We eventually went with the one that you have to defrost every so often because it keeps the food frozen long-term better (the frost free types come up above freezing on a cycle - that's how they stay frost-free; the frost melts. We've had it for 3 years now and still haven't had to defrost it although we may need to sometime in 2012...<br /><br />Enjoy Renaldo!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3469232416726264910.post-33991967276959479322011-12-01T12:57:29.243-05:002011-12-01T12:57:29.243-05:00I am so sorry you had to leave your first love! Yo...I am so sorry you had to leave your first love! You put so much time and energy into him! I don't know what we would do if we lost ours. I'm glad you rebounded quickly and found yourself a new man!Jodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05442310215979259623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3469232416726264910.post-8993298865942534322011-12-01T12:52:59.197-05:002011-12-01T12:52:59.197-05:00Barbie, I am so sorry.

Not for nothing, did you check with your homeowers insurance, you may have food spoilage to cover some at least to help with the cost of the new freezer. It is not an easy job giving them a cost on your own vegetables but it can be done. I know many policies in NY have that coverage.<br /><br />I no that is no help in the feeling of loss that I am sure you are going for.<br /><br />Renaldo is beautiful. I to have containers on all my shelves. I mark them with dynamo tape as to what is in them. It keeps them neat and easy to find what you want. Also make inventorying a lot easier.wildernesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03527833260038141710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3469232416726264910.post-52260501477365721562011-11-30T11:33:28.906-05:002011-11-30T11:33:28.906-05:00Oh, Barbie...how terrible!

Renaldo, on the other hand, muy hermosa!<br /><br />I lost some meat and fish (steak, talapia and salmon) moving it north last week. Not to the point of actual spoilage, at least the dogs can still enjoy it. I just wouldn't feel real safe serving it to humans. The fruits and veggies thawed just enough to stick together now that they are refrozen, but were still icy. I do feel safe eating them, thank heavens. Those fruits and veggies of our labors are the most precious, even though not the most costly.Annie*s Grannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04772261218172078099noreply@blogger.com
