Q: QuestionIs this freezer frost free ?

Asked 4 months ago by 5678.

• A:Answer I do not think so; it only draws approx. 200 watts when running, & has a drain hole: hallmarks of a manual defrost. I run manual freezers on a manual (pin)timer, 12 hrs on, 12 hrs off. It allows rock-hard freezer foods, but is off enuf to control ice buildup; I haven’t had to defrost our freezer in about 7 years—& it saves a chunk of change off utility bills.

Q: QuestionThere is a hole under the drawer that seems to be for the manual defrost. Where does it drain?

Asked 3 months ago by ASte.

• A:Answer Check underneath from the front, or look at back, for a tray that should be under that drain hole. Old tech, I’ve had to substitute old baking pans, & once even just formed aluminum foil pan. Drips usually dry in place. Some drains have tubing to direct drainage to drip pan off to one side under the box.

Q: QuestionWhat are the inside dimensions. Need to know if a 13X18 sheet pan will fit on the shelf.

Asked 1 month ago by P3.

• A:Answer Hello, the shelf measures 17 inches Width ,16.5 inches depth, so a 13 inches × 18 inches sheet pan will not fit flat inside the unit. A standard 13 × 18 inches sheet pan requires at least 18 inches of internal width or depth to lay flat. It may fit at an angle, but it cannot be placed level on the shelf.
