Great, but you misunderstand the connected alarm. It would have come through on your phone.

Apologies. The new freezer has that facility as it has wifi connection. If you a nerd you can check the energy consumption every day. Don't see the point of the latter as what can you do about it? Switch off the freezer? LOL!
You can do something to help reduce the freezer's power consumption, in particular now you have moved to an upright model, by the number of times it is opened; that is try to manage visits so you get out or put things, say today and tomorrow's item s in the same visit or/and restock during a removal visit. Unlike chest units the cold air falls out. The power consumption changing can indicate it is not closed properly or the seal is aging, both issues become more sensitive with the upright models.
There could be issues with a decent WiFi network signal in a remote garden shed? In a similar challenging network signal case I have had to adopt a "powerline", network over mains connection. Despite warnings these can have issues on "spurs" [as opposed to "ring" mains}, mine works a treat with 50 metres of extension.
I think if your going to be obsessive about how many times a day you open and close your freezer door you have too much time on your hands.
I rarely touch the freezer section as it is so jam packed I can never get the trays to slide back into place. Other than to find the Magnums in the front of the top tray that’s my lot.
Panic stations again! Our grandson was able to put our food into the refrigerator at his work at the local pub, but this was because it was Christmas eve and they had the room. However they are getting a lot of food deliveries today in preparation for the new year festivities and we may need to collect the food, but got nowhere to store it.
When we ordered the new freezer, we were given dates and times for delivery and we selected today for a pm delivery. You pay a bit extra. The delivery company sent us an email this morning stating delivery tomorrow.
Problem tomorrow is a medical appointment, Friday we are away and Monday is a holiday. Grandson may be able to store the food for a day or so, but not 6 days.
Option seems to be cancel order altogether and go down to Currys and buy a small deep freeze which will fit into the back of the Jeep?

Are you sure you home insurance doesn’t include deterioration of food following freezer breakdown?
Another option might be to allow the food to defrost, cook it .Store in the fridge for a few days then into your chosen new freezer?

Our home insurance does include cover for loss of food, but at the moment the stuff is still frozen. Too much meat to cook and eat when I am already still stuffed from Christmas and leftovers. LOL!
I will probably cancel the medical appointment and hope they can see me again within the next 3 months.
Can't a neighbour house sit tomorrow? Better if you have a time slot.
Or you, advise courier that particular neighbour has access to the property?
In our case we would not be forgoing a medical appointment of any substance, that I would prioritise.

A good idea, but a bit complicated as the courier also needs to take away the old freezer. Daughter is out all day tomorrow and unsure of giving anyone the run of the house.
At the moment easiest option annoyingly is to cancel medical appointment. Not sure why they option appointment days and times if they cannot fulfil them?
We are also having a microwave delivered from the same supplier, but different courier and that has been confirmed as happening this morning.
A long shot but you can hire freezers short term. Or bridge your local butcher who will have lots of room since the Christmas rush
The one is working due to new Year rush and other is with parents. I have cancelled the medical appointment and claiming back the extra paid for the delivery.
Freezer arrived yesterday and assembled it. Collected farmed out food from pub and everything okay now. Although the upright is supposed to have a higher capacity than the previous chest deep freeze, we struggled to get everything into the upright even though the chest freezer was only 3/4 full. Anyway all sorted now and happy wife.
