Integrated columns like the K1801Vi carry a full cabinet door on their own hinges, and that weight is the thing that quietly ends gaskets. A twenty-year-old column with a warm upper section is usually telling you about its evaporator fan; a column with water pooling in the base is telling you about a frozen defrost drain. Neither is unusual at this age and both are well-defined repairs on a cabinet that is otherwise built to last.
