Amana 21.9 cu. ft. Bottom-Freezer Refrigerator, ABB2224WEB, Black

Just 2 flaws..
I was going to wait a few weeks to review this fridge, but I decided to give a review of my first impressions awhile. I figure this way, if anyone is looking to buy this unit, they will have some more immediate input to look over.

Firstly, the delivery went perfectly smooth. The 2 gentlemen were very polite and professional. They were careful handling the fridge and manuevering it through the house. It was actually fairly quick and very efficient. They called the night before to remind me of the delivery time and then again when they were about a half hour from my house. They offered to remove the old fridge, but we had decided to keep it in the garage to make use of the extra freezer space for now. We have been wanting to buy a chest freezer for down there, but hadn't gotten it yet, so the old fridge will do in the meantime. There was absolutely no damage on the fridge. No dents, bumps or scratches. It looked perfect, and I signed as such on the delivery papers...

OK over all
I've had this refrigerator for 6 years. I had to replace the defrost thermostat about 3 weeks ago...now it appears to have gone bad again. (The refrigerator gets warmer but the freezer still works.)The handle to the freezer is a pain because it comes loose about once a year and even thou I tighten it every time, I still have to get the manual out to try to remember how and even the last repair guy I had out said when he worked on one he couldn't get it either then it just "clicked" and he still doesn't know what he did. It does have good storage room thou which is important when I buy 6 gallons of milk each grocery trip.

Top Notch Bottom Freezer
No more stooping to see what's for dinner unless it's in the freezer. But the freezer has 2 drawers that pull out, so it's easy to see what's in there. To a tall person, this is a well-designed Energy Star appliance. Adjustable glass shelves let you customize the inside of the frig to your liking. There are 2 humidity-controlled crispers and one pull-out dairy/cheese drawer. The door is thick and has a large butter compartment that will hold more than 1 lb. of butter. There is also room in the door for a dozen eggs in their original carton. Iced tea and soda bottles easily fit in the bottom of the door. I prefer the single door model to the French door versions. No exposed coils on the back of the machine to break like my old frig. It quietly operates but does seem to run frequently (of course, that may be due to the record heat this summer). An ice-maker is NOT included, but is an option. I like to make my own ice and 3 standard ice cube trays fit neatly in the top drawer of the...

Before You Buy

Would you like a refrigerator that helps you save money on utility bills?

All Amana bottom-freezer refrigerators are ENERGY STAR qualified and CEE Tier 1 rated by the Consortium for Energy Efficiency to help reduce your monthly utility costs.

What frustrates you about your current frozen food storage?

The bottom-freezer lineup feature two different freezer configurations that both provide easy organization. Pick a freezer door with a shelf and pull-out basket or a pull-out freezer drawer with two levels of basket storage.

What happened the last time something was spilled in your current refrigerator? Did the spill run onto more than one shelf?

Spillsaver glass shelves are designed to make those inevitable accidents a little easier to clean up. Glass shelves with sealed edges help keep spills contained to one shelf.

Do your fruits and vegetables go bad faster than you think they should?

Humidity-controlled Garden Fresh crisper drawers are designed to help keep fruit and veggies fresh for longer.

Key Considerations

Tip #1
Measure the height, width and depth of the refrigerator cutout space in your kitchen as well as any doorways or hallways the refrigerator must fit through.

Tip #2
There are four bolts that secure the refrigerator to the shipping case. Keep these bolts because they are the refrigerator's leveling legs.

Tip #3
Remove tape and glue residue from surfaces before turning on the refrigerator. Rub a small amount of liquid dish soap over the adhesive with your fingers, wipe with warm water and dry.
