When facing significant refrigerator issues, you may wonder whether repair or replacement is more economical. Here's what to consider:
Under 5 years: Repair is typically the most cost-effective option for refrigerators in this age range
5-10 years: Repairs may still be worthwhile, especially for higher-end Maytag models
Over 10 years: Depending on the repair needed, replacement might be more practical for older units
Typical Maytag refrigerator repairs range from $200 to $500, depending on the specific issue and parts required. As a general rule, repair is usually more economical when:
The repair cost is less than 50% of a new refrigerator's price
The problem is isolated to one specific component
The refrigerator is otherwise in good condition
Consider repair when:
Only one specific function is affected
The refrigerator still meets your storage needs
It matches your other kitchen appliances
Consider replacement when:
Multiple systems are failing
Energy efficiency has significantly improved in newer models
You need features not available on your current model

Embarking on the journey to choose a new refrigerator can feel overwhelming with the myriad of options available.
A condenser is a component of HVAC and refrigeration systems, responsible for releasing absorbed heat from the refrigerant into the outside air or a water line, thus facilitating the cooling process.
A compressor is a mechanical device that increases the pressure of a gas by reducing its volume, essential in various systems including refrigerators, air conditioners, and HVAC units for cooling and refrigeration processes.
A dual ice maker is a feature in some refrigerators that includes two separate ice makers: one in the fridge compartment and another in the freezer section. This setup doubles the appliance's ice-making capacity.
A French-door refrigerator features two doors that open side-by-side on the top section for the refrigerator compartment, with a bottom freezer drawer, combining style, efficiency, and easy access to both refrigerated and frozen goods.
