We've been using the SAME Apartment Size Top Freezer (Traditional) Residential Fridge in our Montana since I purchased it used 11 years ago and installed it myself.
40K miles later, including roads so rough the Front frame Broke ($$$ repair), this Frost Free "Fireproof" Fridge cools down to 0 in 45 minutes Fridge has continued to function just fine. Used about 9 months/year.
That said, current Res Fridges are "supposedly" designed to only last 10 years...
