$75, uncommon configuration. Probably early/mid '80s. Mouldy looking freezer gasket, but unit supposedly works well:

We had a Whirlpool refrigerator/freezer, bought in 1978, that looked very much like this model and was configured the same way with the same floating "deli" pan. The handles for both compartments were a little different. This was at a period of time when bottom freezer units were rare and the market was beginning to shift back to them. The unit worked well and lasted for 16 years (when they sold the house it was still working), but it was nothing compared to the 1962 GE roll-out that my Mother was hoping to have again. |

I agree with Tom and Greg. The best configuration for a bottom freezer is a drawer.
I'd only consider this fridge for drinks and the occasional overflow items, not a daily driver. I access the freezer on my kitchen fridge way too often to deal with crouching down to get at its contents. The freezer on my non-Frost Guard top-mount GE Combination drinks fridge can go for a week or more at a stretch without being accessed, so this HP would be fine as a replacement if I were in the market. |

This was built by Amana for GE in the mid to late 80's. Great refrigerator, freezer hard to access. |
