For a freezer, reliability and good service are most important.  Then
such things as cost of operation and ease of cleaning come next.  We have
a Whirlpool Freezer which has a little relay that fails about every 5
years on a Friday.  We call Whirlpool Service and they send someone
out on Monday to fix our Freezer.  This seems almost unbelievable,
but it has happened 3 times.  On the other hand, Sears and our local
appliance store repair freezers within a couple hours.
