I guess, but vegetables are about like everything else now. I have a hand-me-down, upright freezer that was my mother's. It is at least 30 years old and may be closer to 40. I have repainted it several times over the two decades I have had it. I know it is very inefficient and since it is not frost-free, I have to unload it every year and hose out the interior because of ice accumulation. It has never had a service call in all these years. It is a Kenmore and would have been bought at a Sear's store.
I had my AC guy over last spring to check out my AC units, and told him I was thinking of getting a new upright freezer to replace this dinosaur. He said "Don't do it". According to him, one would be lucky to have a freezer, particularly an upright, go more than a couple of years without service and would be extremely lucky if the unit was still running after ten years. He said the copper coils are all made in, you guessed it, China. He said in his industry, the AC coils are also all made in China and that of ten that he gets in, six are returned as defective. Yes, that's the world we live in but its hardly progress.
