The Amana Refrigerator

Top Rated Performance

The Amana Refrigerator company has been around for close to 70 years and was founded by George Foerstner in Amana, Iowa. The original buisiness was called Amana Refrigeration and was best known as the first company to build a home upright freezer. They followed that up with one of the first Side by Side refrigerator freezers in 1950.

Most people know Amana for their microwave ovens which were introduced as the Radarange in 1954 for commercial purposes. But, luckily, Amana continued developing high quality refrigerators and refrigerator freezers for the next few decades and today stands as a leader in high quality, affordable, refrigerator products.

Although Amana was acquired by Maytag in 2001, they have now been folded into Whirlpool. The Whirlpool Corporation has been on a buying spree as of late and recently acquired the Maytag brand in 2006. This adds Amana to an already impressive family of refrigerator manufacturers like its parent Maytag, but also strong brands like, KitchenAid, and JennAir.

Amana's mark of quality should remain intact as Whirlpool is certainly a brand that has its own reputation to uphold. In fact, Amana recently had three of its models land at the top of the list for durability, quality and affordability in a leading consumer magazine.

Amana ABB1921DEW Bottom Freezer Refrigerator
	OVERVIEW: The Amana ABB1921DEW Bottom Freezer Mount Refrigerator was recently rated a  Consumer Report's Best Buy.   Unlike most bottom mount freezer refrigerators, this model has a swing out door which we found much more convenient and preferable to the usual bottom pull out drawer. In prior ABB1921DEW models we found that the compressor was too small to adequately refrigerate the entire unit, but we were happily surprised to find that no longer seemed to be the case.   Read the Full Review.

Amana ASD2628HEW Side by Side Refrigerator
	OVERVIEW:  The Amana ASD2628HEW was also rated a Consumer Reports Best Buy. We have to say that this was by far one of the best side by side refrigerator models we have covered in this price range. It has an attractive design, it holds temperature efficiently and effectively and it comes with a wealth of features that make this model a true standout in the Amana line.   Read the Full Review.

Amana AFD2535DEW French Door Bottom Freezer Refrigerator Side by Side Refrigerator
	OVERVIEW:  OVERVIEW: The Amana AFD2535DEW French Door Refrigerator was recently rated a Consumer Reports best buy. We loved the look and features of this particular model. The refrigerator effectively maintained temperature and the features were top notch for the price range. The only two complaints we found were that the handles were made of plastic which we felt deterred from the overall look and feel, and that the ice maker worked a bit slower than desired. But overall, we felt this to be a very strong model for Amana.   Read the Full Review.

Amana Refrigerators At a Glance

Of the various models of Amana refrigerators we tested, we found that across the board every model had a consistency of quality, looks and durability that only GE could come close to matching. In this price range (of about $500-$3,000) Amana is a great buy because depending on the model you purchase, it should last you at least 10-20 years and give you a quality performance throughout its life.

Although not quite as extensive a line as some other brands, one thing we did like about the Amana Refrigerators is the wide variance of available models. From extra large Side by Side refrigerators, to French Door and Top Mount and Bottom Mounted Freezer models, Amana has you covered.

As one of the innovators in the major appliance market, Amana knows that by providing the widest range of product possible, with a distinct level of consistency in performance gives you, the consumer, the best chances of satisfaction with the brand. And Amana delivers.
