Professional delivery and installation is available for every product we sell. We would be happy to coordinate delivery and installation for you.

Extended warranties are usually very inexpensive and can save you thousands in the future. Some can even cover extra costs that result, such as cost of food that spoils when your fridge dies. It's simple and inexpensive to purchase extended warranties and one of the smartest ways to protect your investment.

Appliances can be large, heavy and expensive. You probably don't have the special tools or expertise needed to fix them in a crisis. If you can spare a few thousand dollars without batting an eyelash for new appliances should they break tomorrow, don't buy a warranty. But if you're like most of us, protect yourself by purchasing inexpensive extended warranties when you buy a new product and save yourself big money in the long run.

Semiramis 5/8/2020

The freezer size and capabilities are excellent. The only downside is there are only two top sliding shelves. I need to order a whole bunch for underneath the top two sliding shelves, and cannot find it at all.

Mkimbrough 1/26/2020

We got this new freezer during Thanksgiving 2019. We brought it home plugged it in and the next day it was ready to use. It has plenty of room and the inside light is a great bonus feature. The holding basket that slides back and forth is very handy. I wish it would have come with more than one because there is plenty of room for 2 or 3 baskets. I'm definitely going to try to find out where to buy some more. We are very glad we bought this freezer.

We needed a freezer for our garage after moving to eastern MA. We wanted to be able to not run out of food during winter when getting to the store would be perilous. Love the size of the unit and it works great.

Drew188 8/21/2019

Needed a chest freezer that could fit down my narrow stairwell to the basement. The 15cu ft garage-ready GE was only 28.5" deep fitting perfectly through to the basement! I'm surprised more freezers aren't built that narrow so more people could use them! Looks great too!!!

FANTASTIC FREEZER

Pote 4/10/2019

Needed to replace our 21 year old GE chest freezer and again, decided on another GE chest freezer and, so happy we did !! Our new freezer took little time to reach freeze capacity so we were able to place our collection of frozen food inside it. It is also easier to reach the bottom of this freezer and for "short" people, this is another blessing.

mtnguy 10/4/2018

Freezer looks sleak, has a lot of room inside, and comes with 2 baskets. Top is flat, not rounded, so items do not slide off. Hardly makes any noise. Would recommend this freezer to anyone looking for a quality product that will last.
