Ah, there's a topic for a whole 'nother post! The house didn't come with a freezer, but we figured, that's OK, we have a basement! We'll buy a small chest freezer! We like our freezer! (We need a freezer, given how much soup we make in large quantities and then freeze.) So we dutifully measured all the dimensions, and finally ordered it on Sunday and it was delivered on Wednesday.

Whereupon we found out we didn't measure all the relevant dimensions, namely, the doorway to the basement. It doesn't fit.

The freezer is now living next to the bathtub. It will be plugged in as soon as we get a splitter that fits into the nearest electrical socket, hopefully tomorrow.
