You don't say. I checked one of their basic refrigerators ("REFRIGERATOR WITH BOTTOM FREEZER") and the quote came out to $18,499. At that price, I have to wonder, is the increased reliability worth it? For a refrigerator that lasts twice as long, I'd only be willing to pay 50% more compared to a regular refrigerator.

If, for some reason, you lose $10,000/day when a refrigerator fails, yes. (maybe, judging from the marketing materials, because you can't AirBnB your château without a working freezer). In a residential situation, I guess that would be some Imperial caviar or life-saving medicine... worth it to someone out there I suppose
