Product review (1 stars): A Catastrophic Failure - a.k.a The Murder of Our Wedding Cake
The freezer arrived dented; however, instead of returning it, I opted for the (more convenient) option of accepting a discount -- the dent appeared cosmetic in nature. Fast forward 8 months - the day before my wife and I planned to celebrate our 1st wedding anniversary. Whilst packing for our romantic getaway, I went to retrieve the top tier of wedding cake - carefully and lovingly saved to celebrate our first year of marriage. The cake had been sitting in the freezer for many months. To my horror, I found the freezer filled with mold and rotting food. The freezer had died (seemingly just a few weeks before).
A tragic story indeed, but more tragic given that the freezer was 8 months old, and failed in such a catastrophic manner.
I plan to replace this freezer, but this time, I will carefully research (and consider more expensive and more reliable) options -- an 8 month lifespan is clearly reflective of compromised workmanship and quality.
