Kenmore from Sears and we have had it for over 10 years and yes I love it. I wanted simple, so it has the icemaker and the water dispenser. Hoping it lasts another 10 years.

always Kenmore.
Got a French door top with drawer freezer just because I wanted to be able to put bigger items in. Moved the 'old' Kenmore into the garage where it still handles the over flow. Whirlpool makes Kenmore so you know you're getting quality.

I have a Kenmore from Sears that is 20 years old. Water and ice maker (dispenses cubes or crushed). I'm hoping it lasts another 20 years!

They are all to small in the freezer section so what is the difference?

I had a Kenmore at my old house and only had to have the icemaker/water serviced once.

I really don't know what we have right now.

Sears is the one place where buying the maintenance program is worth it. Which reminds me, I've got to call to have them come out and do the annual cleaning on the dishwasher and fridge and also the dishwasher at the investment property.

Agreed!! I've got 2 refrigerators and 2 deep freezers and if it wasn't for the deep freezers I wouldn't have room to freeze anything!

<<<---Kenmore. My only real complaint is now that everything is computerized, it can be very expensive when something goes wrong AND my BIGGER complaint is that they still don't have a self-cleaning model. smirk

They do have product out that, if you have room, is the ultimate...it's either a fridge OR a freezer...you can put two together with a reverse handle and have a big one of each side-by-side! grin

FINALLY ABOVE the gnat line
I have a Fridgedare that I really like. Simple. Have a separate Upright freeze so I don't really worry about freezer space. For you all who have kenmore - you must live where the repair folks are near by. Ours are all in a different town and VERY inconvenient. After my last experience with SEARS there will be NOTHING purchased from that store.

When my daughter's boyfriend comes over, it is like a self-cleaning model for the refrigerator.

Somewhere in the middle
Have the Samsung, "French" style. It was a Model End Clearance at Lowes, so got a realy good deal on it.

Freezer on bottom, ice maker, Cubed or Crushed ice at teh door, and water. The chest freezer is nice, but I don't feel like I have the room inside the fridge like the good old Kenmore, with freezer on top. More stuff goes in the doors.

For the money, I think the "Old Fasahion" freezer on top is good, and saves you lots of money.

Do a little checking on Consumer Reports - Kenmore's are made by different companies in different model years. Usually good, though!

I have a Whirlpool from Sears. I've been very happy with it.

Whirlpool Gold for me. I bought a Samsung for this new house and I really don't like the water dispenser or the ice dispenser (it always makes a mess on the front of the fridge and floor).

Don't buy anything with blue displays (very hard to read at any distance compared to green, etc)

Thanks everyone....I have an Amana...but it is about 20-25 years old I think....I have an upright freezer. Besides the freezer on any frig is useless because of the size as far as I'm concerned...I'd really like to get the new fancy double door frig, drawer on the bottom, with drawer inside the drawer...but I don't have a spot big enough unless I cut cabinets or breakdown walls...neither of which I'm ready to do..

Thanks for the input....Oh and really the football player...nah, I'll pass....I have enough people eating me out of house and home....

I have a 10 yr old Maytag side by side, basic model with ice/water in the door. Hasn't needed any attention to date, hoping it stays that way!

hanging on by a thread
We bought a GE French door style with the freezer on the bottom two years ago. Right before the one year warranty expired, the condensor on the freezer went out. It was replaced at no charge. A couple of months later, we had to shell out $200 to have the ice maker replaced.

I love the refridgerator part. And I love the freezer on bottom. However, the ice maker does not make very much ice at all. Luckily we have my husbands 25 year old Kenmore in the basement that puts out a lot of ice.
