    Purchased a 20 cf Frigidaire upright garage ready Freezer from the Home Depot. After a little over a year, the Compressor stopped working. This caused the loss of my frozen food. Neither Frigidaire nor Home Depot wanted to take responsibility for this lemon since we didn't buy the "extended warranty" which I may add was during the pandemic. We paid for a technician but he couldn't fix it due to the highly flammable butane used in this freezer instead of the usual freon. Sooo, here we are with a piece of junk sitting in the garage. Frigidaire said the Compressor should last at least 7 years but didn't care that they and Home Depot sold us a lemon. Apparently the Implied Warranty does nothing as far as Home Depot is concerned.

    Our experience has been nothing short of a nightmare, and I implore you to take immediate action to rectify this situation. To begin with, our initial appointment with a technician was an absolute disaster. The technician was a no-show, no call, without any prior notification or communication. This lack of professionalism was deeply disappointing. After a week's delay, the technician finally appeared, but by then, the inconvenience caused was already significant. The technician diagnosed the issue and ordered the necessary part for the repair. However, it has now been a whole month, and the part is still stuck in the shipping status. Every time I try to reach out to customer service at 1-800-944-9044, I am directed to overseas customer support. Regrettably, these interactions have been far from helpful. Each time I explain my situation, it feels like I am starting from scratch, as if there is no record of my previous conversations.

    As of now, my freezer and fridge remain in disrepair, and I am left in the dark about the status of the parts and the anticipated resolution timeline. The lack of communication from both the company and the technician has been incredibly frustrating. I find myself in a position where I have no idea when my freezer and fridge will be fixed, and no one seems to have any concrete information to provide. In this age of advanced communication, it's disheartening to experience such a profound lack of transparency and accountability. We are still waiting!

    I purchased a new freezer in September 2022. About 2 1/2 months ago the alarm started going off about every 30 seconds. I was unable to find anything myself and so called the customer service, which is a joke, and they made an appointment for a repair man to come out. The guy who showed up looked at it and left saying he ordered a new gasket for it. When that came he came back. Put in the new gasket and said to give 24 hours for the alarm to stop going off. It never stopped so I called yet again and the same guy came out. Put in another gasket and replaced the light which is where the alarm indicator is. Now my freezer is worse than ever in that there is frost at the bottom of the door plus things in the door are not freezing. So if the freezer was working properly that alarm should be going off since there is obviously a temperature issue.

    Once again I called the customer service and they would only say they will make an appointment for me again and that I cannot request a different technician or company to repair it. For the last three appointments which were all confirmed I received no call and no show. When I called the customer service all they will do is make another appointment and they say that the technician said there is no issue with my freezer. I called Home Depot and one of their reps actually came to my house and took photos of the problem and acknowledge there is indeed something wrong with the freezer where they contacted a Frigidare rep in my area of Nampa Idaho and they were supposed to call me to assist. This was last Monday. No call at all.

    Do not buy this product. You will not get any customer service at all other than an automated this is what you get and there is no recourse. I now have to continue to try to get my freezer fixed. I intend to file a complaint with the Idaho Attorney General’s office and anywhere else I can think of. This is absolutely unprofessional. Dishonest. Just crappy product and Customer Service.

    I bought. Freezer Frigidaire model FFUE2022AWO. From the get go it’s frosting especially on top two shelfs. Can’t reach their customer service but once in a blue moon and no help to them! So I called for a service man, locally, he said the door inside is bent near the seal. Nothing we did but many come that way. I hate Frigidaire and will never buy or recommend their products. Now it’s costing me 300 plus tax to get a new door. I will use GE from now on. I finally reached FRIGIDAIRE customer service today and he even suggested I buy the door from Amazon and it would be cheaper. There is nothing wrong with the seal. It’s the inside part of the door that is bent and allows air inside. Do not buy Frigidaire.

    Tried for 3 years to get freezer fixed. Stopped running 2 yrs 5 months ago. Repair service has attempted to repair at least three times. Frigidaire cannot fix their own product. Had to buy competitor's product to get a working freezer. Frigidaire keeps telling me to get service repairmen to fix, but last one said it would never work. Contacted Frigidaire, they said to get serviceman to repair. They'll not honor their 3 yr extended warranty. And continue to give a run-a-round. Don't buy Frigidaire products they are no good.

    Bought 3 stand up freezers (16 feet) early 2021, built in October 2020. Compressor in 1 broke down, cost of replacement almost as much as buying a new freezer. Unfortunately warranty is only 1 year (My mistake. Should have checked before as I would not have bought with such a flimsy warranty). Frigidaire takes the view (legally correct) that it is not their problem. My recommendation, stay away from products of this company, clearly they have no confidence in their products and will not stand by them.

    About a year I go my family and I purchased the model. Above within one month it went into this automatic defrost and the temperature will not come back. Called repair guy. Got a new compressor. 1 month later once again it did the defrost, temperature does not come back. This time we got new coils and something else. It worked again for a two more months. Had another $2,000 worth of meat in it and it goes into defrost again and doesn't come back. They said it was a motherboard. Well here we are after one year and we are having a yet another defrost dilemma. It done it again and won't come back. The freezer is a lemon. Do not purchase. I repeat do not purchase.

    We purchased the column Freezer in 2021, and immediately had leaking issues, which was due to a cracked hose inside the insulation and could not be fixed so we were issued a replacement. 2 replacements has noticeable scratches on the front door when we received them and a 3rd replacement attempt was so bad that it never left their warehouse. We have been arguing with Frigidaire for nearly 18 months now, and were recently told that their policy has a maximum of 3 replacement attempts, and after that point, all they can do is issue a credit. So somehow the company has the inability to successfully deliver a functioning new condition freezer, but because of their ineptitude, the customer has to suffer on a product we paid for. We will never buy another product from Frigidaire.

    We purchased this unit 11/18/2020. From the first day it was very noisy when it ran. Now for the last few days it runs continuously and will not shut down. We have been manually adjusting the temp ourselves. I called Frigidaire and they will not offer any help for a 2 year old unit. They did offer to call a repairman of their choosing but after questioning we found out we will have to pay for it. This unit was under $300 so repair seems like a waste of money on something so new. Seems from reading other reviews this company produce disposable products. We will never purchase another Frigidaire product again. Run from this company!

    Bought this unit (20 CuFt upright freezer) and slowly filled it as confidence increased. Then suddenly it defrosted entirely over a couple days and lost well over $1200 in food. Have now tried for 3 days to reach the company but every attempt (up to 18 tries now) have resulted in "Sorry we cannot take your call at this time"! It was an expensive unit, was delivered on time but now I have a boat anchor with no way to have it repaired as the company is unresponsive and using an after market repair company does not make sense on a unit only a couple months old that probably will fail again!

    Out thousands of $$$ by a shady fly-by-night outfit! Very ANGRY Home Depot sells this crap as I have now seen dozens of reviews and similar circumstances so this is apparently a know problem - the HD reviews were all positive at the time I made the purchase suggesting they edit reviews only to show positive ones to sell more of this JUNK. HD will not do anything - typical NO SERVICE AFTER THE SALE. Sell disposable junk so it has to be replaced - but after only a few months for expensive items use then failing causing further personal financial loss is unacceptable! I would strongly suggest no one ever buy any product made by this company as they apparently have become scam artists and offer no support for high priced crap!

    We purchased a 20cf upright Frigidaire freezer, model number FFUE2022AW on 1/7/22 at an Electronics Express store. Freezer broke around May 6th 2022, it stopped cooling. Contacted the Electronic Express store where it was purchased. Since it was past 30 days, we were referred to Frigidaire warranty. We contacted them to set up a repair appt. They stated after 3 repair attempts, we could request a refund or replacement. Between May 16th to Sept 1st, we have had 10 scheduled repairs visits with 3 different repair companies. Each time the freezer would work for 3 days and stop getting cold. It lasted a month after the final repair until it broke again on Oct 3rd 2022.

    We have contacted Frigidaire numerous times to resolve this by requesting a refund for the defective unit. We keep getting delayed and given the run around in an effort to run out our warranty. The freezer only worked 4 months and has been broken and unusable for the last 6 months. In our last call to Frigidaire, the representative lied and told us we were approved for a refund but emailed me paperwork for an exchange with the store (I have a recording of the rep blatantly lying to me). We contacted the store and were told they only offer store credit as a favor to Electrolux/Frigidaire. They will not honor their warranty and give us a refund.

    There are numerous complaints online for their freezers and refrigerator having the same cooling problems and my model freezer is cited several times. These units should be recalled. We have lost hundreds in food and the last 6 months have been a nightmare. The common problems I keep seeing is the loss of coolant, leaks with their closed system cooling. The fact that many of these units don't last the first year is a red flag. They made dealing with their warranty department a huge hassle. This company is a scam and they are currently in a recall for their fridge models. There should be a class action against them for knowingly selling defective products. I'm beyond sick with dealing with them. All we want is a refund and to end our relationship with Frigidaire forever.

    I purchased the 20cCF upright freezer in July 2020. It was on backorder and wasn't delivered due to COVID until 10/26/2020. I was remodeling by the time it was delivered and didn't even get to plug it in until December 2020. I found all my food thawed at the end of July 2021. I called an appliance repair company who came out early August and said the compressor was "dead". I called Frigidaire to see if it was under warranty, since the repair would be basically the cost of a new freezer. However, because the freezer was over 1 year old from date of purchase, it was no longer under warranty. I did not have the extended warranty. However, I was told they would provide a 'one-time courtesy' for the repair, to include parts and labor and Frigidaire sent out another local appliance repair company to my house (not the one I previously used).

    The repair man confirmed the compressor was "dead". I assumed he was there to actually FIX the freezer. Instead, he said he had to go back to order the compressor. He called me later that day to tell me the compressor was no longer available and therefore the freezer could not be repaired. After much back and forth and months later, Frigidaire offered 40% off a new purchase. That doesn't help the fact I am out so much money; the cost ($1200) for the freezer, $100 for the repair man I called, now Frigidaire refuses to cover the cost of the repair man THEY sent to my house!

    When I called, I was told the "one time courtesy" only included PARTS! I tried to deal with Customer Service (over 75mins), including the ONLY supervisor I was allowed to speak to, saying there was no one higher than herself... and hearing over and over again "Sorry, there is nothing we can do". How can a billion dollar company not stand behind their products and parts. Furthermore, the Frigidaire website would not allow me to post this exact review, stating the following: "Mention a competitor, Includes personally identifiable information,. Mentions shipping complaints (to me, it was a detail worth mentioning due to delay in shipping and COVID - nothing to do with Frigidaire or the freezer), Including inappropriate media, Contains a URL, Is vague or needs more detail, Includes profanity."

    I had purchased a brand new freezer (Frigidaire) August 11th (one month ago). It was completely defrosted one day and we threw out EVERYTHING. A service rep informed me that the warranty only covers repairs and food loss is our loss. If you cannot provide food loss compensation to a 1 month old unit, what does that say about your products? Additionally, while attempting to argue my case a "supervisor" (which took me a good 20 min to finally be connected with) she said "goodbye" and hung up two min ago. Horrible service.

    I'm a neck cancer survivor and because of radiation treatment to my neck I have no salivary glands. Also from the radiation (equal to about 26,000 X-rays) my sense of taste has changed. Water now tastes like saltwater and trying to drink it actually makes me sick. I have no trouble with ice so consequently I use a LOT of it. Our refrigerator ice maker stopped working last year so we bought an Igloo countertop ice maker thinking it made sense as Igloo is obviously well known for their coolers. It was okay although the filter kept clogging requiring taking it out and cleaning it once a week and mold would grow if it was off more than a few hours.

    Anyway last month after only 9 months it quit working so after some research I bought a Frigidaire model EFIC117-SS countertop model from Walmart for $108. I'm astounded by how much better this is than the Igloo was even when it was new. It's faster, makes much better ice pellets and puts out much less heat than the one we replaced. Granted we have only had it for two weeks but I also bought a two year unlimited warranty for $18 additional. If anything happens I will update but thus far we are extremely happy with our purchase.

    I purchased my Frigidaire freezer in 2021, it was bigger and more expensive than I wanted to spend but because of the pandemic they were limited options. When the freezer was delivered shut up I filled up with product and within 30 days it broke down. I contacted Frigidaire after 10 days somebody showed up replace the fan and I was told this is a common issue with these freezers and they knew it when they put them in production. Four months later the freezer went down again. When the repair company came out he said a common product was that the master boards go out and that’s the only fix that’s going to stop the problem are they going to do an auto defrost. They sent me the kit. They told me to install it myself or wait another three weeks for them to come back and do their job.

    30 days ago the freezer went down again so three times I have lost hundreds of dollars of food and the only thing the company did was offer me a $200 visa card for my problem. I had to get an extended warranty on it and because I did that they forget all the repairs and all other problems. You start over 100% with this company, so the fact that it broke down and their rise this is the first time. The people that come and fix it don’t carry parts so I’m on my third week of waiting for the part to be shipped to me then I need to call the company to come out and fix it again while Frigidaire will do nothing. Then I’ll call themselves Electrolux. This company is the worst company I’ve ever dealt with. Their products are junk. The repairs are junk and all I know is I am out $1000 for a freezer and probably close to $1000 in food. Do not buy Frigidaire products.

    We looked up the possibe cause, and fix, of the frost which has been developing on the ceiling and door in the top right corner. We were surprised to find that others were having the same problem but there is no real fix. The seal seems solid and everything looks OK. We bought the freezer as a scratch and dent. It ran fine for almost 2 months until this happened. Our old freezer lasted 30 year and was also an upright. Very glad we did not buy this one at full price. The others with the same problem were purchased new. Some reviews indicate they attempted to repair the problem, without success.

    We bought a upright freezer from Home Depot in December of 2020. By February of 2021 it quit freezing. We had a hassle getting a warranty repair on it and took 2 months to get a repairman to look at it. Then it took another 10 months to get the parts to fix it. The original door was warped from the factory and when we got a new one it was dented from shipping. So for 10 months no working freezer and had to store our food in a old freezer from 1980, which is rusty and still working, I'm glad I saved it out behind the wood shed instead of taking it to the landfill. Now after 5 months of working the great Frigidaire doesn't freeze again. Home Depot won't reimburse us for selling a ** product and says it's Frigidaire product and they won't reimburse us either. I think everyone that has one of these Frigidaire freezers should make a class action lawsuit against Frigidaire and get reimbursed the full amount for buying a ** product that doesn't work!

    I bought this freezer from HD last year on 12/22/20. Shortly after, the interior lights stopped working - this was the first service call. The technician came out and discovered a switch went bad and replaced it. The unit was running well for a few months but then during July we started to hear the unit beeping and the LED indicator light continuously flashed. I kept trying to close the door to make it stop beeping but that didn't work.

    In August 2021, the door started to show signs of frost along the door seal, and the interior was thawing out. I called for support but Frigidaire couldn't get a technician out for over two weeks. By this time, we lost all of our food. Frigidaire would not pay for the food we lost even though it was several hundred dollars worth. The technician came out, made a repair to the door and said to keep an eye on it. This was repair #2, all within 8 months of purchasing the freezer. A week later, I had to call the technician back out, for repair #3. I was informed we have a bad door and need a new one. The lead-time is/was 18-20 weeks! They told us to turn off the unit and wait.

    It's Oct. 2021, almost a year since purchasing this unit. We've had for the unit for less than one year and haven't been able to use it for more than a few months at a time before it breaks. Frigidaire won't send us a replacement unit but they constantly send emails to upgrade our factory warranty! Let me get this right-you won't stand by your products and want me to pay more money for a defective unit? On top of that, we're going on service call #4 and that won't guarantee it will be fixed.

    They should honor their products and warranty and swapped out this lemon. Completely unacceptable for a $1,000 freezer. I tried to post a review on their website and of course they blocked it. What are they trying to hide with my review. Isn't that the point of reviews, getting consumers' feedback on actual issues and then going back to your product team and fixing your products?

Now I've complained to electrolux/frigidaire customer service about my freezer still not fix, they will hang up a phone in you and leave you to limbo what's their next approach gonna be. Plus you need to be in the phone line for an hour before you can get hold of these people, and still they don't have any answer on how to resolve my freezer issue. TERRIBLE, no way I'm buying from them again. If you want some headache and money lost from buying a crappy appliance, then buy electrolux/frigidaire brand.

    Do Not Buy. This Frigidaire upright freezer has been the worst I have ever had! Bought in June 2020 and in July 2020, it stopped working. I lost food and hours later after unplugging and plugging it in it started up again. Why, I have no idea? Happened again in November of 2020! Lost food again, had to distribute food throughout my neighbourhood to save what we could. Thank goodness for good neighbours! Repairman came out replaced motherboard and sensor. He said little can go wrong with these freezers. I beg to differ.

    Forward to now, September 2021 and it's happened again. Freezer stopped working and food thawed! Again I saved what I could. Frigidaire expects me to wait almost 2 weeks before they could get someone out to look at freezer again! That is unacceptable! Frigidaire expects you to have 3 calls before they deem this freezer a dud, my words not theirs!!! (CSR says that is their protocol). It is a dud! Then it would take another 10 days to replace if it were deemed unrepairable.

    I have been more than patient! I finally called Costco and explained the situation and said I am tired of babysitting my freezer, losing food, finding storage for my freezer food and that this was unreasonable to expect me to keep doing this. It wasn't right that I would need to keep relocating my food until someone figured out again, what was wrong with it!!

    Costco has been great. Said I should not have had to go through all of this and took it back! Unfortunately it was replaced with a newer model (even though this freezer is only a year old) of this one and I am really skeptical. However the first sign of a thaw again and it goes back and I am done with Frigidaire. I had to take this freezer in order to have one and get my food back from my neighbourhood. Like I said I am very leary and skeptical but at this point no choice. Do not purchase this freezer would be my opinion and suggestion.

    I am reviewing this freezer on this forum because I wrote this on the Frigidaire reviews since they wanted my review and was told, and I quote from their email back to me, "Our staff has read your review and values your contribution even though it did not meet all our website guidelines. Thanks for sharing, and we hope to publish next time!" I said nothing in my review derogatory or inaccurate. This happened to me and it is what it is. I suppose they only want good reviews. That's not what reviews are about! Frigidaire is difficult to contact and worse for support!

    We purchased the 20cu ft Frigidaire freezer because we bought a 1/2 of farm fed beef and pig to put in it. We received the freezer and turned it on with no issues. We left to go on vacation for 1 week came back and found all of our food was thawed and warm. We called the store where it was purchased and they sent a service person out and found that the freezer had started working again and even froze the water that was left in freezer as test. The service tech said the issue was the door was warped and needed to be replaced.

    Since that point frigidaire was contacted and notified of our loss of 1500.00 in meat and their response was, "We can only give you 200.00." So 2 issues happened. The freezer quit working cause the meat to spoil and then refroze which if we hadn't caught it would have caused food poisoning. I would not recommend this product to anyone and we did not accept a replacement. The store we purchased the Freezer from Gladly returned our money. That was the only positive that came out of this.

    Found out there is recall on this unit. Parts on backorder. Customer service is overloaded. Must call back often to even get in queue for a call back. Two weeks and still no freezer. Model # FFFU20F2VW0. Lamp went out also. It's a $50 item? Got them so send me a replacement and it doesn't work either.

    We bought a new freezer in April 2021 and didn’t receive it until the middle part of May. As of July it started have problems and making a very loud noise and getting worse day by day and getting louder. I tried for weeks to get ahold of Frigidaire and was on hold forever and then would try back and the answering machine would say due to high call volumes they couldn’t take my call and I would get hung up on. I have $2000 worth of meat in there and I’m afraid it’s going to go out. I tried to write a review the other day and was told it couldn’t be filed because my problems weren’t adequate.

    I would not advise anyone to buy this Frigidaire freezer, or any of their products. The freezer was bought from Home Depot at the end of April and started having problems 1 week ago. Customer Service was called, they heard the bad noise it was making, became alarmed and said they would get right away. They could only get one 2 days away, on Friday morning. Thursday afternoon, I get a call that the repair person cannot come until the following Wed. When asked why, they said Frigidaire contracts repair companies and when they, Frigidaire, contacts the repair companies dispatch for the appt Frigidaire then does not get the paperwork to the repair company in an efficient, so the appt could be lost, which it was.

    The freezer went out entirely Friday night. So, we were stuck over the weekend when Frigidaire is closed (not sure I know of any other large national company that cannot be reached over weekends). The specs on the freezer indicate if the freezer is full and you don't open the door, the food will stay frozen for 48 hours. Yesterday, Sunday morning, I had a feeling I should finally open the door and check. Some of the food was already starting to smell, so that aspect of the freezer is not accurate. The meat was still frozen, but everything else was not. Luckily, I opened it, so didn't lose the meat. I loaded as much food into our refrigerator freezer and refrigerator, but it does not fit all of it. The rest is in the freezer still with ice packs.

    In calling Frigidaire this morning and they said there is nothing they can do to get someone out sooner, or compensate for lost food or hassles, because they are not responsible for the contractors they hire. That is classic "passing the buck". It is their product, and their policies, that cause their inefficiency and terrible customer service. That is why I say don't buy Frigidaire at all because it is not just the product, it's their entire customer service and processes that don't work. And, Home Depot takes no responsibility either for appliances after 48 hours. Their return policy is 90 days for just about everything else.

    I purchased a Frigidaire upright freezer in Jan. 2021. In April the fan was making a lot of noise like it was hitting something. I called Frigidaire since it was still under warranty. Got a call back from Electrolux the parent company. I was told to troubleshoot it myself first then call them back. I could not get to the fan without taking off the back panel inside so I called back. A serviceperson came out a week later, took off the panel and said that ice had built up by the fan and behind the temp control knob. He needed to get parts to add to the area. He took the ice off and said it will probably happen again until he can fix it. He ordered the parts and they were on back order.

    It took another 3 weeks to get the parts then several days to get an appt. for the guy to come back. He installed the parts and made the drain hole bigger. Now it's July 13 and it happened again. This time I took off the panel myself and there was once again ice. I removed it but it will happen again. This is a design flaw. I would not recommend buying this product.

    Let it be known.... Never ever order or purchase a Frigidaire appliance!!! They have the worst customer service dept ever... They will not even accept phone calls because they are too busy and their website is completely unusable. The freezer broke down after less than 3 months. And they won't fix it even though it's on warranty!!!!

    Have had this freezer for about 10 years. It has been such a good freezer and never has given us trouble. We bought it at Lowe’s and had it delivered. I love the fact it beeps if the door is ajar. Leaves us scratching our heads till we find out where the beeping is coming from as this happens so seldom.

    This is an upright freezer with coolant coils under every shelf. It stays very cold and freezes new food quickly. I've had it 7 years now and it is trouble free, unlike the ever-cheaper made chest freezers. Highly recommend.

    Needed to replace a 25 year old, old faithful chest freezer - too expensive to buy old freon anymore. Went to the orange big box mart knowing which model and price I wanted (a 25 ft3 chest that was on sale). Because of COVID, they were out of stock on the sale item but they did have a 27 ft3 chest that was a floor model they would sell me at a discounted price. The unit works well and is much more thrifty on electricity.
