that's a bummer, know how ya feel, It happened to me last year, we were able to save everything though. caught it in time, and ran down to Lowe's and bought a new freezer.

I went hunting up north and ended up with two deer it was worm so I left them in the freezer. And about 2months later a tree fell on the line ruined all the meat[:@]

That sucks!Last year, afriend of mine's daughter went down to the basement to get something out of the freezer and left the door open. Everything in the deep freeze spoiled. I'm always worried that I will openmy freezer door and find that my 30 yr. old freezer has finally bought the farm. I've been lucky so far, knock on wood.

With an expected lifespan of 15 years your freezer has already gotten twice what it should have , I'd start shopping soon .

Our freezer is only a couple of years old and gets used daily , my only complaint is that at 7 cubic feet it's just too small .

That happened to me a few years back but in ND we just took the stuff outside and kept it fozen until we got a new freezer.
