Hi, I have a Bosch KGS3700 Duotronic fridge/freezer, ( has 2 compressors and 2 thermostats.), its 21 yrs old. I'm just asking if anyone could advise: - Its been running fine since 1991, one repair to replace a thermostat. However, over the last couple of years, it seems to be running most of the time, ( either the fridge, or the freezer.) Most times I walk in the kitchen I hear it, though it does turn off at intervals. It doesn't seem overly cold, just normal temperatures. I just think it might be costing more to run these days than it used to. I was thinking of replacing it. Grateful for any suggestions/advice.

Yes, can't fault the reliability ! Thanks for your reply, I think you are probably right. In the meantime, I have vacuumed the coils at the back and 'renovated' the door seal and it seems a bit better.

I got rid of a v old one about a year ago, and my electricity usage dropped by just over 1000 kWh in the year (seen over every month, a consistent drop, summer and winter, starting the week i unplugged it.)
It was costing me more than £100 a year.
