Freezer Safety Notes
The Refrigerator Safety Act requires household refrigerators to have a door mechanism, usually a magnetic latch, that lets the door be opened from the inside, so older latch-door units carelessly stored or discarded where children can reach them remain a suffocation hazard.

Manual-defrost freezers use about half the energy of automatic-defrost models, but only if they are defrosted before frost reaches about a quarter inch. Source: ENERGY STAR - Freezers
