joy killing refridgerator

Mine has more effect on my waistline.

My refrigerator is pretty noisy too. If it bugs me too much I just unplug it. It seems even louder during the summer months when the room temperature is a bit higher.

The new refridgerators are noiser than the old ones. As mentioned by Peterd the new LG's are quite quiet.

Some carpet or felt on the wall behind the fridge helps some

What is the deal with unplugging fridges and flipping breakers? The only two fridges I have had in the last couple of decades both had an on/off switch built into the temperature control.

For those who forget to turn the fridge back on maybe some kind of code using a fridge magnet could be used. Put it right next to or under the handle when the fridge is off then move it when the fridge is on.
