Rated 3 out of 5 by from temperature alarm? junk! can't hear it ! the door ajar and temp alarm sounds like your notification for your cell phone battery needing charging - literally ! and only every 2 minutes, not continuous -this s/b something you can hear -this is NOT an alarm- it is a peep every 2 minutes -if you need the alarm features DO NOT BUY THIS BRAND you cannot hear it! -i bought this because my last freezer broke down and thawed out so i figured i would protect my food this time -MISTAKE! - -come on whirlpool - you have the technology to make and audible alarm actually AUDIBLE!

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Door ajar alarm is useless The door alarm piezo is I side the freezer and the sound is so faint you can’t hear it. Specifically bought this model for the alarm but found out the hard way (lost all content) that it is useless on this model. The freezer is also significantly louder when it runs than the previous (competing brand) freezer I had. Customer service not sure how loud the alarm should be and I would need to pay for service call to check.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great freezer (This review was collected as part of a promotion.) I bought a refrigerator and a stove/cooker 15 years ago and they work great so I bought a whirpool freezer and I am very happy with it. I will buy another refrigerator for sure in a couple months.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Convenient and spacious We’re so happy with this freezer. I was tired of leaning into my chest freezer trying to move things around. I looked at some of these with drawers but didn’t like the space restrictions drawers cause. No drawers in this one—love it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Love the upright Freezer (This review was collected as part of a promotion.) Great product, easy to see what is frozen. No more digging into the bottom of the chest style freezer to find long forgotten inedible food.

Hi, I was wondering what the difference is between Whirlpool stand up freezer model WZF34X16DW and WZF56R16DW? They appear to be the same according to the descriptions. Thanks

Asked by: Sooby
Hi Sooby, thank you for the question. As you rightly mentioned, the features are similar. The WZF34X16DW has the option of Reversible Door. The Freezer handle type are slightly different. For WZF34X16DW it is -Pocket Handle where as for WZF56R16DW it is Reach Through Handle . Hope this information is of help. Whirlpool Central
