- 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.)
- Temperature Control Type: Mechanical Dial
- Garage Ready: true (Garage Ready appliances have been tested by the manufacturer to operate within a wider range of external temperatures than the average home environment, such as a garage which can fall below freezing or heat above 100 degrees Fahrenheit. Please refer to the manufacturer's documentation for detailed external operating temperature requirements.)
