Adequate but battery compartment design is terrible & having these little pins so it locks on mounting bracket & keep the instruction because you have to pry it off the bracket to take down . Old design was so much better

This is a very small freezer but is sufficient for a few extras. The bottom is deep enough for 5 or 6 bags of frozen veggies, the top shelf is deeper which I use for items frozen flat in freezer bags ie .. mashed bananas for banana bread, veggies for soup, several layer nicely on the top. Don't know how fast frost develops, I put the less used items in it so doesn't get opened often. Said it weighed 44lbs, I lifted it easily so don't think so & unpacking was easy. So far, working fine. It is more expensive than a larger one for some reason, but didn't have room for more than this size

After buying a $40 Conair & it didn't last 6 months went for just a basic one with warranty so I can exchange at Best Buy if this doesn't last. They come with a manufacturer's warranty but it will cost more to send it in for repair & would still need a hair dryer til it came back.

I was told by Spectrum that the Roku Device is now compatible with their streaming service, that a contract has been signed between the two companies. Is this correct??

Can I use two remotes on one Roku player so my wife and I can both have one?

If you pair a second remote in the settings. Remote will only work with Roku device it's paired with. Tried it with my Roku stick remote & it worked but had to pair it back to use with Roku stick.

Will this maintain a constant temp? How long does it take to auto Defrost? and how far does temp drop to auto defrost?

Seems to maintain a constant temperature, I haven't had any issue so far.
This is a manual defrost freezer .. no frost build up yet, I keep extras in it so not opening it everyday which I assume helps keep frost at a minimum.
This is small, top shelf is full depth & not much height, but bottom isn't, fits about 6 bags of frozen veggies standing up.
I didn't have room for a larger freezer, but this works for those extras

If I currently have a Tracfone with triple minutes for life, will the triple minutes for life and my minutes balances transfer to the new Tracfone?

I don't believe so but the smart phone plans I find much better & different ftom the cards that we were use to buying .. check out the online purchase plans to see the difference.
You can buy minutes, text & data separately ... if you have plenty of all that you can opt to purchase 365 days of service for $49.99 online which I just did. Texts 1000 for $5, data 1gb $10, minutes I think are 500 for $10 ...
This phone I purchased for a friend & added the 365 days after he activated, he admits it's much better than his old flip phone.
