Marathon Upright Freezer

Yes, this model uses a manual defrost system. You will typically need to defrost it once or twice a year, or whenever the frost buildup on the interior walls reaches about a quarter-inch thick.

Yes, its 28-inch width makes it a great fit for basements or garages. However, keep in mind that manual defrost freezers perform best in temperature-controlled environments, so ensure your garage doesn't experience extreme temperature fluctuations.

The 'Quick Freeze' shelves are designed to help your food reach freezing temperatures faster. This process helps preserve the texture and nutritional quality of your food by minimizing the size of ice crystals that form during the freezing process.

This unit includes a convenient defrost drain feature. You can place a shallow pan or tray under the drain to catch the water as the ice melts, making the cleanup process much cleaner and easier than manually scooping it out.

Yes, the interior is equipped with an LED light, which provides clear, bright visibility throughout the cabinet. This makes it much easier to locate items, even when the freezer is fully stocked.

Yes, in addition to the four shelves and four door rails, it includes a transparent freezer basket. This is particularly useful for keeping smaller, loose items organized and easy to grab.
