Pardon me folks, I didn't know how to post and wound up posting my
question in another thread. Thanks Jerry for the response. I've since
broadened my search for refrigerators. Now, in addition to the GE
freezer-on-top, 24.6 cu. ft "Profile Arcata" refrigerator, I am
considering both Maytag and Amana brands. Reading postings in this
group and others I have found Maytag to have generally the best
reviews. I need as much refrigerator capacity as possible; quiet
operation (well insulated) and lower cost are the two additional most
important items. (The fewer bells-and-whistles, the better) The
Maytag and Amana are freezer-on-bottom refrigerators; not my favorite,
but the capacity is good and the price fairly reasonable. Both of
these are 25 cu. ft. with almost 18 cu. ft. of refrigerator space.
Price ranges from a little over $1000 to $1250.00. Thanks, Dorian


I am looking for a top freezer refrigerator with the maximum capacity
for the refrigerator at the lowest cost. I don't need any of the
bells-and-whistles which seem to come, inevitably, with the larger
sized, better quality refrigerators. The largest refrigerator I would
find with the conventional top freezer style is the GE Profile Arctica
refrigerator with a capacity of 24.6 Cu. Ft.
It is model number: PTS25LHSWW. However, in reading posts to this
group about GE refrigerators I have seen a lot of criticism of the
quality of GE products. Does anyone know anything about this model?
Or are all GE refrigerators of poor quality these days? And if so,
what company, if any, has well made refrigerators? Thank you for your
help. Dorian

Don't know much about top-freezer models. We just bought a GE Profile
side-by-side to replace a _6 year old_ Amana that died on Thanksgiving
day, compressor. I'm kinda down on Amanas right now. Prior to the
compressor failure, we had lost the auger motor, and we were on the 4th

icemaker unit. Meanwhile the 20-some year old GE in the garage just
keeps chugging along, one of the reasons we decided to go with a GE to
replace the Amana.

        I have a Maytag side by side, and would never own another. It
has required service about 6 times in 6 years. The Sears repair guy
says that, of all the brands they service, Maytag is the worst.

        FWIW, I owned a Sears Coldspot prior to the Maytag; and it did
not require a single service call in 25 years.

Kitchen Aid, Whirlpool are a couple of the best. GE is mid range. Amana
used to be, but I'm not so sure today.
