Answer 2

4 years

This is a very silly answer. Refrigerators are not particularly high tech. Just a compressor and a sealed circuit for evaporation/cooling.

I am just in the process of replacing a fridge/freezer I bought in 1967-44 years ago.

It has had one service call to replace a finally defective temperature sensor.

I would expect any reasonable brand fridge to last at least 15-20 years.
