Repair or replace?

Defrost, fan, thermostat, seal and relay repairs are good value. A failed compressor or gas leak on a fridge freezer over 10 years old is usually the point to replace.

Know your rights. Under the Consumer Rights Act 2015, appliances must be of satisfactory quality and last a reasonable time. If a fault appears within 6 months of purchase the retailer must prove it wasn’t there at delivery, and you can usually claim for up to 6 years (5 years in Scotland) if a product fails far sooner than it should. Check this before paying for a repair on a young machine.
