This freezer is phenomenal! Got it about a week ago. It was well packed and unpacked in a snap! Waited the recommended 24 hours, plugged it in and it was at temperature in about two hours. Works great! Adds just enough to our freezer capacity. I feel like just being able to buy meat on sale this unit will pay for itself in a year. I am worried about manual defrost but I haven’t owned it long enough to see any frost forming. I have owned it long enough to say, this thing is quiet! So quiet that I was worried it had quit. It is absolutely silent!!!
