Hello all-
I have a 2002 vintage Sears upright freezer.
Door gasket no longer seals properly at the upper left corner (top corner opposite the hinge)
It's as if the magnet has lost its pull so that the gasket in the corner does not snug against the body of the freezer
This makes it turn itself into an ice cave.
Door gasket, from what I have found online, is about $75 (OUCH)
How much have freezers' efficiency improved since 2002?
I don't have the money for a new freezer, but I also can't see putting $75 into a machine that is inefficient or near its life span
I welcome informed input, which includes any ways to make the old gasket "make do" for now
Thanks!
