Chest Freezer 5.0 Cu.Ft Mini Deep Freezer for Dorm Kitchen Apartment, Black

This little freezer is perfect! Not too big and not too small. I’m so happy I made this purchase. I can barely hear it. The condition of the freezer is immaculate. Very easy to use. I love it!

This freezer is just perfect to keep bags of ice and is deep enough to hold meat and frozen veggies. Fits in small places. Freezes well.

Perfect for small apartment.

This deep freezer can hold approximately seven packages of meats from Costco. I’m really glad I bought it. I’m an empty nester now so it was nice to downgrade to something that was apartment sized. I took the bins out because I needed to to make sure it closed properly. I don’t need the bins for anything right now.

I have to say, when I found out that this thing was coming from California, I was bummed, worried, I live in NJ. The reviews for the shipping and handling business being somewhat negative, I just had faith and gave it a shot. Even my bf was doubtful about it coming in tact. But the box itself was almost perfect, there was one giant hole in the bottom side panel of box but as I unwrapped it, I braced myself and it was in perfect condition. I plugged it in after 8 hrs or so because I didn't want to wait honestly, and so far it is impressive. I put the setting on 5 and it started frosting in about an hr and a half. I put my ice pops and a few Popsicles in there to test it out for now before moving in my meats and seafood. And to my surprise, it is just awesome. I already have a standard fridge/freezer in my kitchen but my bf and I recently had a baby, and I needed more room for our food to cook at home while on maternity not to mention breast milk storage. 🙃 it's bigger than I expected, but mind you it's also because I was able to free up my original freezer. I think the most challenging part is properly storing/consolidating your meats and things in zip locks, labeling them for some kind of organization will be the hardest part for us eventually.. so far it's better than I expected from delivery to its function. The freezer itself gets kinda warm on the outside so I suggest proper ventilation and it not to be too close to anything for it to breathe properly is important. Also I'm thinking of propping it up on some kind of stand or shelf because I think it could be a little higher for the bf lol. The bf is 6'2 im 5'2. I dont mind the height. The only con I would have for this is ofcorse the anxiety of it coming in perfect condition during transport, but ultimately there is a protectant film that is on all panels that seem to be on each piece before it was built together, because it is a PAIN to get off completely. I honestly took off the front of it only because my ocd was seriously kicking in. Also this one particular freezer does NOT have a light on the inside so I suggest to have it out in the open or perhaps buy a pop light like I did, because I have mine in my walk in pantry. Don't mind the scuffs on the top of the freezer, there is still that damn plastic film on it I refuse to remove still, it's in perfect condition otherwise lol. If anything changes in quality or functionality of it I will be sure to update. But I'm definately happy about my purchase. Update, im impressed on so many of you finding my review so helpful! I do have to mention the hinge to one side busted bad, I don't know how it happened. So bummed but I just have to double check that it is closed properly now. Still functions perfectly, I wish I could replace a hinge but it works just fine.

Great job

Did not work

Excellent size for my small apartment.
