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

    • Ice Maker: No
    • Garage Ready: true (Garage Ready appliances have been tested by the manufacturer to operate within a wider range of external temperatures than the average home environment, such as a garage which can fall below freezing or heat above 100 degrees Fahrenheit. 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.)

Q: IS THE DOOR REVERSIBLE?

A: Hello Fred, I understand that you left us this question because you were having doubts about this.The door of our 17.0 Cu. Ft. Upright Freezer was not designed to be reversible. We do have a few models that include this option which you can check on our website. We are always here to help you and thanks for your interest in this product. Itzel I. - Insignia Support https://www.insigniaproducts.com/contact-us

Q: How is a freezer also a refrigerator?how does it work

A: On the front of the door, you select whether you want to use it as a refrigerator or freezer. It will automatically give the right temperature for the freezer or refrigerator. I think it’s great.

Q: Is this garage ready?

A: I just got mine delivered yesterday and it is located in the garage. When I asked the salesman at the store, the first guy I talked to told me that it was not best to put it in the garage. When I went back, the salesman who placed my order (who also happened to be a manager in the department) told me that this model was able go in the garage because of some special coiling/insulation that is used on this particular model/brand. The guy that delivered my appliance yesterday told me that I should be good to go, especially since the fridge/freezer is sitting on a concrete platform in the garage (elevated above where our vehicles are resting before going into the house) which will protect it from getting wet.

Q: Can I use this in my garage in central Florida, the garage never gets over 90 degrees

A: Bought one for a daughter in Houston to and one for a daughter in lafayette la...both in their garages. No problems at all.

    Great Freezer!

    This freezer is exactly what we needed in our garage. We have a refrigerator freezer unit in the garage but every winter when the temperatures fall, the freezer unit stops working when the unheated garage temperature drops below a certain point. Then we have to take everything out of the freezer section and try to fit it all in the house refrigerator freezer unit. Then we can’t buy any freezer items since we don’t have the room. We purchased this freezer and when the really cold weather came, we moved all the freezer items to this freezer which is working perfectly! Now we have plenty of room for all our frozen items and can buy more if we want. There’s plenty of room and it all stays frozen, no matter what the temperature is in the garage. The two appliances are next to each other in the garage which makes it very convenient. We are very happy with this freezer!

    Easily accessible freezer

    We bought this upright freezer as a replacement for an old working chest freezer that we kept in a detached garage. The old freezer always iced up and needed frequent defrosting. Finding items in the chest freezer was sometimes frustrating as it seemed whatever we needed had frequently found its way to the bottom of the frozen mess. The new upright has auto defrost and has room for everything we kept in the old freezer. The upright has bottom drawers for smaller items and several shelves that allow for easy viewing of everything in the freezer. The temperature of the upright is adjustable from well below zero in freezer mode or above freezing if we ever find need to use it as a refrigerator.

    Reliable Freezer/refrigerator

    Title: A Versatile and Reliable Freezer for Your Garage: Insignia™ 17 Cu. Ft. Convertible Upright Freezer Review: I recently purchased the Insignia™ 17 Cu. Ft. Garage Ready Convertible Upright Freezer in stainless steel, and I must say it has exceeded my expectations in every way. This freezer is a game-changer for anyone looking to expand their frozen storage space without compromising on performance or convenience. First and foremost, the build quality of this freezer is outstanding. The stainless steel exterior not only looks sleek and modern, but it also ensures durability and longevity. The unit feels solid and well-constructed, giving me confidence that it will withstand the test of time, even in a potentially harsh garage environment. One of the standout features of this freezer is its convertibility. With a simple adjustment, you can switch between freezer and refrigerator modes, providing incredible flexibility to suit your needs. Whether you need extra freezer space for bulk buying or a refrigerator for beverages during a party, this appliance has got you covered. The 17 cubic feet of storage capacity is more than sufficient for most households. The interior is intelligently designed, with adjustable shelves and bins, allowing you to customize the space according to your preferences. The bright LED lighting illuminates the entire freezer, making it easy to locate and access items, even in low-light conditions. What truly sets this freezer apart is its "Garage Ready" feature. It is specifically designed to operate flawlessly in temperatures ranging from 0°F to 110°F (-17.8°C to 43.3°C). This means you can confidently place it in your garage, basement, or any non-climate-controlled area without worrying about compromising its performance or damaging the contents. Speaking of performance, this freezer excels in both cooling and energy efficiency. It quickly reaches and maintains the desired temperature, ensuring your food stays frozen or refrigerated properly. The Energy Star certification is a testament to its energy-saving capabilities, helping you reduce your electricity bills while minimizing your environmental footprint. The noise level of the Insignia™ 17 Cu. Ft. Convertible Upright Freezer is impressively low. The compressor operates quietly, allowing you to place the freezer in a variety of living spaces without causing any disturbance. The user-friendly digital controls and temperature display make it effortless to set and monitor the freezer's settings. In terms of maintenance, the frost-free design eliminates the need for manual defrosting, saving you time and effort. The unit also features a handy door alarm that alerts you if the door is left open, preventing any accidental spoilage of your precious food items. To sum it up, the Insignia™ 17 Cu. Ft. Garage Ready Convertible Upright Freezer in stainless steel is a fantastic addition to any home or garage. Its versatility, robust construction, ample storage space, and efficient performance make it an excellent investment.
