    Best Buy BEST at RUINING YOUR DAY AND NOT WANTING

    The salesman was more interested in getting me to join the rewards club then letting me know my delivery would be weeks away. Instead he told us it was scheduled for Wednesday that next week. Time off work and phone calls was a total loss of about $250 for the day. Went in the store to talk to the manager and he said he couldn’t leave the podium by the front doors to have a conversation with a customer. My goigle review will say the same. Shame on you!

    Purchased 9/23/22. On 12/22/23 opened the door and everything was defrosting - no longer under warranty. They can't do the estimate to repair until 1/3/24. Major loss of food. The freezer was installed in a temperature controlled garage and clean environment. We purchased this to "upgrade" from an inexpensive chest freezer which worked flawlessly for years and was still working. I DO NOT RECOMMEND this product.

    Poor Quality freezer/refrigerator

    Thought this was a great freezer until I came back from vacation to find it has died (after only 20 months!!!) and left me with 13.8 Cu.Ft. of thawed out food - which had to go into the trash ASAP for an untold of loss to go along with the $600 freezer. It appears the Geak Squad only services devices where the extra warranty was purchased on the website. Funny, this is supposed to be Best Buy's signature brand. Won't be shopping there again.

    I have been using it in freezer mode for 15 months, just over a year, and it suddenly stopped cooling. The outside panel says it’s still 0 degrees, but it’s hot inside and will not cool down at all anymore. The freezer was completely full and all the food spoiled.

    Failed at 11 days

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    The compressor failed 11 days after delivery. I noticed on day 10 that the compressor seemed to be running each time I walked past the freezer. Then, around 7 AM this morning I started hearing the "high temp" alarm. Thankfully, we had a thermometer sitting inside the freezer as the display is no longer reading a temp. I looked inside and the thermometer confirmed the temp is above freezing. I tried turning down the temp...nothing. I selected quick freeze...nothing. The compressor failed AFTER LESS THAN 2 WEEKS. COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE.

    Display doesn't match temperature by 6 degrees

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I want to like this freezer/refrigerator, but when the digital display doesn't match the actual temperature it defeats the purpose. To make it worse, there are limits on the range. So a 35 deg setting results in a refrigerator temperature of 41 and settings won't allow it to go lower the refrigerator application is worthless.

    Stopped cooling after only 17 months. The display didn’t show any error codes. I tried unplugging it and letting it sit open for a day, but that didn’t make a difference. Without a warranty, I’ll have to pay $100 just to get the geek squad to look at it and give an estimate. Once we tack on parts and labor costs for an actual repair, it’s a better bet to buy a new fridge elsewhere. $550 down the drain!

    The freezer will not say on. It keeps turning off. I’ve been transferred to 6 different people at Best Buy and they told me I had to bring the freezer to the store. My husband and I are in our late 60/70’s and they want us to bring it to the store. Crazy!

    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.
