The product page states:

Power-on indicator light

Reassures you that your food is frozen and safe.

I had a different model chest freezer, with a very dim green light near the bottom It tripped the GFCI multiple times. After losing too much food, I bought a GFCI with an audible alarm when tripped. It never tripped again, instead the compressor stopped working and we still lost everything.

Here's the one I bought, great insurance for chest freezers:

Insurance policy - the alarm will sound if it drops below the Temp you set regardless of reason.

I've been thinking about getting a chest freezer, but for the garage. Does anyone have any experience with one of these in a garage? How does it perform?

Thanks!
My dad have one inside his garage. So far he never complained

Was looking for a Chest Freezer 5.0 cu ft and saw the price have drop to $119.99. around Labor Day this was $139.99. For some reason Best Buy have the best price comparing from Lowes/Home Depot even with my Military Discount still can't beat Best Buy Price.

Better off with a frost-free model. Since has Defrost drain
Provide a path for condensate water to flow. But for this price you can't go wrong. Wish the 3.5 model was cheaper. I just need smaller for my UTL room.

Wish there was a black model.
I wanted a black one too but I couldn't justify the price difference. I've seen a few at HD, Lowe's and Walmart online.

Is there anyway to check in store price online?
Not that I know of! Wouldn't it be nice if they were connected via something like Brickseek Stick Out Tongue

Good clarification. I made my call based on the photos that did not clearly show a light. Based on the manual, it is a blue LED beneath the temperature control dial.

Use an inkbird temperature controller if you want to use this at different temperatures. For my beer fermenting, I keep it at 70 degrees and the inkbird turns on and off the refrigerator to maintain a range in temperature. Also with the inkbird, you can turn this into a make shift refrigerator.

I bought this a year ago, for the original price of $180. It works great! extremely quiet and no issues. It does have the light on to let me know it's running. Great deal! Would get this deal if there is a need for me.

Does this thing have a regular 2 or 3 prong plug or do I need something special like a washer or dryer?

Online it was $270, and in-store in Southern AZ was $149 for all summer. Showed up one day in August and it was $129. If Costco still has it in store, probably will be $150. I looked at the Insignia 5.0 Cu Ft in store because it would fit where I want it but the Costco Hisense is just higher quality and bigger and cheaper than the $169 Best Buy price for the one listed at the time.
