I will second this as I recently went through an interesting road of purchasing a new fridge. I looked for good energy efficiency, a long warranty, replacement parts availability, and nothing else fancy. None of the models from the famous brands (Samsung, LG, etc.) had these; instead, they had internet connectivity, an ice/water dispenser, all sorts of nooks and crannies, and (what is currently quite popular) a low price.

I found a bland-looking Liebherr at a discount (still pricey compared to mentioned brands), and I'm happy for now. It looks like reliability and serviceability are considered a premium these days.
