Can it open from the left
Asked by Lulu February 8, 20202
AnswersMine opens on the right. There are bolt recepticals on the left top and bottom for a left opening door. I would assume you would need to order it that way since it makes no sense installing a right gand door on the left hinge hardware, else the door would be upaide down.

I have had this freezer approximately 3 weeks and I like it.
Pros:
Good cooling (airflow)
Lots of storage space, shelves and in the door
Expensive (but at least I got a freezer), everybody else was buying the cheap crap
Cons:
Expensive, (I didn't really care about having Stainless Steel)
Very light when empty opening the door made the freezer slide towards me, had to add shims to level it
once you get it packed with food that is not a problem though.
Great fectures

Class Action Lawsuit For This Product Under Investigation!!!
November 8, 2020
If you currently have this product, see the following website to be a part of the class action lawsuit: https://chimicles.com/whirlpool-sidekicks-refrigerator-class-action-lawsuit-investigation/
If you look at all the reviews, the 5-star reviews are all from promotion, meaning that the consumer was being compensated for their review. If you look at all the 1-star reviews, you will see that this product is a nightmare and should be avoided at all costs.
Unfortunately, for those who've already invested in this product, there is not a size replacement from competitors, or else everyone would get rid of these units. To further complicate the problem, many of these side kick units are a matching pair, with a refrigerator on one side and a freezer on the other side.
Stay away!!!!

Nice size, looks great with the matching refrigerator.
Below expectation
August 8, 2020
Customer review from homedepot.ca
The specs on the website don't indicate how much room is required for door swing beside the unit - it can not be put up flush in an alcove. Also, the door is identical to the fridge - it is a nice fridge layout but very poor as a freezer door. For this amount of money($1500.00) I expected a freezer door in the freezer!
