The only good reason is having a new/shinny one every 5 years. Tons of reasons for me to choose the 20 years one:

- No carbon waste

- No hassle/time waste to install new one

- Good tech that I truly want in a fridge comes around every 20 years, not 5.

- Fridge seems to be getting bigger and bigger. No decision fatigue in having to choose a decreasing number and best of limited options every 5 years.
