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.

This is a real freezer, and a worthy investment!

Douglas589 9/15/2026

I really like this freezer and was glad I found it at Lowe's when I went there to look around for a replacement for a chest freezer that went out. I got it located at home and the next day got it started up and it's been running really well and on the recommended setting for temperature, keeping the freezer at a constant temp right around zero degrees within a couple of degrees. It has three times the capacity of our old freezer and and is full featured, with the LED lighting, and of course it's frost free. Opening the door, I can see everything we have available right on the shelves - no more digging down to find what I want. It's going to be a whole lot easier keeping inventory and knowing what I need to get next time at the store.

garage freezer needs more shelves

littlepop 8/26/2026

I have only had the freezer for a week but so far everything seems fine. Impressed that it very quickly got to freezing temperature. I lost a freezer from lightning damage and needed a replacement. Thus far the only negative issue I see is the lack of adequate shelving/drawer. I would have placed a fourth shelf and a bottom basket/drawer if I were the manufacturer.

Not freezing well

samisam 8/5/2026

Ever since we got the Whirlpool Upright Freezer, it never froze to 0 degrees or lower. We did quite a bit of research via your Whirlpool website and it says that should be the temperature range. We even had an electrician come out and put in a separate outlet for the freezer, but to no avail, it still didn't freeze. We had to throw out a lot of food because it was freezing. That was just money down the drain. We are EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED in this appliance. We even went to the Whirlpool repair center to get a technician to come out and look at it. After waiting for two weeks, he finally came out and took less than 60 seconds to declare that it was fine!!!!! We are never buying another Whirlpool appliance again!!! Whirlpool and Lowe's where we purchased it were not very consumer friendly at all!!

Whirlpool Freezer Review

Eman1397 8/3/2026

Inside space capacity is perfect for our needs. Appreciate the shelving organization and slots in the door area for additional storage. We have had the freezer for a very short time. So far, it has remained frost free. Items freeze fast and remain at a constant temperature. Love the upright style for easy accessibility and how it keeps items from being buried under a pile of debris. My favorite part is how the door seals firmly upon shutting it closed - sort of a suction effect. Our last whirlpool freezer lasted 33 years. We trust the brand and have not been disappointed to date with our new purchase

It seems that this freezer seldom rest and runs about 20 hours a day. The space is good but am concerned about the motor burning out soon because it keeps on homimg.

Needs more shelves

Nancy323 8/2/2026

The freezer is working well and I'm satisfied. I am going to particularly like the light inside and also the larger capacity than the one that I had. This unit, however, only comes with three shelves. I bought two additional ones from an on-line retailer and that has fixed my problem completely. If you do buy additional shelves make sure that you measure because there are two different depths of shelves in there.

The shelving is not sufficient for storage There needs to be 1 or 2 more so you don't have to stack contents on top of other things. Also, from day one frost and ice have been forming along the bottom.

Just a basic model

Chaz 2026 7/22/2026

This will be the second identical model I have purchased over the past nine-plus years. It does the job in a frost-free setting. The shelves are made from metal wires that did NOT sit flat across the molded plastic side holders. The little rubber knobs that used to fit on the ends of the exposed wire ends are no longer part of the product. It looks cheap but NOT priced that way. I just switched out the wired shelves themselves and put the new one in the recycle bend. The repair cost of the last unit was almost what I paid for the unit when purchased new. The business model would now appear to be to "throw it away and get a new one". The other unit only failed once (nine years) and that repair quote was too much to pay (as previously noted).

Solid as a Rock

Roland A 7/22/2026

My original unit (> 5 years old) died and much to my surprise when I went shopping for a replacement the *exact same model* was still in production! I had been so pleased with the performance of the first one that I bought the same one again. You would think I would be annoyed that it died but in fact it died slowly (just could not get cold enough). A couple of bags of dry ice got me through the replacement and the new one was a no-drama replacement (the only change: improved feet/levelers). Basically these machines are rock solid. I hope Whirlpool never stops making them.

Frost free!

Shawn D 7/14/2026

We bought this mainly because it is frost free. We previously had an upright that was not frost free. It is quiet and works as expected. Only time will tell if it is reliable or not. It™€™s whirlpool, so we hope that it is, our old one was pretty old. The only negative that I have is that you lose space due to the bottom ™€œrack™€. It is difficult to stack things. Our old freezer had a wire drawer on the bottom. Due to the way the bottom is, can™€™t organize very well.

Compressor Bad Before Two Years

Randy45 5/6/2026

Bought new from Lowe™€™s June 2024. Compressor went bad May of 2026. Supposedly only has a one year warranty on all parts. I received a ton of emails asking for more money to extend warranty coverage but it should have already been offered by Whirlpool as they do not stand behind their products. Embarrassing product and company. I will never by from them again and suggest you don™€™t either.

We have other Whirlpool appliances in our home that have given us good service and decided to go with the freezer line for our replacement. We do like the quality and design of the shelves inside of the door. An exterior light to let you know the unit is running would be a nice feature. Over all we are happy with our purchase and would recommend it to our friends.

Internal Features That Are Lacking

JWH86 2/18/2026

The wife is not pleased with the shelf design. Frozen food tends to slide off the shelf without a lip on the leading edge. No slide out basked for the bottom to make the lower stuff more accessible. The previous upright freezer of the same size had both advantages that are noted above.
