“75” is kind of a shit high score, with the scale going to 100 and all.
Demonstration of that point: LG is #2 with a score of 74, in spite of the fact that the terrible track record of their big-dollar linear-compressor fridges has made national news.
We might also note that the span of scores here is really small; it’s just 8 points on a scale of 100. How meaningful is all this?
CR’s reports like these are based on CR subscriber surveys. So they’re about consumer experience and sentiment for things bought brand new and generally things bought recently. I wouldn’t expect such a report to say much about lifespan or repair-ability.
I’ve been a CR subscriber forever. I keep thinking I should cancel, though, because I’m not prosperous enough to live the way their target audience apparently lives.
You’ll call me a curmudgeon for sure, but:
