Whats the best way to defrost?
You have to defrost the freezer the old fashion way...which means it does not do it on its own....you have to shut down the refrigerator in order for it to start melting...and then sop up any water with towels or bowls....key is to never let it get full of snow, so it's easier to do.....another way to defrost it, which I do...is to take a wooden spoon, never metal....and just scrape out the layers of snow that has formed into a bowl as you scrape, put the bowl inside and just scrape it into it.......if you do that once a month, it should keep the snow from too much buildup....I love my IGLOO it's perfect for just me and my condo....and I just redid my kitchen.....however after 2 years now, it's not cooling too well, which I have read other comments that this happens...
just an update....since I wrote my answer to the IGLOO fridge...IT IS NOW BROKEN....YUP....seems the compressor just went...after only 2 years...beware of this fridge...I no longer love it....or Best Buy where I bought the thing...no one wants to take responsibilty for this type of fridge...lots of complaints with the same issues...and they continue to sell this product without standing behind it....the manufacturer told me to ship it back to them in CANADA ! really !! so now I'm stuck as it sits broken in my kitchen...had to run out an buy a mini fridge....really unhappy now....STAY AWAY FROM THIS FRIDGE !! IT'S NO GOOD !!

SOURCE: Igloo chest freezer 7.2 cubic ft seems running all the time?
It may be on "superfreeze", if there is a yellow light, or it may be set for too low a temperature (try setting the thermostat down to 1 or 2). Check the condenser is clean, and fan working if it has a fan, Check lid is closing properly and the ambient temperature isn't too high.. Lastly, if all else working correctly, suspect short of refrigerant.
