My parents had a completely noiseless refrigerator similar to this. It did not have a compressor and had an electric heating element instead. It was very durable and worked for many decades until the plastic and door hinges etc was too damaged for it to be used any more.
I actually found a picture of the exact model from a museum
I looked at bit more and it seems the original article is quite misleading. It seems the Einstein-Szilard refrigerator is a type of absorption fridge and a major reason they did not come to market was a related absorption fridge, the Platen-Munters absorption refrigerator made by Electrolux and Evalet. The Einstein-Szilard refrigerator was not completely unique, but an attempt at improving this design with other gases.
