Reviews

Exactly what I needed to fix my freezer!
September 02, 2021

Kenmore upright freezer wasn't freezing anymore. Lots of forum reviews and such made me think it was this thermostat causing the problem. It was!!! So, I spent $30 and have a perfectly functioning freezer again; awesome! Easy to install (10 mins and a screwdriver), and shipped to me in a few days. I couldn't be happier with the ease of result.
