AWSOME VIDEO, I'm a single woman and this was on point!!! just what I needed to see, THANK YOU SO MUCH for showing your step-by-step refrigerator cleaning routine, I will be following these same directions when I clean mine.

[earleyparham]

This was exactly the detail and "how-to" that I needed to see so that I can clean our fridge. Thank you so much.I think I can do this now.

Nicely done. My Whirlpool side-by-side seems to have been designed specifically to make coil cleaning as difficult as possible. These brushes will make it a bit easier. Thanks.

This is the exact how to video I've been looking for, for a very long time. Thanks!

The underside of the fridge literally acts like a magnet for cat and dog fur. I looked at so many videos and everyone was different. This is the best and easiest one. BTW, I just did mine yesterday and will never let it go again. When the motor started running non-stop I knew something was wrong. Works well again. I wish manufacturers would sell or give an inexpensive cleaning kit when someone purchases a fridge because most people don't even know to do this until they run into trouble.

Excellent, informative, no nonsense video. Thanks.

[nelsontaveras]

Awesome video. I will start on mine and put it on my annual check up list of things to do around the house.

Our coils here are AGAINST the flow of pushing a brush literally walled with no left or right accessibility. Very convenient. Hoping to just unscrew them out I suppose. Great thorough video 👍🏻

Thanks for the video… Mine is running non stop and the freezer is frosting up. Hopefully this will fix it. I looked at the coils and they are horrendous…😂 Thankfully my mother in law just moved out… She had the freezer and the refrigerator packed full of crap. I read that can cause a problem as well, without proper circulation. I got the inside cleaned out good the other day. Now I just gotta clean the coils and cross my fingers…😅

Great vid. So many people i talk to don't want to do this small maint. task to keep from having to buy a frig too early.

Just a note - that skinny crevice tool is from the auto detailing package that was part of a special at Home Depot on a Ridgid shop vac. If your vacuum doesn't have one, you can get about 3 ft of 5/8 or 1/2 clear vinyl hose and squish one end into your short crevice tool.

I didn’t think of doing this. Thanks for the video and information !

[abigailvillanueva]

Thank you!! I really needed this info. It was so hard to find info on top mount fridges

Just did this 2 days ago after over a year since last cleaning. Yup going every 6 months now! Great Job 😁👍👍. Rang da bell

[krystalwesley]

Thank you I didn't know this. So simple. We lived in an apartment for 5 years and they never did this.

[normaled]

Thanks so much for posting this. It was a really big help for me. Everything I needed even being completely not mechanical.

[ascensionlady]

This is the best video for cleaning Fridge!

[DaydrmBlvr]

Thank you for taking the time to walk step by step. I have this problem and the same fridge. Getting to work. Thanks again!

My Amana has a cage around the coils so a brush not a vacuum nozzle cannot be inserted between them. I used an electric leaf blower on the lowest setting---it worked extremely well, but is very messy. I then cleaned up the dust in the kitchen. Had the refrigerator coils been designed better they could be cleaned with a brush & a vacuum cleaner. Seems to have been designed to make it very difficult to clean. the manual instructs a 3 month cleaning but no pictures or any details as to how to clean it. Most folks would be clueless.
