Get a new fridge.
Plug it in and listen to the soft hum as it comes to life.
Suddenly a low inconsistent scratching/sucking/rattling noise begins.
It just keeps going and it starts working on my nerve. Manual says that it could be the gasses and is normal. Usually settles. Fridge is leveled.
Been 3 days now and is driving me insane. Can hear it throughout the entire apartment. People tell me it's so quiet, but it works on my nerves like listening to a dripping tap.

Didn't think something so inconsequential would annoy me so much. Do I cut my losses and just return it or wait it out and see if it eventually goes away?
>>
After 3 days i wouldn't wait for it to disappear. Do you have any warranty anon?

Check the freezer drawers and see if something is loose, I had a terribly noisy fridge until I shifted the cold packs I had in the freezer around.

get a white noise generator, make your own, and/or get a mic and speaker setup near there and cancel out that noise.

3 days seems too long. Id return it.

Did you plug it in immediately after you came home? You are supposed to wait at least a couple of hours, a day would be better. This makes sure the gas/liquid balance is in order so you won't fuck up your fridge. But if everyone else thinks it is very quiet, I suggest you fix yourself instead of the fridge.

If it hasn't changed in 48 hours, it's not going to get better. Sounds like a compressor issue, from what you say.

An annoying inconsistent noise is still annoying no matter what the volume.
-Dripping taps
-Squeaking doors
-Rodents gnawing at the infrastructure
-Appliances rattling
-Odd noises in cars

They all haven driven people to drastic measures and it's not uncommon to investigate such noises as it could be a tell tale sign of a problem waiting to happen.
