I have not had this long, but it is what I have been looking for in a freezer.  Although chest freezers take up more floor space, they are so much easier to deal with.  Let gravity be your friend!  Why fight with placement and gravity?  Plus, of course, heat rises so uprights work harder.  This freezer has great features that I could not easily find in an upright unless I bought a gigantic freezer.  When my old upright continued to work but not freeze & the alarm did not go off, I threw away all my destroyed food and jumped on this as soon as I found it.  Thank God the pandemic is slowing down or I would never have been able to find a freezer, much less one with an audible alarm, a great size chest, so many sliding compartments, etc.
