Do not turn it all the way up. Read review on why
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Was going to buy a small chest freezer like the one that I had for 10 years. but found this stand up at a unbelievable price. Have had it about a month now. The reason I went with this most of all is the fact it’s a stand up unit and fits in my kitchen beside the fridge . Some complain that it dies shortly after purchase. 2-3 months. But what I noticed is that in the ones with pictures is the owners have turned the dial all the way up. DO NOT do that on a mechanical dial freezer. It will run non stop in that setting. You will burn the motor out on the compressor. I left mine set just where it was on the day I purchased it. Look at my pictures to see where mine is set. And it freezes just fine. It does not need to be set at maximum setting. we had a 24 lbs turkey in it for thanksgiving. And it will hold a 1/4 cow. But that will be the limit on what a 7 cubic foot freezer will hold.

Purchased 3 Upright Freezers, A Great Best Buy!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased my freezer so that I would be able to capture grocery store sales for times that traditionally could have a long/longer shelf life; since the price of food has greatly increased and shows no signs of coming down. Plus my 1st freezer is starting to show signs of gracefully aging. I really do not have the extra space for 2nd freezer! Yes this is my 2nd freezer! However, my family can not eat furniture, so I decided to remove a chair from my home, make some rearranging of other furniture so that I could have a space to place my new 2nd freezer. I love it for another reason and that is because now I can label my shelves and be more organized in where and how to freeze my frozen foods in both freezers. It can be a mess when trying to find a frozen item and you do not know where you placed the item. I will have one row marked for bacon, another row for chicken, another row for beef, etc. I like to be organized, makes my life much easier. As far as the quality of the freezer, I was so afraid to order a freezer because most of the reviews are bad. One of my neighbors ordered an upright freezer and it was delivered up-side-down! Could not believe it! She quickly sent it back in fear of it malfunctioning down the road and she wondered how the delivery men were so careless to hand le and deliver her freezer up-side-down. I must say that when Best Buy delivery men delivered my freezer, I can be a witness to say that they handled it well, delivered it right-side-up. They asked before the delivered it would I like it out of the box or delivered inside the box. Once in my home, they asked where did I want it placed and they placed it exactly where I wanted it to be stationed. There were not dents or scratches on the freezer, no signs of damage at all. I feel worry free about it, although I have it under warranty. How you handle a freezer prior to delivering the freezer is so critical to the life of the freezer. I chose to purchase my freezer at Best Buy because of how it was explained to me how they carefully handle their refrigerators and also I am a Total Tech Member so I feel worry free about the horrible stores that are posted online about the upright freezers and from my visual delivery observations. Today is 7/23/24 and I have now had my new upright freezer for nearly a month now, and I can say that I am very happy with my purchase at Best Buy, so glad I purchased from there. I was able to sit both of my upright freezers next to each other in my kitchen area (just an adjustment of the new freezer sitting some in my dinning room area), Awesome! Also my salesman, was so patient and nice to me during the purchasing process, as I actually ordered three (3) of the upright freezers; one for two (2) of my best friends who paid my back, as all of us were looking to buy an upright freezer at the same time. We are all three (3) happy with our upright freezer purchases. Not one of us have had anything negative to say about our upright freezers, all three (3) are working well. Thanks Best Buy for delivering a great product!

Great freezer
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have loved everything about this freezer so far! Great size so it fits in my home office easily. It also has great spacing between the shelves. The only downside has been that the racks taper a bit in width from the front to the back of them, so things I planned on fitting exactly don’t. It’s not a huge taper, but the front half of the shelf is wider than the back half, so if you’re hoping for something to fit exactly from side to side take that into account. Freezes well, super quiet and works great!

Amazing Value Freezer
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great value for money. It's probably smaller than most people would like, but the price-per-cubic-foot is incredible, especially if you get it on sale and/or an open box unit like we did. The upright form factor is less efficient than a chest freezer, but it's much easier to see and rearrange the contents. The only downsides are relatively minor: the top shelf is so small that it's nearly impractical, and a unit like this designed for dark garages and basements needs an interior light. But overall, it's a fantastic choice.

Better than a chest!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not an energy saver appliance but this upright freezer is great. It's better than a chest because with shelves it's much more organized. I was looking for a chest but because of this whole Covid19 situation, it was hard finding a freezer at all but I'm glad this was the only one I could find. The door can be adjusted to open to the right or left but comes swinging to the right. The picture I shared will give you an idea of the space most of those boxes and bags are pretty big bulk boxes from Sam's Club.

Great Little Upright Freezer
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have to say this is a great little upright freezer. I would have given it 5 stars but since it arrived damaged and its hard to get a hold of the customer service department I just couldn't do it. It's the perfect size for our 2 person family. I originally ordered a chest freezer since I couldn't find an upright that was available. I went on Best Buy website one night just to see and sure enough the upright was available. I cancelled the chest freezer and ordered this immediately. I'm so much happier having an upright. But I'm not happy that it arrived damaged. Best Buy gave me the option to try it out for 15 days....I called prior to the 15 day period and they didn't have one to replace it with. So needless to say I'm still waiting for a replacement but this will work in the meantime. I hope that the replacement isn't damaged. I'm afraid that over time the damage will cause issues with the gasket and it sealing properly. But overall I'm really happy. It is super spacious and it holds a lot of stuff. I would for sure recommend to a friend. The 2 delivery guys were great! Followed the CDC guidelines, sprayed everything down with a cleaner and were super nice.

Pandemic Peace of Mind
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I considered buying a small upright freezer in December of 2019 From another retailer but decided against it because we didn’t have an ideal place for it in our small kitchen. However, by the time we decided we really needed one of these upright freezers In April 2020, every retailer online was sold out of these units. Finding this Insignia 7 cu. foot Upright Freezer at Best Buy made me feel like I’d won the lottery. The price was reasonable and Best Buy delivered it within a couple of weeks which I thought was fast. The unit is sturdy, roomy and comes with glass shelves. I am shocked at how quiet this freezer is and how well we were able to integrate it into our small kitchen. Having this freezer has made me feel more secure about our household food supply right now.

Great Little Freezer
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This Is The Perfect Additional Freezer. I Have Been Wanting an Extra Freezer For The Garage and COVID Helped us purchasing this a little sooner than planned. It's the perfect size for the garage as well, I didn't want a full size freezer because we were limited in space. It's very quiet, holds the temp perfectly, The Door Seals Great. You Actually have to give it a little tug more than normal to open it. We are going to fill it up this weekend. The Price Was Below The Competition, Lots of Great Reviews Now Some Bad, But Not a Deal Breaker. When I Unboxed It It Had a Few Dents on It. One Dent On The Lower Front and The Other Dent On The Upper Back. If I was keeping this Freezer inside the House I would have asked for another one. I'm keeping it in the Garage and it works Great so why not keep it. The box was in perfect condition so I would think it happened before it was originally put in the box. Who Knows. Not a deal breaker for me.

Q: QuestionWe just bought this freezer!:-) Since the freezer is not frost free, how easy is it to keep it free of a lot of ice? How easy to clean it frost free?
Asked by Bootsy.
- A:Answer Maybe twice a year, take out the food and put it into a cooler. Unplug the freezer. Put a pan of boiling water on the bottom, close the door for around 30 minutes to loosen the ice, then open the freezer and most of the ice should be loose enough to wipe it out. Put some old towels on the floor around the front of the freezer to soak up the melted ice DO NOT PICK AT THE ICE WITH ANY SHARP KNIFE OR TOOL TO LOOSEN IT UP. Years ago, I did that once and it punctured the wall of the freezer and it was beyond repair. Just wait for the hot water to melt it.

Q: QuestionIf this is a freezer, why does one of the pictures BB put up here have refrigerator items inside--fruit, milk, mustard, bottled water, etc.? This is a true freezer, right?
Asked by Larry.
- A:Answer I thought the same thing, but it's just to show size and clearance of different items inside the freezer. More for a visual representation than anything else

Q: QuestionI've had this freezer for 5 days now. Its easily the nosiest appliance we have. I think the noise we are hearing is of refrigerant circulating, a gurgling type noise as though the system is sucking air. Its doing it very frequently. Is this normal?
Asked by taraeshaw.
- A:Answer Our freezer is VERY quiet, something must be wrong with your freezer. I just love the amount of space I have.
