    • 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.)

    This is a great upright freezer. From the size, to the “no-frost”, the adjustable shelves, the slide-out wire baskets, the covered compartments on the door, the pizza compartment at the bottom of the door, the roller wheels, the leveling legs, energy efficiency and it’s lockable. It’s perfect!!!

    New freezer purchase

    The Whirlpool - 19.6 Cu. Ft. Frost-Free Upright Freezer has been in service for a few months now, and we are pleased with its performance so far. It was on sale when we bought it, and the price was as reasonable as we had found. And we did look around. We are happy with our purchase and overall, we give it four stars. We don’t give five stars often. Here is how we rate items. 5 Stars = Exceeds all expectations, a great buy! (Very Rare) 4 Stars = Excellent find, and the price is okay. You should give it a try. 3 Stars = Works as advertised, and the price is fair. 2 Stars = A little sketchy, but possibly OK, and it may work out. 1 Star = Avoid this product, not worth it.
