My daughter put a small deep freeze in the back end of her escape. go git her girl and don't stop til you get it home. What a bargain.
wish I could find just a cabinet like that here in my area for that money. I won a slant 301 tonight on EBAY. never thought I would get it. Asked the seller to please pack carefully as out of the 4 machines I have gotten 3 were damaged because they didn't think the USPS would toss them they were so heavy. My little Spartan was coming out of the box yesterday. broke the bottom that the machine sets in.

They are heavy, but if worse comes to worse and you are handy with a screwdriver you could always take it apart! Where there is a will.......!

take the machine out before you load it. also the drawers. then it is not so heavy.
