  • Features
    • Freezer Type: Chest (Chest freezers have a lid that lifts from above and open storage space within, helpful for storing bulk items. Upright freezers open from the front and provide vertical storage, which helps keep items accessible. Column freezers are similar to upright but are typically built-in to complement existing spaces.)
    • Defrost Type: Manual (Ice build-up can reduce the appliance’s cooling capacity, making it work harder and consume more energy. Defrosting is necessary to maintain its efficiency and each type has its own advantages depending on user needs and preferences. Manual defrost appliances require unplugging to melt ice naturally, but offer more space, lower energy consumption, and lower cost without the internal heating element. Frost-free appliances regulate temperature to prevent ice build-up automatically. Automatic defrost systems use a timer to circulate heat and prevent ice accumulation, while adaptive defrost systems use sensors to determine the optimal times for heat circulation.)

Q: Hello, is this unit garage ready or must it operate in an indoor environment?

A: Hello GarageMan, This model is Garage ready! Freezers are tested to perform in temperatures ranging from 0°F to 110°F (-17°C to 43°C). Regards, Sasha

Q: Does this chest freezer have moving wheels on bottom

A: Hello Rabbit, Yes, this unit comes with 2 rollers at the back of the unit for easy transportation. Regards, Sasha

Q: How often do you need to defrost?

A: Good Morning Marc, thank you for your question. This appliance should be defrosted approximately twice a year or when a 6 mm (1/4 inch) layer of frost has formed. Thank you Anna

Q: Please I want to no if Danby Duf419w has Stabilizer Free Operation?

A: Good Morning Frank, Thank you for your question. This freezer does not have a stabilizer free operation compressor, stabilizers are used where there is frequent voltage, spikes and fluctuations in manual unit needs to be hooked up to 115 volt dedicated 15 amp circuit. Hope this helps. Thank you Anna

Q: My old Hisense freezer chest cannot be plugged into a gcfi outlet. I don’t know why. But it won’t work if it is. It even says not to plug into a gcfi outlet in the manuel. What about this unit?

A: Good Morning, Thank you for your question, Do not connect your appliance to extension cords or together with another appliance in the same wall outlet. Do not splice the power cord. Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third ground prong from the power cord. Do not use extension cords or ungrounded (two prongs) adapters. .Hope this helps Thank you Anna

Q: My outlet in the garage is up high. Can I use an appliance extension cord for it. Thank you

A: Hi, Thank you for your inquiry. For Danby DCF038A2WDB-3 freezer, extension cord is not recommended because it pulls too much current and is continuously cycling on and off. It has to be directly plugged into a wall outlet dedicated solely to that appliance. That way it will not harm the unit and for safety measures too. Thank you. Regards, Jerlyn
