Product review (2 stars): LOUD!!
This replaces an upright Kenmore 5cf freezer that broke in 5 days. I selected this as a replacement because I read other feedback about how quiet the unit is. From the moment I plugged the SPT in, I could hear it throughout my house - even upstairs. I am very disappointed, yet willing to give it a chance in the hopes that it's going to quiet down after the initial cool down. I can't stand the thought of having to replace a second unit in as many weeks. Others here remarked that it is quiet. Not sure why mine would be an outlier.
