Amana - 30 in. Wide 18.5 cu. ft. Bottom-Freezer Refrigerator - Black

We bought this to replace a similar fridge that had finally died. Our space is narrow (hard to find replacements), and this fridge has good capacity for 30" wide. We are happy we could order it without an icemaker, since we can't hook that up, and the fridge/freezer capacity is very big compared to the old fridge, even though they look identical. It is a little noisy at certain times in its cycle, but all in all because of our size/placement limitations (30" wide) we are happy with the purchase.

Once in place, we had to make modifications because whatever we did it would still move the minute you grabbed the handle. Also, the shelves are really hard to move and stick terribly. There are no ice makers in these units and we weren't informed of this. Ice makers are an option that you have to purchase separately and we had made three trips back and forth to the store to finally get the correct items. All the people that waited on us were very kind and polite but every one of them had a different answer and plan. None of which worked. On a positive note, most people go with Stainless Steal but in our kitchen the black looks sleek.

There is not a lot of selection in the 30" or less width, so I was happy to find this fridge with a bottom freezer.. I wanted a French door style, but it just wouldn't work with the space I have. I like the freezer set-up. It is easy to see what you have in there. The fridge seems a bit smaller than my old one, but I just need to be more creative with how I arrange things.

I love the bottom freezer location as one goes in the refrigerator part more than the freezer. Thus not as much bending over. very quiet also
