It's acting like it seals the freezer door. You will hear the pump air sound after closing the freezer door. You can't open the freezer door right away once you close it. Wait for around 10 secs to open the freezer door again. I never read the manual, and maybe there's a way to close this functionality
Just stick your finger in the rubber gasket sealing around the door and push on it a little to break the air seal.

Never try that one, and why do I have to do it? My sealing still works, can't open unless I break it...

Quote from JesseE9088 :
Interesting, I wonder if it pulls a vacuum on the chamber to create a good seal for increased efficiency after closing. Thanks for the info!
In general, freezers do this because warm air enters it when the door is open. When you close it, all that hot air cools very quickly, effectively "shrinks," and causes a pressure imbalance for around 10 seconds. That is why it's hard to open and makes a sucking sound.

This is also explained pretty well in this Technology Connections segment [youtu.be]. I would be pretty floored if this simple chest freezer has some sort of active, gas-pumping, sealing technology. It's an Insignia after all, not a Sub Zero. But hey, maybe I'm wrong.

Interesting...this is my first freezer. If what you said is accurate, why fridge don't work the same way as freezer?

I got it for $212 after tax and delivery(free) back in 2018...talk about inflation. Other than that, it works great. No problem so far. The only catch is that you can't close the door and open it right away because there's "gas filling" after the door is closed.
I think when you close it fast, air push out and cause a vacuum seal. It happens on my magic chief chest freezer too. Workaround: close gently.

The Costco one is nice because it has drawers which allows the contents to be organized. The drawers do use up space, though, so that the stuff from my 7 cf chest freezer just fit. So less space than the 11 cf would indicate, but definitely more useful. I had a hard time with not knowing what was at the bottom of my 7cf chest freezer; can't imagine how it would be with a 10 cf chest.

The drawers are easily removable if you prefer drawers vs. shelves. I plan on using some drawers for loose things and removing the drawers on some levels and using the shelves for things that can be stacked (like a box of burgers, for example) in mine.

It does, but it's just much less of an effect, so you don't notice it. A freezer is around 0 degrees while a fridge is around 38 degrees. Assuming "normal" house temperature of 75 degrees or so, that means the temperature difference is around double with your freezer, so the air shrinks much more and causes a stronger seal.

I tried. Yea, I can open it right away after closing it gently. The vacuum sound is still there, just not that crazy anymore

We love the drawers, although it is an interesting idea to have a mix. We'd have to find shelves that fit though.

The shelves are already there, just take the drawers out.

Attaching a picture of a drawer removed for reference.
