I did not realize chest freezers were in demand and scarce right now, but Wayfair had what I needed. Arrived sooner than expected, but with a significant dent! The damage doesn't seem to be affecting the freezers performance, but I reported it to Wayfair immediately in case. The unit is extremely quiet, but a small green light on the front shows when it is running. I cleaned the interior (multiple times) as per the instructions, but the chemical smell has not dissipated. I don't yet know if it will transfer to my food, but if it does I will amend my review!
