Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great product. This is my second one. I use one as a fridge and one as a freezer. The first one I have had for 2 years with no trouble. If the unit is completely fitted top to bottom in a sealed cabinet, I could see how it would overheat and become unreliable. The sides do get hot and if you don't have good airflow around a fridge it won't last long. That's most of the problems I saw in the reviews of others who bought this unit. Both of mine stand along and work perfectly and hardly come on to keep cool. Very quiet. So where and how you fit them would seem to be something you should take into account.

Lots of room Maintains constant temperature Quiet

Bought this as an extra fridge for frozen meal prep. It can be a fridge or freezer. The door is reversible. Does NOT sweat on the inside. This is a full fridge size so plan for the space. The door has an alarm if you leave the fridge open. temperature gauge right on the front. The white color looks very sterile (kinda like a lab fridge) so I just made a picture collage and covered it up. This has been a perfect addition to my household and worth every penny!

I wanted a frost-free upright freezer that was well made, easy to use, and uncomplicated. That's what I got. It was also simple to set up, and that it can be converted to a refrigerator is a plus. Since getting this freezer it has stayed consistently cold, and there appear to be no "hot spots." Even the food in the door shelves freezes quickly and stays that way. I have ample storage space, with room left over. If our kids were still home, I could have still used the 17.0 CF size, but would probably have opted for "one size up" as "insurance" if they were 16 or younger. Decided on the freezer because Insignia is made by Midea, which is owned by Haier. I've had my Haier microwave for over 20 years and it's still going strong. And, since Insignia is the Best Buy brand, I am not worried should I ever need service.

Just the right size and energy efficient too. I recently purchased an electric generator and plugged in my old freezer to see how much energy it used. An upright freezer should use according to sources is 800 watts per day or less. Discovered my old one was using 6400 watts in 12 hours. So I got this one and it using abot 650watts per day.

Freezer works fantastic, had for a couple years now in our Garage (Arizona) and not a single issue

My husband and I recently purchased the Insignia (17 Cu. Ft.) Garage Ready Upright Fridge/Freezer and I couldn't be happier! This freezer is an excellent value for the price...it has a sleek design and some impressive features including adjustable glass shelves, sturdy shelving in the doors and a stainless steel finish. In addition, the setup and delivery was outstanding. The team of 2 was incredibly friendly and professional! They arrived on time and handled everything with care, making sure everything was perfect before leaving...I honestly, wish I could include their names. Though I've only had this freezer for a few weeks, I highly recommend this freezer to anyone who is into food prep like myself and is looking for a quality purchase and excellent service!

This Large capacity upright freezer has been going strong for just under 3 years in our garage, it is garage ready by the way and all freezers are not. We have a matching one also running in refrigerator mode. Great there too!

Perfect size, haven’t had any issues. Great buy!

Great price and good quality. Accurate digital thermometer.

I love this freezer. Until the COVID-19 pandemic, it never occurred to me to obtain such a gloriously large freezer. I am able to comfortably keep it in my kitchen. I literally croon at this thrilling appliance. It's beautifully lit, perfectly constructed, attractively simple and I have filled it to the brim with frozen foods,meat, homemade bone broth, leftovers made into meals and ice creams purchased on sale. And, nothing falls on my feet. It's astounding that it could also be used as a refrigerator. If I had to do it all over again, I would be tempted to get another to use as a refrigerator. I honestly think that I might be happier with such a straight-forward construction than I am with my fancy French-door KitchenAid. Of course, I don't think that anyone else would see it that way!

Insignia brand is amazing! Love this and the option to make it a fridge or freezer with ease of temperature change. Had BB deliver and set up. Great customer service!

I purchased two of these for the garage (1 as a fridge, 1 freezer) and they so far haven’t disappointed. The units are quiet and maintain temperature. The doors seem to seal well, so much in fact that it creates a suction in which you have to open with a little more effort than your average fridge.

Great freezer. It’s a little hard to open, but that can be looked past since it was a good deal. Only reason I chose this one was I’ve had an insignia brand television for like 17 years and it’s still working very well.

I have the same one but bigger that I use as a freezer, and bought this one for the garage as a fridge. WHat a cool option to be able to switch from freezer to fridge, plus it was very affordable

I just got this roughly a month ago. As I expected (because I already have another one of these but not in stainless steel), it works great and fits our needs. The only issue keeping this from 5 stars is the door is really difficult to open. There may be an adjustment I need to do but not sure. I have to yank it pretty hard and if the refrigerator isn’t pretty full, the whole thing will move. Other than that, it’s great. Love the ease of settings too and the fact you can convert it to a freezer if needed.

It works perfect for out in the garage. It has nice storage space and enough LED lighting, so you can see everything. The best part is the gage on the front of the door.

Best purchase I've made yet... Love it ..I bought a new fridge with the freezer on the bottom and never thought about the fact that we would have to take everything out if we needed a item on the bottom so I bought the separate freezer that fits right next to mine and it's perfect .tons of room don't have to dig through to get what i want .I love ❤️

The freezer looks nice and works well. I like having the option to switch between fridge and freezer if my needs change later on. The size is fine (one more shelf would be nice though). Being able to set the temp without opening the door is nice. Overall, it's a good fridge so far. The main problem is not being able to switch the door swing. I know there's a wire in the hinge going to the front panel which is why it's single swing only. But it seems like an easy fix to add a plug+socket at the hinge on both sides to accommodate both swing directions. I'm lucky this is just a "garage freezer" so I had a little more freedom in my positioning, but having a fixed swing is a deal breaker for a lot of people. It just seems like a simple fix to almost double their perspective customers.

Excellent freezer - quick to chill down and easy to set up. Only had to put on the handle and level the legs. Easy display set up and very roomy. Replaced an 8 year old chest freezer that just died and this one was available virtually same day!
