Suddenly stops working
|Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.[Employee of bestbuy] We have bought this model twice. The first one stopped working at the 5 years mark. The most recent one died within a year. We opened it to find everything completely defrosted.

Died after 2 years
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Died after 2 years. I bought this at the start of the pandemic and when it actually worked it was great. However, after 2 years it suddenly started to fail intermittently and caused spoiling of food.

Nice for price and availability
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very happy with purchase. Was happy with curb pickup and loading of appliance.
I would recommend this to a friendUnreliable product, meaningless warranty
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this full-size freezer in March 2024. It works for a while, and then without warning defrosts completely and all the food is spoiled. It is still under warranty, but Best Buy will not send a technician to my home, and will not repair it unless I physically bring the appliance into a Best Buy store.

Appearance
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It is a good product. But v small comparing they replaced
I would recommend this to a friendCan’t hold anywhere near set temp
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had lots of good reviews so i needed a new basment drink fridge. Set it to 35 which is the lowest fridge temp you can set, put a wireless thermometer in there and its consistently over 42 degrees and never goes below 40. So if you like having lukewarm beverages. I would put it as a dont buy or dont use for any food needs. I haven’t tried the freezer because i didnt need a freezer.

AVOID AT ALL COSTS
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After 4+ months of use, it randomly stops cooling for 24-48 hours and it’s ruined our entire freezer of products 3 times now. We’re past the return window so I can’t even return it. We no longer trust the freezer and are trying to navigate the warranty process (not really expecting a long term fix). Avoid at all costs.

Damaged
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Think twice before purchasing from Best Buy. The product arrived damaged. I was told they would bring a replacement in two weeks. They didn’t show up. I was then told they would arrive the following Friday. They again did not show up or communicate in any way. It’s time to give up and cancel the charge on my card.

Delivery experience was the worst
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Buy somewhere else. Delivery was the worst experience. Paid for haul away service and delivery. People did not take away on the first or second visit had to schedule a third visit. Was supposed to get a bestbuy gift voucher for my troubles and that never happened either.
