My KitchenAid bottom freezer is now 14 years old. It is still working very
well and, to date, has not needed any kind of repair.

We have other KitchenAid appliances and have been pleased with them. I
wonder if the KitchenAid of today is the same as the KitchenAid of
yesterday. That is, do they still make their own appliances, or are they in
the Amana/Maytag/Whirlpool/LG/Kenmore/Sears/etc camp?

That is a good question. I also have a KitchenAid washer and dryer that
are 15 years old, and both work very well. Who knows how much a company
can change in 15 years? But I am glad you posted about KitchenAid's
bottom freezers, because the last time I looked (a few years back) they had
stopped making them and I was not looking forward to the time when I would
have to replace this one with some other brand.

KA is really Whirlpool..except for the re-branded Amana fridges I guess

May I ask a question, please?

I don't have a bottom freezer 'frig, but whenever mine dies, and I
hope that's a loooong loooong time from now, I would like to have a
bottom model. My question is what is the difference or benefits of a
hinged bottom door vs. a slide out door?

Also, do you pack your items flat or on their side to see what's in
the freezer? That probably sounds like a silly question, but I've
always wanted to know.
