Is it worth fixing the old Amana fridge?

Is it worth fixing an old Amana fridge? That was the question one of our clients asked recently when she called in.

Her Amana fridge is about 15–20 years old, and she was debating whether to throw it away or repair it. This is a very valid question that many homeowners ask themselves when they see ice building up in an older refrigerator.

In this video, we share advice on whether you should buy a new fridge or fix the old one.

In our client’s case, she decided to go ahead and repair the old Amana fridge — and it will pay off. The repair was minor, and the main part of the refrigerator, the compressor, is working just fine.

An old fridge doesn’t automatically mean a bad fridge. So if you notice ice building up and start wondering whether you should fix your old refrigerator, let your appliance repair company check it first.

If the compressor is in good condition, your old Amana fridge may continue working well for another 5–10–15 years.
