Should I repair my refrigerator or buy a new one?

pam asked:


I had noticed the freezer part of my refrigerator thawing last week and could hear occaisionally something like a fan sputtering from the back. Yesterday the bottom part started getting warm, and now the freezer is the refrigerator. The machine is 17 years old (Kenmore). Should I call a repairman or get a new one?

My refrigerator runs constantly. Probably the thermostat is out, but I can’t get an answer from anyone about repair. Any sugestions?

I called an appliance repair man out to fix my fridge (wasn’t staying cold anymore) and after he got a part to the compressor repaired and the refrigerator hooked back up and getting cold again i realized the next morning the icemaker was no longer making ice as abundantly as it had before…wasn’t making ANY at ALL in fact.
And yes – it is ON (lever down) and there IS water coming out the dispenser in the door. Was it possibly something the repair man could have done or could it be something else altogether? and if so – what?
both the fridge and the freezer are up and running. everything is cold as it should be. if it’s the filter on the water line – HOW do you clean it?

I have a four-year old Frigidaire refrigerator with a broken water dispenser. I have the replacement part but do not know how to get to the part to replace it. Can anyone help me with this?

I have a Magic Chef refrigerator, it is about 15 cubic feet, from what I have learned, it seems that the frost system is defective.

can anyone tell me how much that will cost to repair it? they will charge me $65 just to come and look at it.

thanks
