| Customer Reviews: Door design flaw September 4, 2010 Veronica Breza We purchased this freezer 14 months ago and had the same problem with the door but the curve in the track was on the bottom. The warranty techs recognized the problem immediately as inherent to the door and have ordered us 6 replacement doors during the 14 months. Half the doors shipped with a curve at the top or bottom upon receipt and the remaining curved within 2 weeks of installation. Last week had the techs visiting again and have to order another replacement door. Fortunately, Whirlpool extended our warranty for an additional year when the first replacement door was on back order for 6 months so we are still under warranty. This is apparently a problem with all the freezers of this model (on the initial replacement there were 255 customers ahead of us on the back order list for this part).
This freezer has a design flaw. July 7, 2010 J. Eppinette 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
The top of the freezer door arches down and causes the seal to follow this path. The frame of the freezer to which the seal is supposed to connect is straight across. The problem we are having is that the seal on the freezer door arches down beneath the metal frame of the freezer body and pulls away from it. This lets the cold air out, creates frost on the inside and causes the compressor to run 24/7.
Whirlpool has sent A&E out twice to fix it; each time they replaced the seal, and the last guy also put a new hinge on. This did not fix the problem, because the seal keeps following the downward arched path of the door. We have scheduled a third service call when the tech is supposed to call the Whirlpool tech line to see if it can be fixed. I have serious doubts about it, because it is a design flaw: a curved door and a straight frame.
If I could do it all over, I would NOT buy this freezer.
