Product review (1 stars): Freezer Unit malfunctioned three times in the last four years - this time was a complete loss.
I purchased the freezer SideKick March 2013.  It looks very nice and has plenty of room for a family of four, plus a little extra when you have impromptu gatherings and you need to make appetizers and munchies.  Much like the other consumer, my freezer unit froze up (or should I say heated up) twice and we had to place repair calls to get it back to proper cooling.  This occurred twice in a matter of 4 year, which is more than I have had to call on for my other non-Whirlpool appliances (only placed 2 calls for my 15-year old refrigerator).  My family and I recently took a 5-day vacation, and while we were gone we had two house sitters.  On the day we returned we were notified by the house sitter that the house was beginning to have a faint smell. By the time we arrived that evening, the freezer unit was confirmed malfunctioning and was actually circulating warm air (like an Easybake oven).  We lost everything. It smelled so bad that I actually vomited twice attempting to clean it out.  We have tried everything to remove the stench, but no luck.  I spent over $1,800 for a piece junk.  I contacted Whirlpool tonight and they have not heard or reported of any complaints.  The service rep, Lauren T said, "This model is not noted with any known issues in our system and it is not under any recalls," but then proceeded to inform me that she noted a complaint from me.  I was instructed to contact an 800 number to schedule a service and that I may qualify for the "Repair + 1".  Truthfully, I do not want this thing because I can't get the smell out of it, and I don't want to invest any more than I already have knowing that it is only a matter of time before it breaks down again.  Buyer beware! Consider another freezer before buying this one.
