[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Old Amana refrigerator died on me , so I need a new ones , looked for Amana refrigerator , purchased bottom freezer like old ones . Oh I love it . Hope it will last long for a long time .
I had an Amana very similar to this one for 22 years and it still works. Worried it was going to quit on me so bought this one. The only thing I don't like about it is the drawers don't really have a good stop on them so if you pull them out too far they fall right out.
I bought one a little bigger 5 years ago and love it. I moved and it wouldn't fit into my new kitchen so it is in my basement and bought this one just a few inches smaller. It is quiet, stays cold on the #4 setting. Never a problem in all these years. The smaller one I just bought seems as big as the other one. Don't even notice the difference. Freezer on the bottom, you can't beat it. How often are you in a freezer? Mostly you use the refrig, so no more bending to find things.. it's all in easy reach!! I would always recommend the Amana refrig!! It's the best!!!
I wanted a side by side. Unfortunately, after searching for the perfect one that fit in the space a knowledgeable salesperson told me it wouldn't fit and explained why. We tested the theory and he was right! He suggested this freezer and I am very happy with it. I love that the handle can be changed because I need it to open from the left hand side. :) The bottom freezer takes a little getting used to, and it helps to be organized! But I love it.
We like our Amana bottem-freezer model very much. The only issue I have is that the freezer door is difficult to open sliding out. (I have health problems). I think an door opening like the fridge portion might be easier to work with from a walker or wheelchair...otherwise you are always in the way of the opening.
