Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.My freezer took over 48 hours. I think it takes longer in the summer months. I was about to call customer service after waiting 2 days and woke up the next morning and it was ice cold.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yeah we bought one, had it delivered and the freezer and middle drawer zone still wasn’t functioning 5 hours later. The lighted control went out within seconds of applying power. Plugged and unplugged several times didn’t alter it. I asked that it be picked up without replacement and my account credited. Hearing more and more stories similar to this from others. Seems to be systemic so will be holding off buying a Samsung until I’m comfortable that they’ve fixed the issue. Very disappointed.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Did you check the temperature setting inside? It shows the current temp, but also shows what it is set at. If you hold the bottom (door alarm) button for 3 seconds, it unlocks. Push the fridge temp and see if the setting is different than the actual temp. Same for freezer. However, that setting doesn't even seem within the range, and mine was at temp within a few hours.
