                    Only lasted 2 yrs, easy fix but would not trust without a monitor.
                    I bought this freezer around 2 yrs ago and it has worked as expected until this week. Always kept inside in a clean finished basement. Freezer stopped cooling and compressor was hot to the touch. Lost around $400 worth of food due to spoilage. Turns out I pulled the PTC relay of the compressor and found it was reading ~200 ohms when it should be ~4. I was able to purchase one for $10 and freezer compressor works again. I would expect a chest freezer to last longer than 2 years so that is disappointing but glad it was an easy/cheap repair. Now I have a freezer temperature monitor and alarm placed inside for the next time!

                      DEAD after only 804 days!
                      Purchased on 12/11/23 for $199.40. WE THOUGHT it was a great freezer that was just the right size and capacity for us with good organization with the divided space for items, and the light for visibility. It also did not raise our electric bill in any appreciable way. But the week of 2/22/26 the freezer died we think on the night of the 22nd in fact. So that means the freezer worked for 2 years 2 months and 11 days. To add insult to injury this happened the week that our infant son that was 5 days old at the time was transferred to the NICU at the children’s hospital 1 hour and 45 minutes away from our home. We did not discover the freezer was dead till later in the week and the about $1000 of freezer meals we had prepared for when we came home from the hospital had thawed and gone bad as the temperature rose over freezing to room temperature. I would NOT recommend this freezer to anyone. Not will I ever buy a cheap freezer again as buying a budget freezer wound up costing us far far more in the long run.

                        This product came with seven signs of damage.The bottom was completely dented, as though it had been dropped on boards.And stacking at the store or shipping, there was a dent on the side and a dent on the lid.There were separations inside of the freezer itself that had I poured water in would have spilled all over the floor I have pictures of all of this Called the return and was told, leave it on the front porch.They'll come pick it up when they came to pick it up.And saw it on the front porch, they rang the doorbell and the one answered and they left.I called and made arrangements for them to come back.The next day and I was told and bring it in the house, and they would ring the doorbell and come get it from me.I saw a trep dry past.My house.Slow down back up and leave.I called immediately.The truck came back.They were told it would be sitting on the front porch.You guys need to tell one hand what the other hand is doing.This is very frustrating for customers.

                        Can’t say if it works. Do not have it delivered. There were dents all over it. Return was relatively easy. If you decide to deliver it make sure you unpack carefully saving the box in case you need to return it.

                        Didn't last
                        18 months. That is how long this freezer lasted. The warranty is 12 months. Nothing unusual, just frozen food, and kept inside my dining room. Kept it 6 inches away from the wall on all sides, defrosted it at 6 and 12 months. Planned on defrosting it today, woke up and my food was thawed. DO NOT BUY.
