Default Recommended brands of refrigerators?

"Dorian" wrote in message

Pardon me folks, I didn't know how to post and wound up posting my
question in another thread. Thanks Jerry for the response. I've since
broadened my search for refrigerators. Now, in addition to the GE
freezer-on-top, 24.6 cu. ft "Profile Arcata" refrigerator, I am
considering both Maytag and Amana brands. Reading postings in this
group and others I have found Maytag to have generally the best
reviews. I need as much refrigerator capacity as possible; quiet
operation (well insulated) and lower cost are the two additional most
important items. (The fewer bells-and-whistles, the better) The
Maytag and Amana are freezer-on-bottom refrigerators; not my favorite,
but the capacity is good and the price fairly reasonable. Both of
these are 25 cu. ft. with almost 18 cu. ft. of refrigerator space.
Price ranges from a little over $1000 to $1250.00. Thanks, Dorian



Amana makes top-freezer models. Perhaps you should visit their web site.

I've got a bottom freezer model that's fantastic. No ice maker, no water
dispenser, just the basic unit. Unless you go into your freezer more often
than your refrigerator, I'm not sure why you'd want the freezer on top.

Looks like my model's been replaced with a newer one, but this is pretty
close. Notice that it's got a door on the freezer, not a drawer. They make
both versions.
