once it started smelling like fire it was out the door. It's not only their fridge freezers that are crap.
I have had our freezer for 45 years and it is still working fine.
@Walrus The only thing I remember about Candy is the flying Tyrell they sponsored at the Monaco GP many moons ago
