    My Mom still has her GE fridge from 1952 in garage running to keep bottled water, cokes, etc cold for the grand and great grandkids...
    I've been told, by folks who are more into the subject than I'll ever be, that the GE Monitor Top refrigerators, like this one...

    ...basically never break down. Supposedly the compressor being on top makes it easier for them to shed heat compared to later models where the mechanism is hidden on the bottom. It seems the most common reasons any of them were taken out of service were fashion (of course) and breakage of parts like the handles, hinges, and legs due to being dropped or other abuse, often when being loaded or unloaded from a truck because the owner was moving. Actual breakdowns of the mechanism were purported to be almost non-existent.

    Anybody here have experience with them that you'd care to share?
