FWIW we have had an Amana bottom freezer unit for over 5 years without a
single problem.

Remove the crap from my email address before using.

A recent post regarding problems with a defective Thermador oven leads
me to ask about Amana.

We have had two, high-end Amana refrigerator-freezers and both have
been maintenance nightmares. One was replaced completely by Amana
after the freezer liner split open!

We've been plagued by compressor problems, electrical problems,
icemaker problems water-dispenser problems and problems with service
personnel who were simply incompetent!

Maytag (actually Maycor) recently purchased Amana and I can guarantte
you that the Matag repairman is running his ass of!

Has anyone had similar Maytag problems? Have you obtained any relief
from those huge repair bills?

I have had an Amana (freezer on top) for about 3 years without a problem.
Everything works. Only bad thing is we don't use the ice fast enough and
sometimes it's kind of nasty, so every now and then I dump the ice and let
it start over.

I had one for about 7 years and the compressor went bad. I wasn't very
happy. I'm not sure I'm going to buy another Amana.

My Amana side by side still is great with no problems after 9 years. Just the
luck of the draw in some cases.

We've had an Amana side by side for nearly 5 years and no probs (yet).
