Rated 5 out of 5 by W Upright Freezer
The unit is compact and freezes quickly. Took it out of the box and it went down to Zero Degrees F in no time. We have only had the unit a short time but it appears to be a good system. The upright system is by far a better design than the chest type.

Rated 4 out of 5 by bla bla bla Good Freezer, but not for big items
This freezer does the job and I like it, but the shelves are piped into the freezer itself. The shelves are not movable so you cannot store large items in this freezer, only items that can fit on each self. I wish i would have known this before hand.

Model # DUF808WE. This unit is the perfect size for us seniors. I love everything about this freezer except find it very noisy. When starting up, it sounds like a jet engine warming up for takeoff for about 15 seconds before leveling off and running normally. It is very distracting and I would love to know if there is a way to eliminate this awful start up noise.
