Quiet running, compact upright freezer with wire shelves.
A little too compact for my needs, but making it work. Difficult to open the door right after closing it, but a good tight vacuum seal. Wish it had an actual handle as opening it would be easier. The best thing is that it runs quietly unlike my previous freezer.

Great freezer!
We really like this freezer. It has a compact footprint, but has plenty of storage space inside. It was reasonably priced and is working great! We find that it's much easier to access items in this stand-up model than in a chest type freezer. Highly recommended!

Little Giant of a Freezer
Perfect size freezer for single folks living alone or young couples just getting started. Has more space than I can fill up. My home is small and it fits nicely in my home office. Very quite. I would recommend this freezer to family and friends.

Excellent Freezer, great price
We love this freezer. Perfect size for 2 people. Not too deep. Easy to find things. We've had it for 6 months and it could use defrosting. That would be my only negative comment. Would have hoped for annual defrosting.

Good freezer
Very quiet and efficient. Only draw back is storage. You need either containers or packages that stack well for max amount of usage. Other wise great freezer works well in our garage in sub freezing temperatures.

Great little freezer
Love the size and certainly does the job. The only downer is that you must manually defrost the freezer twice a year. Even though I am in my seventies, I have never defrosted a freezer.

FAQs
Garage ready means that the freezer is well insulated and equipped to handle temperature extremes in an enclosed garage. The garage must be enclosed so that the freezer is not subject to snow, rain and other environmental weather conditions not meant for an electrical appliance. The exterior temperature range that the garage ready freezers can operate within is 0F - 110F/-17C – 43C.
Danby’s refrigerators and freezers operate at a sound level between 35 and 46 decibels. This is within the normal decibel range for modern freezers.
Doors reversals can be performed on the majority of Danby’s upright freezers. Door reversal instructions can be found in the owner’s manual. Video instructions can be found using this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=13IJrUfP95M&t=15s

The temperature range varies based on model. Please consult your owner’s manual or the product page on the website.
This varies based on unit and model. See your owner’s manual for defrost type and instructions.
Our freezers are not designed for outside installation. This also includes porches, carports, etc.

Please refer to the energy guide associated with your unit.
Have you recently opened and then closed the freezer (over the last 1-5 minutes)? If so, being unable to open the unit again right away is an indication that your door seal is working well.
