Kenmore did have good appliances for years but a great many of them were
made by other manufacturers and marketed under the Kenmore label. But
those days are over and recently Kenmore has been rumored to be either
sold by Sears or simply disappear. Sears itself may not last long
either. I'd suggest a different brand, just to be safe.

Will, not only did we get tired of the lack of freezer space and water
on the floor (or creating a science experiment in the back of the
refrigerator when the 1/4" drain got plugged up with food scraps), but
all the hardware breaking or shelves crashing was a major annoyance...
After the new fridge regs came in about a decade ago, we bought a
Kenmore that had a rating of less than 400 kwhs/year. The last time I
measured it, it took about one kwh/day, which turned out to be about
4/10ths of a kwh more than our sunfrost - a pretty good trade off, I
thought. And then we bought a fairly large Kenmore chest freezer that
took about 9/10ths of a kwh/day to run. We've been quite happy with
them since. I know the market changes regularly and that there are
other brands that may be at least as good for the money at this point,
but I've rarely been disappointed with Kenmore appliances I've bought.
Good luck and happy shopping.

Hello Off-grid Wrenches,
After 10+ years my Wife is finally sick of our Sunfrost RF-12. We'd
like to upgrade to something a little more modern that doesn't leak
water all over the floor when it's humid
For you off-grid installers what's your go to refrigerator
recommendation? I'm going to go through the energy star website but
I thought I'd consult with the experts too. I'd like to find
something that has a form factor similar to the Sunfrost although I
know that's going to be hard to find.
Thanks,
Will White
