Cold. Very cold.

Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5This freezer works great and is pretty darned quiet. We've lost power a few times and the alert light has worked properly every time. Power has not stayed off very long so I can't say how long it will stay cold. I am very happy with this purchase.

The freezer arrived damaged.
|Posted .Features
Quality3 out of 5Value3 out of 5Ease of Use3 out of 5The grill over the compressor was badly bent and damaged when the delivery guys took the freezer out of its box. I was concerned that the damage to the grill would also mean damage to the compressor. Since the freezer was a gift and we had been waiting for a couple of months for it to arrive, I didn't tell the delivery guys to put it back on the truck and take it away, as I normally would have. They straightened the grill as best they could. The freezer is very nice but not crazy about the bent grill.

Great size definitely measure your space
|Posted .Pros mentioned:Baskets, SizeI would recommend this to a friendGreat size and a lot of depth for storing. Love the 4 baskets. I have 2 on the top level and 2 on the 2nd level with room for storage on the bottom. Only drawback is the freezer does not have adjustable feet which made my incredibly unlevel garage floor challenging. The delivery guys helped to rig up some spacers so the freezer would be level.

Q: QuestionAbout how many pounds of meat can this unit store?
Asked by Hunter.

In general, a freezer will hold 30 to 35 pounds per cubic foot (15.7 cu.ft. = 471-549 lbs.) We hope this is helpful. Keep in touch at GEAppliances.com. Sue

Q: QuestionThe freezer details list installation included with delivery. But then it says it's a Special Order item and won't be installed. So which is it? Will the delivery include bringing it into the kitchen or only to the outside? Important to know!
Asked by RP.
- A:Answer Delivery guys put it in my garage, plugged it in and then helped me to level it since my floor was uneven. Not sure if that was in their job description but it might have helped since my dad was trying to work it and he's a senior citizen. You can always ask but the only installation outside of placing it inside is to plug it in and turn the freezer temperature at the bottom to the temperature you want.
