Several weeks ago, our freezer went out.  Unfortunately, it was about a week after I had remembered there is such a thing as a freezer alarm – and the night before pay day, when I would have actually ordered one.  We lost almost everything in our freezer, which was no small loss (financially or time-wise).  Well, the freezer kicked back in, so we thought we’d discovered the problem.  But I bought my freezer alarm!  lol

In the week that we’ve had it, this little gadget has already paid for itself.  The night before last, our freezer died for good.  Thanks to the alarm, we didn’t lose any food, because we knew right away.  It goes off when the freezer reaches 15 degrees Fahrenheit (It’s recommended to keep a freezer set at 0.), so you know that the freezer is not functioning properly, but things are not already thawed.  Some reviewers complained that the alarm was too quiet to be of any use if it isn’t in the main living space, but my freezer is in my carport, and I heard it from the kitchen.  Granted, the interior door to the kitchen was open; just the storm door was closed.  But on a full battery, the alarm should sound for three full days, which is plenty of time to have an opportunity to walk by (or go to get food out!) and hear it.  And in the meantime, it won’t drive the neighbors nuts.  🙂

This inexpensive little freezer alarm definitely works for me!
