My chest freezer is here!

I am to let it sit for at least an hour and a half before plugging it in, but that's okay. Right now I don't have anything to put in it. This will change soon, but I must invest in freezer bags first.

*does a happy dance*

If only the floor problem was as easily solved.

*sigh*

so, now that you have the freezer are you going to get another one to turn into a fridge?

you dont have to use his silly electronic circut, you can buy the part you need off the shelf.

what you want is called a Johnson Controls Refrigerator Thermostat

Probably not anytime soon, but probably when I get my own place. Right now my current fridge is just fine. It consumes more energy than a chest fridge, but for the most part it's pretty efficient.

you might want to get a vacuum sealer so you don't get freezer burn. we just have the cheap glad one that you can get at the grocery store and it really does work.

Good to know. I'll keep an eye out for one.

Note that this is only necessary if you bought a "frost free" or "automatic defrost" freezer. Regular non-automatic defrost freezers won't cause freezer burn.
