  • 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.)
    • Adjustable Leveling Legs: true (Legs can be adjusted accordingly to ensure that your appliance sits level, even on uneven ground.)

Q: The Danby website indicates the freezer has rear rollers and front leveling legs. Is it possible for one person to move the freezer easily? When it comes time to defrost, I'll want to move it outside of the garage by myself. Thank you!

A: Hello amya, Thank you for your question. The chest freezer does have 2 rollers in the rear to assist with moving it around. Taking into consideration the overall size of the unit and a weight of 75.62 pounds when empty, you might be able to move it outside of the driveway on your own but two people would make the job much easier.
