Not in the US, but back home I clearly remember moving countless fridges of friends to new apartment.

But true that appliance seems to be attach to the houses here. And correct, smart things are private things because of the nature of their work.

I have a fridge that my grand father used. And I’m not specially young. I love that fridge, simple and frugal in energy.

I suspect the smart fridge and the like will come with incentive from large comglomerate that also sell food.

The « two day delivery » of the smart fridge. I guess a coupon.

Oh well.

Not sure exactly how old that fridge is but I think it’s unlikely that it’s anywhere close to as energy efficient as an equivalent fridge made today would be.

Appliances have made huge strides in energy efficiency in the last 30 years.
