Sorry to hear that.

How bad?  Can't use it for dog food?

I had a huge batch of pepper stick in the freezer this last fall.  I would be hopping mad if I had that freezer quit on me.

What a bummer. I got a temp alarm off Amazon for about $15 and it works great, is loud and gets louder if not reset.

Gotta have an alarm.  I set mine at 25 deg. If it gets to that I have a problem.  I keep the readout on my fridge and check every morning.  With a hundreds of pounds of halibut, salmon, crab, clams, deer and elk I couldn't sleep if I didn't have it.

Definitely gonna be gettin an alarm. First time of hearing of an alarm. Im glad i didn't have my spring bear in there! Hopefully i will be able to fill my bull tag to replace the meat but it just weighs heavy having killed an elk and wasting a portion of it :bash:

Hey man, You didn't waste it. Freezer died.
