good for 2 months.... big paperweight after that
Pros: it is out of my house now
Cons: poor customer service from danby
"Worked ok for 2 months and then died. It is not fun to open a freezer of spoiled food. Danby is difficult to deal with and I would not recommend their products. Dissappointed with the lack of communication from Danby (said they would call back and failed to do so after a week)."

Simply works!
Pros: easily balanced using both front legs, small wattage/amperage, manual dial to adjust internal temperature
Cons: no door lock, no light inside
"This front opening Danby 4.2 cu ft freezer worked like a charm from the moment it was plugged in. It has a lot less room than the chest freezer it replaced, but has plenty of room for extra "Costco" items bought for our decreasing family. It has no light; the door spaces hold items with horizontal "bars" that let frozen items slip under the bars if not carefully placed, and the very lowest shelf is only half as deep as the other shelves AND is a drip tray to catch water when you manually defrost the unit. As with other smaller Danby freezer and refrigerators, the outside-sides (left & right sides) get warm &/or very warm, so tight spaces are the wrong placement for this freezer (it needs space left and right of it)."

Nice little freezer
Pros: quiet, efficient
Cons: door a bit too tight
"The only downside is that the door is a bit too tight. Thus, it moves every time I try to open the door. Maybe a little rubber on the feet would have solved that."

Good mid-size freezer
Pros: large capacity, fast freezing, fast shipping, quiet
"Just purchased this freezer a few days ago. Super fast shipping! Ordered on thursday and it arrived on Friday afternoon! Plugged it in to test out and you can feel the coolness starting right away. Looks like it has quite good storage capacity, but i haven't started filling it up yet. The only complaint was it came with a small small dent on the side. I am using this in basement storage room so no big deal to me. So far i am pleased with purchase."

Great Value
Pros: lots of room and freezes quickly.
Cons: none so far
"This is a great upright freezer that fits anywhere. Really impressed at how much you can put in it. It holds more than I thought it would and freezes quickly.
Best purchase I have made in a long time.
NOTE: I did have to get 2 freezers as the first one was smashed on the inside. Must have been dropped during delivery. Costco service sent a new one and I got it 3 days later. No hassle. Shout out to Costco service for sure!"

Very Happy finally...
Pros: compact yet lots of space
"Costco shined with this purchase. Order # 1 the box was damaged and costco took back no problem. Ordered #2 and the unit was defective. I called manufacturer and they were very helpful and suggested rather than getting repaired to return. Again Costco took back no problem. I now have the third one. I love this little freezer. It has lots of space and fits nicely in my kitchen."

Great little unit
Pros: super efficient, compact
Cons: cheaper elsewhere
"We bought this model over a year ago. Compact but big performance. Too bad it can be purchased elsewhere for MUCH less at a place that rhymes with "fall heart" for less than $175 in 2009.
Super quiet operation. You can only ever hear it click off if you're listening for a sound. Even standing beside it, you cannot hear it running. Ours is set below half and the biggest meat freezes quite well."

Excellent Freezer
Pros: very large storage area for size of unit, really like the easy access to items
Cons: a little expensive
"I've only had the freezer a week, but so far I'm quite pleased with the performance. I set the freezer to the mid temperature range and it seems to be keeping the items inside quite cold.
I have it in a storage room without much ventilation, but it doesn't seem to be producing a lot of heat so I think that it must be quite energy efficient.
For anyone with a "Betty Crocker" sized apartment fridge/freezer (which most apartments in Vancouver have), this is the freezer for you. Lots of extra space to shop at COSTCO for frozen items. :)"
