I looked around for a medium sized freezer and the price was at least 50 bucks less than I could find locally. We have been replacing less efficient items in our home. I was very pleased that the yearly cost is only 29.00/yr on the energy guide. Since our electrical cost is just above a nickle rather than $10.65 national average, a dollar a month sounds thrifty to me.

This is the second Danby appliance we own. The other is a dishwasher and 4 years old. Like the freezer it is ultra efficient. Both do match the lines and curves (of the Designer Series) if they happen to be in the same space. Ours are not, but might be important for some.

One thing I was impressed with was the packaging. The foam on the sides was curved (fitted) to prevent shipping damage. The outside box had seen some use. The freezer was in absolutely perfect condition. I did carefully inspect it! Living down the road from the geographical center of North America, the freezer put on a few miles ;~) and was shipped vertical on our UPS truck!

If you are considering a freezer, a chest style is the way to go for energy savings. On an upright, the cold flows out every time you open the door. Not so with a chest style. Cold does not go uphill. Hot moist air does not flow downhill so frost formation is very minimal. No need for "frost-free". Just defrost once a year. That's about the time to find all that stuff that has been there too long anyway!

Prices of food have been jumping up and down in our local area. I have been using a freezer to help with our budget. Most people do not know that cheese and milk can be frozen. We pick them up when on sale. No need for a club membership and often cheaper if you shop right. Same for meat, veggies, ice cream, pizza and the standard freezer stockpile.

I have never purchased such a large item anywhere online before, but the fairly large freezer was packaged extremely well and delivered by UPS. As advertised, it certainly has ample room, and even though it is a chest freezer, the two included baskets make life a lot easier than otherwise. Nevertheless, it is the perfect size even if the baskets were not included: two times now, I have had to dig to the bottom for buried items, and, except for cold hands, it is really not bad of a task.

It was priced comparably that could be purchased locally, and with free SuperSaver shipping and no tax, it was a steal, especially since it was delivered right through our front door and into the living room where it is now.

Other than that what can I say? It hasn't stopped running since when I first plugged it in two months ago, but also an important point: it is absolutely quiet. We keep it in the living room where we always sit and can't hear anything at all: the small green light on the bottom front tells us that it's still on the job!

This thing developed ice and dropped to temp in less then 5 hours. It is a lot bigger than it seems like it should be. It has a little built in cage that is very nice for holding things you are worried about getting crushed, and a moveable/removeable basket for small stuff you want to be able to keep a hold of.

Nice freezer for a good price. The delivery folk were very nice as well, brought it right into the room we needed it in.

Works great! It froze my spiced rum in no time without maxing out the thermostat. If you're looking for a little more freezer space I would definitely recommend this one.

This freezer arrived very well packed,no dents,& only took minutes to set up. I placed a cup of water inside & let it run about 4 hours to ensure that it was freezing well. It does a wonderful job & has a lot more room inside than I expected. I live in an apartment & have it set up in my dining area & covered with a tablecloth. It is so quiet that,with the tablecloth over it,it just looks like I have a buffet table. I haven't noticed a huge difference in my electric bill & have definitely saved a lot being able to buy things on sale & having them handy rather than buying so much "Fast Food"! I can't say enough about how much I love this freezer. I HIGHLY recommend it!
