Perfect size for refrigerator overflow
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This size freezer is perfect for small family needing some overflow space for the refrigerator. I have had this GE freezer for less than a month but it is working great. It is maintaining the 0 degree temperature that I want. Easy to find the food I need and the two baskets makes it easy to keep small items together.

Great unit for the price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I ordered this because the freezer portion of my refrigerator was not freezing to the proper temperature. Food kept partially defrosting in freezer. This unit was delivered and set up by Best Buy quickly and efficiently. Within 24 hours, the temperature inside was at zero on maximum level which was 30 to 40 degrees cooler than my freezer section previously. I can now safely store meat products without having to worry about excessive defrosting. I used mini crates to organize the food items and unit will easily hold three crates up and three crates across with more room still in front. There is a little shelf on right side and two sliding baskets also included to allow for easy organization. This purchase was well worth the investment.

It's doing what it's suppose to do so far!!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was going to get a cheaper freezer but I am glad I read the reviews before, I had planned to put this freezer in my garage and the cheaper brand had very bad reviews on that set up. I read reviews of this model and people said they had no problems having this freezer in their garage in the middle of the summer, well, it's true, my garage gets over 100 degrees in the summer and this little guy keeps everything frozen to perfection. I am very happy with my purchase. It is very quiet too.

Great Small Chest Freezer
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Ordered this online for home delivery since it is not available in store, I usually like to see items in store then make a decision on whether to purchase. When it arrived it came as described. This was just to supplement my refrigerator freezer which is quite small. Its the perfect size for my family , not too big or too small. Plugged it in and thats all there is to it. It's in the garage so it's not noisy.

What experts are saying
Q: QuestionCan this freezer be kept in the garage in Minnesota?
Asked by Lynsie.
- A:Answer Hi Lynsie-this is Sue from GE Appliances. We are excited to hear of your interest! To obtain efficient operation, a freezer should be installed properly. Place the freezer where the surrounding external temperatures will not exceed 110 degrees F. or fall below 0 degrees F. Position the freezer in a dry, well ventilated room. Do not install it in a closet. Allow for a 3" air clearance on each side, and a 1" air clearance in the rear of the freezer. Thanks for checking with us!

Q: QuestionThe manual says to set the original setting to 4, but there is no 4. where should the dial be pointed to begin the original cooling for the freezer.
Asked by lindajl.
- A:Answer Same question here. No numbers on the dial to use as a guide. If viewed as the face of a clock is 6 o’clock the normal setting?

Q: QuestionHow do you defrost itDo you have to remove all the food and then what??? How often do you have to defrost it?
Asked by FEC.
- A:Answer Most freezers have to be defrosted at this price I am sure. Schedule for defrosting will depend on amount in freezer etc. I have two other frigs with smaller freezers that do require defrosting so between them and coolers we will defrost when it's less full.

Q: QuestionFreezing levelWhat's the best setting for normal freezing (not deep freezing)? There is a dial on the bottom, and the instruction manual was not specific about what setting was ideal. I currently have it in the middle.
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer Hello - this is Nancy at GE Appliances and I am happy to help you. The correct operating temperature of chest freezers is -5 to +5 degrees Fahrenheit. We recommend keeping the freezer temperature control in the middle unless you want your food more or less frozen. If you wish to take the temperature of the solid food inside the freezer, then place a candy bulb thermometer capable of reading temperatures below zero degrees between frozen packages or in some ice cream. I hope this helps! Thanks for checking with us!
