Description

🌶️Kenmore 23 CU. FT. Chest Freezer — Heavy-Duty Vintage USA

Large Kenmore chest freezer, model 198.7192350, manufactured for Sears, Roebuck and Co. in the USA during the early 1980s. Finished in clean white enamel, this unit features a top-hinged lid, removable wire storage baskets, and durable steel construction. 

Cooling System:
¼ HP hermetically sealed compressor, 120V / 60Hz / 4.7A, operating on Refrigerant 12 (R-12). Mechanical cold-control thermostat — no electronic circuitry, sensors, or logic boards — providing reliable operation independent of voltage fluctuations or transient power surges.
The unit’s purely analog design makes it ideal for generator or off-grid use, where modern digital freezers often fail due to unstable power delivery.

Mechanical Integrity:
Built for serviceability — compressor, control, and relay assemblies accessible and replaceable with standard tools. Minimal component complexity ensures long-term operability even under variable environmental or electrical conditions.
This freezer’s analog simplicity and mechanical resilience make it well-suited for environments where reliability outweighs efficiency ratings: workshops, remote cabins, or backup cold storage systems.

Condition:
Good, fully functional, and tested. Exhibits scuffing, small dents, and light surface wear consistent with age and prior use. Interior is clean with intact baskets and working lid seal. Cosmetic imperfections do not affect performance. Please review all photos for details.

Dimensions:
36 in (H) × 62 in (W) × 28 in (D)
Approx. capacity 23 cu ft.
