The door is very difficult to open. No handle?, just an insert to pull. The unit slides all over the garage floor when you try to open it. Won’t stay steady. So far, disappointed.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Delivered unboxed, plugged it in, came home its cold. 3 days later put frozen items in, keeps them frozen. Never even had to adjust it,, default setting was fine..
Low noise, doesn't cycle much. Actually bigger than I thought
