Do you know anyone CW? Who could tell you what it is without charging you? Then you know what to do next. Or try googling.

I have tried googling the fault and not found anything the same. Lots about defrosting from the top down, but not found anyone where its defrosted bottom upward.

Might see if I can spot one on freecycle, if I am lucky :)

We will have to eat everything in it as fast as possible and hope the freezer lasts for a bit longer unfortunately.

Tomorrow my DH and DS will be having sausages, I will be having fish, gonna use those woopsies up if it kills me.:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

I am really annoyed and upset. Just had to throw about £150 of meat in the bin.

Noticed my chest freezer was iced up at the top, despite my defrosting it about a month ago.

So decided to defrost it again. Emptied it but as I got near the bottom I realised everything was soggy and defrosted but things at the top were fine.

Had to throw away, a leg of lamb, several joints of beef, a few of pork, chicken, a side of salmon etc.

Strange how only the bottom 10 inches was defrosted though. Just couldn't risk eating any of it as no idea how long its been in this state.

So just in case the freezer goes completely, we are now eating out of the freezer only. I padded the bottom foot of the freezer with bubblewrap to raise things up a bit in the hope I can save the stuff that is still frozen.

Sorry to hear about that CW. I would be annoyed and upset too. That is a lot of meat and many meals. Sounds weird the way it defrosted the bottom but not the top.

I found this:

Frost

While frost buildup can create havoc with the evaporator coils in particular, you should also be aware that buildup throughout the compartment can block vents through which cold air is intended to flow. Resist the urge to defrost with an ice pick. Instead, relocate the food you have inside while you shut off the freezer, open the door and let the ice thaw naturally.

Do you think the vents at the bottom got blocked or something?

Hope you are winning at scrabble MT!!
