Should have purchased a different refrigerator

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This model doesn't provide near enough room for a two person household that loves to cook. The choices available for spacing the shelves makes no sense. The bottom freezer looks big but because of the dividers that cannot be removed, a person has very limited room. For the price paid for this unit, the value is terrible. The only reason I chose this one is because my current unit failed and I needed a new one that day, this happened to be in stock.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like the freezer down below. But the refrigerator door is very difficult to open not good for weak people.
We purchased this refrigerator a few months ago. Size and dimensions were a concern because of existing cabinet configuration. It appears to be solidly constructed compared to others we looked at, but storage capacity in the refirgerator section is lacking. For some strange reason the shelf supports are large and angle downward which restricts containers from being pushed to the back of the shelves and also gets in the way of stacking anything. Insuring shelf strength could have been easily solved by enclosing the glass shelves in metal rather than plastic.The temperature control, which is huge, is front and center when door is opened, obstructing use of the top shelf. This replaced a 25 yr. old top freezer Kitchenaid which was still running like a top. Wanted stainless...have regretted the decision every day since, lol.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Our new Amana bottom-freezer refrigerator has certainly updated the look of our kitchen. It is quiet running, and has easily adjustable shelves, to change space whenever needed. Great Value!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this refrigerator. It has everything I need. I went from a top freezer unit to this bottom freezer unit and now I can see and reach everything so easily – it’s amazing. The Deli & Crisper drawers operate so effortlessly and the half width shelves and door bins can be adjusted to a lot of different positions. Reaching into the freezer bins is actually not as difficult as you might think – especially the top bin. And organizing the bins in a bottom freezer unit is the same as with a top freezer unit. So stop bending over to see, and stretching to reach, everything in your top freezer units’ fresh section - which is accessed about 75% of the time compared to about 25% of the time for the freezer section. Once you have one you’ll wish you had gotten one sooner. I did.
This replaced a 1980's top freezer. First, my electric use per day is 1/2 the units. Second, no twisting , no hidden items - things are all within reach and visible. Regular not LED bulbs but bright I use a walker and the little tilted ledge in refrigerator is perfect to place things while I arrange and sort things. The freezer is a little trickier since I was so excited I over bought and the shelves jammed but I've learned. I use a refrigerator thermometer and it stays ,after some adjusting, at a steady 38 degrees. I don't think the motor runs more than the old machine did but it sounds weird, not a melodic sound . Notice it more because of that. Have had for 6 months.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased this product a few weeks ago. Very pleased with space inside and love the freezer on the bottom.
