"Our's won't last at this rate!"
Our Amana was installed 8 years ago and we had no problems the first few years. Then our motor started making noise and it only gets louder and louder as time goes on. Our furnace barely runs in the evening, but it pumps out heat all night long causing us to have $200+ gas bills in the winter. I hate our furnace and I hate the people that keep servicing it, it's a total con!

"AMANA sucks"
Don't buy it, after 5 years of a great furnace, it suddenly has intermittent failures and no one seems to be able to fix the problem, and of course it happened right after the warranty was up. I hate this furnace and wish I could afford to put a new one in my home. I even had an amana engineer at my house to look at it and after spending $268 dollars it wasn't the fix. I'm so ticked off.

"11 Years to First Problem"
Had this 95 installed 10/4/00 by a local Heating & Cooling Contractor (also an Amana Dealer). It has performed flawlessly until the first minor problem today (blower cycles On-Off trying to run in "Fan Only" mode). I've been running the fan in auto low speed 24/7 for the last several years to circulate and HEPA filter the air. It still runs fine in normal fast (heating) mode so it's not completely broken - probably the controller board - I'm still investigating. I've never replaced even the igniter or any other component. Very reliable unit - I'd buy another Amana GUX-X without hesitation.

"The first two years were fine"
The first two years for Amana Air Command 80 were fine after that, there has been a service call every year.

"People need to smarten up"
As you have read by now many people find some sort of issue with the Amana brand and especially with every brand of furnace/ac out there. Some complain that their unit is only 80% efficient and now 96. Well that's because they didn't want to pay up another $2000 for a much better unit and others keep complaining about faulty/noisy ventor motors. Well I hate to tell you but they are all the same that's why most of the replacement parts for all furnaces are interchangeable meaning you can use the same part on 30 different furnace brands. On another note, all these parts are made in China so the made in USA means nothing just that it was assembled in the USA. One must compare a furnace to a car as it does require regular maintenance and money to be re-invested over time as nothing lasts forever. I have installed many Carrier/Payne/Amana/Goodman/Rheem products over the years and just because you pay more money does not mean less repair bills down the road.

"Bad Furnace"
This is the worst piece of junk I have ever owned. Flame Igniter goes out every year, which makes for a nice service call.

"Don't buy"
This unit broke within a week. I have replaced everything but the motor: a coil, squirrel cage, heat pump, condenser, control pad, copper tubes and much more. I bought the so-called top of the line (worst heat and cooling unit ever heard of).

"Don't last"
All you folks happy with your newly installed beware. The workmanship is not good, and the fire tubes begin to leak carbon monoxide. These furnaces are not built to last! Then your dealer says Amana will warranty it but the install will cost you around $1500.00. The install is a 2 hour job at most and to top it all off the replacement furnace has no warranty! I can buy the same furnace on ebay for $600 with a new warranty and a Contractor will instal is for $300. No more Amana Crap for me!!

"Excellent equipment"
Just had my new 3 ton 95% efficient Amana installed yesterday. Compared to my 15 year old Goodman the noise upstairs is negligible. Woke up this morning and the cold spots that used to exist in the house (bedroom are on outside walls) are not noticeable any more. The new Amana puts out much more cubic feet of air than the old one. Ron the Furnace Man (Company business name) from Louisville, Ohio did excellent work and cleaned up after themselves.

"Great Furnace"
I am very happy with my Amana furnace. It appears from these reviews that anyone having problems with their Amana furnace is having them due to the installation not the furnace itself. People need to learn that you get what you pay for and if you pick the cheapest installer that doesn't put a lot of detail in their quotes you get a poor installation and it doesn't matter the brand of furnace as much as the installer. I liked Amana because its manufactured in the USA and because Goodman Manufacturing (that makes Amana furnaces) only makes heating and a/c equipment unlike some other companies that make other products (Carrier makes airplane engines, Whirlpool, Frigidaire) and others make other appliances. I wanted a company that specialized in making heating equipment and that made it in the USA that's why I picked Amana and I am glad I did.
