My Coldspot/Sears upright freezer is dying. *I am trying to figure out
how long we have had it. *30+ years is my wife's guess. *Model is
106.628440. *The original parts list does not have a date and we can't
find any sales slip or other info. * Any idea how to tell about how
old it is?


Were the operating instruction written in Sanskrit?


a new freezer will pay for itself in under a year in eletricity
savings, note chest freezers are far more efficent than upright
ones......

Not even at Ontario Hydro rates. Mabee in 3 years, if you are lucky.
Difference in operating cost between a 1984 spec 17 cu ft chest
freezer and today's energy star rated unit would amount to roughly $50
per year. PLEASE show me where I can by an energy star rated 17 cu ft
chest freezer for $50 - or even $150.

Calculated at $0.14 KwH
