I ordered this deep freezer in April took several months to receive due to shortage during the pandemic. However, does not make any noise, very little frost. I turned the freezer on and wait the allotted time 2-3 hrs I believe before adding the food. I love that is compact but holds a lot of food. I was able to put at least 3-4 weeks of meat for a family of four in this fridge. It is surprisingly deep which makes up for its compact size. Get this freezer if you have a small kitchen or home it will fit in most corners, currently where I have it.
