 Works great
This freezer is working great. I've had it about 2 months and no problems. It's light (empty) and for what I'm using it for it is perfect. I bought it as an addition to my current small frig/freezer in my 5th wheel. It doesn't take up a ton of space but has plenty of room for my additional frozen items. I set it at max freeze and it is in the -10 to -15 degree range. It is very quiet. I also like the very light swish sound it gives out when you close the door. It actually sounds like it is sucking air out of the freezer. Very solid well made door. I can't say much about energy efficiency per say as I haven't noticed much increase in my electric bill. But I have quite a few electric leaches in my trailer. (TV's heaters, washer/dryer stereo etc. It doesn't seem to run very long when it does turn on.

 a great value - if it keeps running!
I have only had this a couple of months, but it is a great value if you need just a little bit of extra freezer space -- or a good stop gap if you don't have room for a big freezer. Probably better for a single or couple vs. family... but, the pull out wire baskets keep everything easily visible. And the price it right!!! I just hope it runs for 5 years -- you know how stuff is these days... about 3 years is all one should expect, even from high-end brands, from my experience.

Good price for a secondary freezer.
I have had this freezer running now for 3 months and have 0 frost. Not sure what some of those people were doing, but I doubt the freezer was at fault. I use this as a backup freezer however, so usually what I put in is already frozen. I suspect the frost people put in a whole bunch of unfrozen stuff at once or something to that effect.
My only qualm is that the door doesn't shut totally without you pressing it shut... so probably not the best if you don't pay attention to things like that.

 great freezer
This upright freezer works great. We had a power outage for over 10 hours. The door was closed the whole time and everything was still frozen solid when the power finally came back up. It was stocked with over $300 worth of food, so I was very happy about how it stayed frozen. If my formula is correct, 126.5 watts to keep this running (115V x 1.1A=126.6 watts) , I'm ordering a backup battery that should run this during a outage. Although I won't really need to start up the battery until after 10 hours or so.

Freezes everything fast!
Received this on July 24th. So far no problems at all, everything is frozen solid in there. We had a similar freezer, a Kenmore for over 10 years and it was still working except the hinges were plastic and the bottom one broke. We looked all over and couldn't find one that fit so we got this freezer. The hinges on the Koolatron are metal, the top one covered in plastic so we hope this freezer lasts at least as long as the Kenmore.

 Amazon Customer Service Excelled
Ordered small Upright Freezer thru Amazon. Unit came damaged in corner. Contacted Amazon Customer Service same day. Since the freezer seemed to work and there were no more in stock, I agreed to a credit allowance and the assurance the unit could be returned for full credit if inoperative. The freezer checked out OK after 24 hours. Nice little freezer for our needs. I did purchase the extended protection as well. I could not be happier with Amazon customer service and their professional handling of our issue.

Good little Freezer
I bought this because I just needed extra freezer space. It frosted up like crazy after the first few days. I think I overloaded the bins/drawers so it couldn't work efficiently. It isn't frost free but that doesn't bother me. Another reviewer mentioned to be sure and let it sit upright AND unplugged for a couple of hours. The condenser oil needs to settle. It was delivered sitting on its side. While this instruction is noted in the user manual, I might have missed it. I appreciated the advice.
