    • Freezer Type: Chest (Chest freezers have a lid that lifts from above and open storage space within, helpful for storing bulk items.

    • Convertible To Refrigerator: false
    • Defrost Type: Manual, Manual (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.

    Nice freezer

    Had freezer for a little over a month now. So far, no problems. I really like it. Great to have light on outside to let me know if it's off or not. Perfect size for what I needed it for. I needed an extra freezer to keep food in for my dogs. I make there food up. So when meats and vegetables go on sale I need to stock up til goes on sale again. I always like GE appliances. I would have liked alittle longer cord but no big deal. Overall, great freezer.

    Well designed and nicely operating chest freezer

    The freezer operates beautifully and has taken a meaningful position in our home. The only downside was that when we unboxed it a significant dent in the lid was discovered. Based on the fact that the box showed no damage — my assumption was that the lid was damaged before being boxed making it impossible for someone to not see the damage but it was shipped regardless. After receiving the freezer at a location 120 miles from our home — I was told the only way I could substitute a new one for the damaged one was to drive the 240 mile round-trip in order to replace it. We arrived at a $70 gift card being sent to our home and we kept the damaged freezer — it operates just fine— it just looks like less than exemplary. The customer service representative was very well trained and empathetic.
