I have an under-counter freezer in a small utility room off the kitchen. Someone goes in, takes out a pizza and bangs the freezer door shut on their way out (not a hard bang), no problems for years.
A few months ago I replaced this freezer. If you bang the door shut (not a hard bang) on the new freezer on your way out of the utility room it often bounces open and as you have left the room it might not get noticed for hours. Have had to use up or dump food on two occasions now because of this.
If you close the door gently, no issues.
All have been told to close the door gently and check it is closed, but this door will bounce open again.
A child proof freezer lock might be a solution, I am looking at a few on amazon.
I have never had this problem before with any freezer, and all have been used in the same way.
Is this a design fault ?
In this house anyway it is not fit for purpose, have I any comeback ?
