Â* Jill , it's nearly empty ! You might want to put some jugs of water
in there to freeze . They act as a thermal storage mass and will
moderate the temp swings and will probably lower the electricity usage
of the freezer . A full freezer actually uses less electricity ... ours
is stuffed with meat and a few bags of frozen berries/muscadines .
