Title: Perfect for lab
Review: Great mini freezer for my office lab. Looks nice and is works as advertised. Is able to maintain -20c for my lab per CLIA requirements. Perfect size for reagents or vaccines. Good value for the cost, would recommend.

Title: Perfect!
Review: This freezer holds a good amount of items and uses minimal power to keep them frozen. Normally, having an electric appliance like that running at the same time as my space heater on the same circuit would case it to trip, but this uses even less power than a heater. I can also keep it at minimum cold setting and my container of ice stays perfectly frozen. It is also pretty lightweight and easy to carry.

Title: Great little freezer
Review: We had a space in the garage with a small footprint and needed a freezer to put there for the freezer jams and produce I prepare in the warm/hot months. This freezer fit the spot perfectly. It arrived well packaged with no problems, unpacked easily thanks to a clever lift-off package design, and was easy to put in place. It is remarkable quiet and holds a lot. I've already filled it full because this is the end of the summer fruit and produce season here in North Florida. Now I have more space in the freezer inside the house!

Title: the used/acceptable 1.1cu ft.....
Review: took me a month to decide to order this little 1.1cu.ft at such a lowered price, fearful of what shape it would be in. there was no description of why it was just 'acceptable' - the lowest sellable warehouse ranking. I imagined big dents, scapes, holes, messed-up wiring.what I received - packed like it had never been opened, but bottom of box was wet. keys, scraper and mini ice cube tray included. no dents or blemishes. the door opens right and the freezer sat level right off the bat so didn't have to mess with any tools (thankfully!). I let it sit upright unplugged for 14 hrs, then plugged it in - surprisingly made no sound at all. put in the included little ice tray to test, it froze quickly. it is filled with 'expendable' stuff for now (until I am confident) and continues to work fine - freezing hard set at 3.it is only about 8" deep on the bottom shelf (the enclosed motor takes up the inside room at the back) but it's nearly 18" high and wide - enough space to give needed relief to the overjammed cross-top freezer on my refrigerator.the only issue I have come across - the door catches on the lock receptacle that sticks out on the center bottom when I close it even tho the freezer is level - maybe that is why it was deemed used/acceptable? I tilted it back from what looked to be level ever so slightly and now the door doesn't catch. am past the 3-month mark and it is still working fine, silent with a bit of frost buildup. will 'edit to add' if any problems arise, but for now am so glad I finally ordered it!edit to add - has been a year now and still going strong with no issues, finally time to defrost.. it must not eat up much electricity- no diff in electric bill.

Title: HUGE, low power consumption, GREAT
Review: Can't believe how LARGE this is- more than enough for my needs (I'd estimate large enough to hold at least a month's worth of frozen food). Glad I didn't get the 3 cubic feet one. It holds MUCH more than the photo (or video) suggests (more below). Well-packed, in perfect shape. Indeed, as the instructions assert, if the freezer isn't level the door doesn't stay closed. I'd never done this before, have poor manual dexterity and it took me quite a while to adjust the feet on each side, using a level horizontally and vertically (checking the side to side tilt and the front-to-back). It wasn't difficult, but it required time and patience. The instructions say turn each foot (two at the front corners) to the right to lower, to the left to raise, which confused me a bit but it translates to counter-clockwise to lower, clockwise to raise. Once I finally got it level (I have a wonky surface in my travel trailer), the door closed tight. At one point I tried locking the door with the key and THAT did the trick, so if it ever becomes an issue (like when traveling) nice to have a surefire method for ensuring that the door remains closed.Note- I got it all situated, THEN read the part about initially setting the temperature knob to 5, the highest it will go, so had to pull it out again and set it (see photo of the back- the white round dial on the left). SO, all ready to go, plugged it in, and put in an ice cube tray of water. It took less than TWO hours to freeze solid! (I read reviews of other freezers that said it took overnight for ice to freeze initially).To give you an idea of what can fit in the freezer (I experimented), it can hold 39 full-size Banquet TV dinners + 2 smaller packages, like Lean Cuisines, + 4 small frozen juice containers + 8 smallish burritos, like Don Jose's. I've checked repeatedly, and regarding a large bag of ice, there's none of that slightly melting and then re-freezing again, which results in ice that's congealed cubes and requires an icepick (my house fridge does that). Ice cubes remain frozen solid and separate, and ice cream is as hard as a rock, the way I like it.[UPDATE: The thing about the ice not slightly melting I've found is only true if you keep the ice on the bottom shelf. If you place it on the top shelf it does slightly melt, requiring an ice pick. But ice cream kept on the top shelf is always rock hard, as is other frozen food, so it seems the effect is slight and of little consequence, my house fridge/freezer does the same thing. I've kept chicken, fish, etc. frozen on the top shelf for months at a time, no ill effects whatsoever and cooks up fresh. Also, for what it's worth, we had a power outage of 10 hours and everything still seemed to be frozen solid. After five months of use still LOVE the freezer.]I was unable to upload the video of the freezer from the Whynter site for some reason, you can go there to see it (but it also shows those little containers/cartons of Haagen Dazs-type icecream, which don't provide an accurate impression of how MUCH it holds). You can also download the owner's manual (note: the freezer is listed under refrigerators, for some reason). FYI, the owner's manual states that the freezer draws 75 watts, .88 amps. It comes with a small paper sticker on the front that removes easily after soaking for a few minutes with dishwashing lotion. So quiet, you can barely tell when it's running. And it's BEAUTIFUL. Couldn't be happier with this freezer! If it malfunctions or dies I'll update my review.

Title: Perfect Fit for Vaccine Storage
Review: We bought this freezer as recommended by the NY state VFC program to replace the power guzzling Thermo Scientific Revco ULT ($8K+) freezer. This Whynter freezer serves the purpose and meets all vaccine storage guidelines mandated by the state. After turning it on and monitoring the temperature for the past 3 days, it has been consistently maintaining a temperature of -24.3° C. The vaccine requires a range of -20° C to -15° C whereas this freezer maintains well below it. We are a pediatric practice that administers vaccine via VFC program. This freezer is an excellent cost effective option and pediatrics office does not requires ULT monsters. The price on Amazon was very competitive and arrived on time in a good package as promised as part of the prime shipment. I would strongly recommend other pediatric offices to try this freezer before trying other brands. I am sure this will last for sometime. See the attached picture with state provided temperature monitor.

Review: It is very small but sufficient for my purpose (until the stay-home order started !!). I place it on top of my Danby mini fridge and the pair looks very neat, since both have the stainless steel look. The only downside is that it frosts over within a week. I defrosted it. It frosted up again. So I just leave it as is, frost and all.
