Default Why did back coil refrigerators vanish?

Actually I have an old Kenmore non defrost with coils on the back and they are
not that deep so you can clean them and still get them close enough to the
wall! They do not get dirty as the ones under which are impossible to clean
from that front guard. You actually have to open the back panel and clean that
way but still they are dirty and greasy. The only true way to clean them is to
have someone tilt them back on a hand truck and you vacuum and wash them that
way .First one side and then the other. There can be frost free with coils on
the back and they are absolutely more quiet as there is no need for a fan to
cause the air flow needed for evaporation. IN a WORD they SUCK!
