In the Beginning
In 1943, Westye F. Bakke built the first freestanding freezer in the basement of his Madison, WI. home. A businessman with a keen ability to anticipate post-World War II refrigeration trends, he founded Sub-Zero Freezer Company just two years later in an old two-car garage. From its modest beginnings, Sub-Zero has become what it is today: the recognized leading manufacturer of premium built-in home refrigerators.
Since its founding, Sub-Zero has pioneered quality products that meet its customers needs. In the mid-1950s, for example, the company developed the built-in refrigerator - a unit that changed the future of kitchen design by fitting within surrounding counter and cabinet space. Over time, the company has refined its early concept and has brought to market a comprehensive line of built-in models, including the 200 Series of undercounter models, its award-winning 500 Series, the design-flexible 600 Series, the integrated 700 Series, and, most recently, the state-of-the-art 400 Series of wine storage.
For 60 years, Sub-Zero has offered innovative, aesthetically appealing and technologically advanced solutions to meet virtually any home refrigeration need. Through foresight and responsiveness, the company has earned its position as an industry leader - a position Sub-Zero intends to maintain well into the new millennium.

THIS BEHAVIOR IS NORMAL THAT THE 3 STAR REVIEWER EXPERIENCES.
SUBZERO VACUUM SEALS THE UNIT. IF YOU OPEN AND CLOSE THE DOOR, A VACUUM KICKS IN. IF YOU TRY AND OPEN IT DURING THAT 20 SECONDS YOU MIGHT ACTUALLY DAMAGE THE UNIT. DON'T NOT DO IT.
IN A COMPANY ENVIRONMENT THIS IS PROBABLY A BAD CHOICE -- BECAUSE SOMEONE WILL SLAM IT SHUT AND THE NEXT PERSON WANTS TO GET INTO IT. BUT FOR MOST PEOPLE THIS FEATURE IS A HUGE PLUS -- WHAT OTHER MANUFACTURER MAKES SUCH AN AIR TIGHT UNIT THAT IT SUCKS ALL THE AIR OUT TO KEEP EVERYTHING SUPER FRESH?

SINCE MY COMPANY PUCHASED THE UC24 UNIT, WE HAVE BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH OPENING DOOR.
MANY TIMES WE HAVE A PROBLEM OPENING AS IF THERE IS A VACUUM THAT MAKES IT HARD TO OPEN THE DOOR AND WE ARE CONCERRNED THAT THE DOOR HANDLE IS GOING TO BREAK OFF AND CAUSE DAMAGE TTO THE CUSTON WOOD PANEL.
