I originally bought some other brand from Sams Club; that one died in less than a year and had beyond awful customer service when it came to getting a refund. I abstained from buying any other cooler but my dad recommended I try the Insignia branded cooler from BB since he's had it for nearly a decade and never once had an issue. I took a leap and yeah these things work flawlessly.
Dad's 5.1cu is still working to this day and my 10.2cu works as well without issue. I would actually recommend the 10.2cu over the 5.1cu just because with the 5.1cu it can be a pain to dig for something deep inside. With the 10.2cu you have space to move things to the left or right rather than up and out to get the stuff down below.

And yes it is necessary. Optimal food safe condition is zero or sub zero. 30f is not ideal for long term food storage so you don't want your freezer stopping just because the garage hit freezing temps.
Remember, 32f (0c) is just the freezing temp of water. Once you add in all the extras from food product the freezing point is technically lower than 32f. Microbes and other risks are much better prevented at 0f.

Of course the rate of frosting depends on how often you open it, the room it's in, and climate in your area.
Two guys brought freezer into my basement. They first unpacked a new and un-damaged unit outside. I inspected it outside. They brought it down using one flight of stairs and turned it on. Took about 10 min total. Drivers were professional and polite, wished me a good day with a smile.
