This Insignia™ - 17 Cu. Ft. fridge is awesome this is the second one we own no problems at all love that you can program it to be one big freezer too.

Great secondary unit - why buy one when you buy two at twice the price? It has worked out great to have a full size freezer and matching refrigerator to supplement our smaller unit in the kitchen.
Doors are a little hard to open when they aren’t full - but that just means that seal is tight! Great value.

I lost my previous freezer of 23 years and this was the best replacement I could find. It fits in the same footprint as the previous one (cube and height). The front display is also a great plus. So far (one month out) this is a great replacement freezer that also can be used as a refrigerator.

We’re delighted to hear that it has been a great replacement for your previous freezer of 23 years.

Only reason I couldn’t give it a rating of 5 is in shipping one of the door shelf’s was off on 1 side and wedged against the freezer wall. Delivery guys had to to pull open the door with force and caused the white coating to get marred up.
The freezer itself is great. Door seals TIGHT so it may be difficult for younger kids or someone with strength or disability concerns to grab something out of it.
I like it and would buy it again. Only using as a freezer

Ordered Insignia 17th Ft upright freezer online, picked up from store, as delivery to my address was not an option. Unboxed and let it sit for 24 hours before plugging it in. Set it to 0 degrees Fahrenheit per instructions. Let it run an hour or so. Placed unfrozen popsicles on each shelf in the freezer to monitor freezing. Checked the next day as it takes a while to come up to temperature. Items on the bottom shelf were beginning to freeze, but no others. On day 2, items on the bottom shelf were hard frozen. Items on the next shelf up was soft frozen. The items on the top two shelves were not frozen at all, not even slushy, completely liquid. 4 days later and all the items in the freezer are in the exact same condition. Nothing frozen on the top two shelves at all and on the third shelf down, the popsicle seems to be thawing. I called the customer service number on the appliance, told him what the display said as instructed. The agent stated I’d done everything right and he doesn’t know what’s wrong. He offered for a technician to come out to diagnose the problem and recommend replace or repair. I stated I have no interest in having to possibly repair a brand new item out of the box, as it’s telling of the poor quality and indicates potential future problems. My only option is to load it back up and drive 1.5 hours to my nearest Best Buy store. Not sure if I even want to replace it and try again. Shameful that this is the quality of material that is being sold to the public, especially an item over $700.

Great appliance since it has dual mode (refrigerator/deep freeze). I only use it for deep freeze mode and I upgraded it from another insignia (5.1 cu.ft). This one has digital display which allows you to adjust temp really quickly. The best thing for me is that it has a lot of lights inside.

I bought this to replace our chest freezer.
The convenience of shelf is amazing (have the 17 cu ft). It’s in my garage where the temperature in summer climbed to 100F for few days and it had no problems at all.
When running I hear no discernible noise.
I have so far used it as a freezer and I can consistently get temperature at -11F.
Icing on the cake is that Bestbuy set this up for me and made sure it’s aligned and balanced.
