I have little faith in new refrigerators lasting 9 years. I am an appliance technician but I'm not refrigeration. Our fridge techs often replace 4 compressors a day in their routes. It's generally not cost effective if you're paying for it out of pocket. After a few years the warranties don't pay for labor on sealed systems, even if parts are covered.

The very basic fridges still seem to be fine, but most people will not touch those given the lack of creature comforts or designs.
