    • Convertible To Refrigerator: false
    • Ice Maker: Optional

Please refer to the manufacturer's documentation for detailed external operating temperature requirements.​)
    • Defrost Type: Automatic (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.)

    Working great so far

    The freezer is working great so far and can hold plenty of food (see picture) Buying in bulk saves a lot of money so this is the perfect freezer for those who need some extra space. The only reason I am giving four stars instead of 5 is the bottom of the freezer has a plastic plate for holding in the food; which is fine but I wish it was either a drawer or something more solid. If the plate on the bottom were to break the bottom of the freezer would become worthless, although it feels relatively strong. If I had to buy a freezer again I would have still purchased this freezer even with the minor flaw with the plate on the bottom.

    My new love

    Just in love with it. After having a chest freezer ( the same one) for more than 20 years this is a game changer. Runs well. Not too noisy or clunky. Even though I have no small children around I love the lock feature. The only thing I wish is that it came with an additional shelf. So far I’m very pleased.
