No model of any brand of refrigerator sold in the US has a warranty longer than one year.

the new residential units take R410a - it works good till you have a leak (duh), but unlike old R22 - you cannot top up R410a because its a two component refrigerant. - Full evacuation and recharge with fresh R410a is required.
