Amana ACD2238HTS Side by Side Refrigerator Review

21.6 cu. ft. Side-By-Side Counter Depth Refrigerator - Stainless Steel Finish

Overall: The Amana ACD2238HTS Side by Side Refrigerator, with 21.6 cu. ft. of storage space, and is popular with most consumers.

We definitely had a lot to love about this particular Amana side by side refrigerator as well.

You're not going to be able to get much more than this if you're looking for a stainless steel fridge in this price range.


PROS: There were definitely a few things really thought were special about this fridge:

Amana ACD2238HTS Side by Side Refrigerator
  • We loved the 5-button electronic FrontFill™ dispenser which easily fills tall containers with filtered water, ice - or both at the same time.

  • The Child Lock prevents kids from playing with water dispenser which comes in handy if you have young children (or annoying husbands).

  • The Auto Night Light means no icy surprises in the middle of th enight.


  • Unlike similar models, this unit has a Filter Status Indicator which tells you when it's time for a change. Seems like it should be standard, but you'd be surprised how many refrigerator models don't add this handy feature.

  • We were also big fans of the Temperature-controlled Dual Drawer which keeps deli meats and cheeses cold and fresh.  It also helped to keep the cheese and meat odors away from other foods in the fridge.

    CONS: There's not a lot to complain about on this particular fridge. We did notice however that the crushed ice feature on the icemaker was a bit slow to deliver.

  • Additionally, it would be nice if the stainless steel panels wrapped around the sides instead of using black. Either way it's still an attractive fridge.

  • One consumer complained that the temperature setting is a bit sensitive and that if items are placed too closely to the fridge's air flow system, they can freeze. 

  • MSRP: $2,400.00 was the recommended sales price but this model has been discontinued. Take a look at a few of the current models like this below.
