My house caught on fire and we lost everything. We have video footage and picture of where the fire started and that the deep freeze was the cause of my fire.

Black and Decker BFE53, serial number 1006012261-01 Freezer failed, food thawed and spoiled. This particular model and serial number range was part of a recall that I only became aware of after the failure. Freezer was purchased at Walmart in Cedar Park, TX within the last year. Recall information: November 2, 2010 Release #11-028

The consumer unplugged the unit. The consumer states there was no burning smell or apparent smoke around his deep freezer. The consumer cut the cord in half and discarded the unit. The consumer indicates that the deep freezer was always in use and plugged in.

I purchased a deep freezer at Walmart a few years ago To store a lot deer meat my boyfriend would always hunt and have a lot of meat processed so we needed am extra freezer we bought one at Walmart for a very good price and it worked just fine for us until tonight my 6 year old curious son was sitting on the floor playing with his toys while his Dad cooked and all of a sudden I hear my boyfriend scream and yell out which scared me and I ran to the kitchen and my son was holding onto his wrist and rubbing it it was very red and irritated looking my boyfriend said a big poof of fire and smoke come up from the bottom so we unplugged it and looked around wrote down the serial number hoping we could get this fixed and I found out online there was a recall on this same model freezer so hopefully we can get a different model or a tech to come out and service this freezer. Just so thankful my son and his father was not seriously injured. MODEL FROM BLACK N DECKER #BFEQ50

Freezers defrost element caught on fire

The motor burned up on our Haier 7 cubic foot Chest Freezer, Model # HNCM070E, Serial #0709000186. We were gone for a week on vacation, when we got home the house smelled like rotten meat and when I went into the laundry room where we keep the freezer I heard a whirring noise followed by a electrical popping noise. I unplugged it and when I opened the freezer all the food was defrosted and had to be thrown. This model number was recalled, but not our serial number by Haier. We will be contacting them, but not sure what else to do.

As I went to open our Black and Decker chest freezer, I noticed that everything was thawed out. So I went and checked the setting turned it all the way up to 7 the highest it can go and it never turned on. This freezer is not even two years old yet and has only been moved from store to our home. We went and checked by the grate on the side you could smell the smoke and it was very hot. I have never had this happen to us before but with a family of 6 this was very economical for our family and now we dont know what to do since the freezer was filled with meat and other food. I unplugged the freezer and we have not tried to plug itback in since the smoke and the heat came from the side of it.

On July 16, 2017 i purchased a Kenmore upright freezer model #253.22042410. The freezer was delivered two days later on the 18th. Later that day my wife and I went to the garage to put some food in the freezer. When my wife went to open the freezer, it started tipping over on top of her. Luckily I was there to catch the freezer. If I had not been in the garage with her, it would have fallen on top of her and probably caused serious injuries if not worse. If it had been one of my grandchildren they would probably be dead. The problem was caused because the magnets holding the door closed were so strong that the door would not open, so when you pull on the door handle, you can literally pull the freezer over. I lowered the adjustment feet, to the maximum that they can be lowered so that the freezer now tilts backward and can't fall forward. However, the instructions state that the freezer must be leveled. I ignored the instructions for safety purposes. Once the feet were lowered the freezer would not fall forward, but it still will not open. When you pull on the handle to open the freezer, you can literally drag it across the floor. The magnets are that powerful. A 200 lb. freezer with food in it and you can drag it across the floor. I contacted customer service and they sent out a technician to look at the freezer and determine that it needed to be replaced, which it did. The second freezer was delivered on July 27th. The delivery personnel removed the old freezer and put it on the truck. They then unloaded and unpacked the the new freezer and put it into place in my garage, I tried to open the freezer and the same problem existed with the door. Also when they plugged in the freezer, it didn't run. They had to take the second freezer, load it back onto the truck and put the original freezer back, at least it runs. On Aug. 15, a month after the original freezer was ordered, Sears delivered a third freezer, and went through all of the same motions
