“Nice Freezer - for the short time it lasts”
I bought this Freezer in November, 2008. Up until now, it's been a great freezer - plenty of room, quiet, low energy consumption, does the job well. BUT...here it is, early October 2010 (not even 2 years old) and my temperature alarm comes on. I noticed a little bit of frost accumulating inside, so I...

Kenmore 8.8 cu. ft. Chest Freezer (1694) Reviews
This freezer is quiet, light and is a perfect size. Favorite featuers are that it has a lock, temperature alarm, interior light, and good seals with little frost buildup.
Overall, I am very pleased with this purchase. The freezer looks good and has performed well thus far. We recently put an 1/8th of a cow in the freezer, and still have a lot of room left over. I wish it had a display for the actual temperature inside the freezer. I purchased a seperate freezer thermometer to make sure the temp was in the range that it needed to be. In doind so, I noticed (to no surprise) that there is a pretty significant temperature difference from the top to the bottom. I'll be sure to put the more temperature sensetive items in the bottom. It's in our basement, so the sound...
read full review »We purchased this freezer because it was the right size for us and the black color met the decor. However the first one we ordered made a horrible gurgling noise all the time. After an unsuccessful attempt at an online remedy through Sears, we called the repair hotline and scheduled a repairman since it was within 30 days of the purchase.
The repairman arrived, basicaly shrugged his shoulders and said "I would return it and get another one, I can't fix it". We returned it, and are very happy with the replacement. The moral of the story, don't be unhappy with a new purchase. We were...
read full review »This was the prefect freezer i was looking for. All the options i wanted and everything my wife needed. Good sales person not pushy and knows his products. The freezer is roomy,but does not take up alot space in the house. Also fits right up against the wall without hindering the lid from opening. I would say get this kenmore freezer,you can not go wrong.
I had this exact same problem. But I put a screw in mine to pull it out.
"Beware of this design flaw!3 star rating by DCBCLE from Cleveland, OH on September 6, 2009 at Sears "As a freezer, this works fine -- it keeps things cold and it looks nice. But it has such a boneheadedly stupid design flaw that wasted 2 hours of my time that I had to write a review. The drain plug for the inside bottom of the freezer can somehow flip over on its axis -- say, while you are cleaning the freezer -- and become lodged in the drain hole. I tried several different ways to remove it, and finally was forced to get...

This is a Very good buy for any home owner. Great quality and very energy star efficient. Very little frost build-up. Its Very quiet running. I would recomend this to anyone !!!
Kenmore 8.8 cu ft chest freezer in black is a great value. I shopped around for days, looking for freezers, and reviews both on freezers and delivery. Some reviews on other stores quoted freezers being damaged in freight. But sears delivery was superb, and no damage to my new freezer at all. Its worth the extra money for the black finish, and it also has a temp alarm in which the white one does not. It is very quite, only noise you hear is a click ping when the compressor comes on. You can not hear it even hum, unless your ear is right down to the side where the motor is. I did turn it...
