ᐅ New refrigerator makes a humming noise – any experiences?

Maybe some of you have experience?

Our newly installed refrigerator is humming. Is this still normal nowadays, or am I too sensitive? Our kitchen is part of a large open-plan space that includes the dining and living areas. I can even hear the refrigerator when I’m in the living area. What can I do? Could it be because of the large open space? My 25-year-old refrigerator in the old apartment didn’t make any noise.

Sure, the compressors are basically the same as they were 30 years ago.

Built-in refrigerator or standalone? Freezer compartment with no-frost?

Built into a kitchen corner, with freezer compartment and 0-degree zone, Gaggenau RT 289 203

Dealer asked?

Could it be the cable? Ours was extremely loud as well. I then removed the cover and repositioned the cable... now it’s fine. You can still hear it when it starts cooling, though.
