    It works great, but...

    Works great, just wish the temp control was more precise and had a temp reading on the outside, but I'm sure that would require a better model. It truly does the job, but we're in winter, so we'll see what happens in the summer.

    Overall, it's good value for the price.

    It's not your typical frost-free appliance, so there is no air circulation to keep temperatures even. It's the walls that generate the freezing temp. You will have variations from bottom to top. Found that out by placing zip-locks of homemade chicken broth near the top. Next day still liquid or partially frozen. I move them down a few inches under other items, then they froze right up. Not really a complaint, just a limitation in the design. It does the job.

    GE 5 cubic foot chest freezer

    It's a great little chest freezer. (5 cubic feet) This would be perfect for one person, a small apartment or small space. GE is a very good brand. I did however return this freezer because I ended up needing a 7 cubic foot freezer. I had the chance to use the freezer for 2 weeks until the new one came in. Worked great. Highly recommend it.

    Nice little freezer

    Very quiet. Works well. Was looking for extra freezer to keep in the garage. This fits the bill very well

    Good buy

    Good sized freezer for family of 4. However, we received it with a dent in the front. It didn’t affected its performance so we kept it.

Questions & Answers
  • what's the meaning of Garage Ready and what's the difference with the regular freezers?

    Thank you for reaching out to us! Garage Ready refers to units that are designed to operate at cold temperatures in the winter, and warm temperatures in the summer. A regular freezer will have a harder time operating under extreme temperatures in a non-heated area such as a garage. We hope this helps – Matthew@GEA

  • Does the freezer create noise or vibration? Does any foot support come with it? I have to keep it in my apartment at 2nd floor and I was told by the apartment manager to use something on the bottom to reduce vibration.

    While there are some sounds you can expect from your freezer, we do not anticipate that you will experience any disruptions from this model. It is recommended that you ensure the unit is level and that the legs are planted firmly into the ground.
