At the risk of tempting fate, our Bosch frost-free fridge freezer
bought in 1994 is still tootling along, and I've never missed the
hassle of defrosting the freezer.

The only problem we've had with it is that two of the plastic handles
on the freezer drawers snapped a few years ago. I haven't replaced
them because the quoted cost of two piddling bits of plastic was
outrageous.
