How many cubic feet is a Kenmore upright freezer model 25370812710?
Kenmore model 25370812710 is a top-mount refrigerator, not an upright freezer. Its exact cubic-foot capacity is listed on the model’s rating information and in the 25370812710 owner’s manual; use that value when comparing storage size or planning kitchen space.
We recommend using the model-specific documentation because Kenmore “253” models cover multiple sizes.
- Check the specifications section in the 25370812710 owner’s manual.
- Look for the model and serial plate inside the fresh food compartment (the manual notes it is located inside the refrigerator compartment).
- If you see a capacity listed in liters, convert to cubic feet (1 cu. ft. = 28.3 L).
- Use the full model number 25370812710 when searching specs; similar 253.7081* models can differ by size.
| Feature | Top-mount refrigerator (25370812710) | Upright freezer |
|---|---|---|
| Main purpose | Fresh food plus freezer | Frozen food only |
| Compartments | Two (refrigerator + freezer) | One freezer compartment |
| Typical capacity range | 14 to 22 cu. ft. total | 14 to 21 cu. ft. freezer-only |
Capacity affects food storage planning, energy use expectations, and whether shelves, bins, and accessories fit your needs. It also helps when ordering storage parts like a crisper drawer 240337103 or door bins.
- If doors do not seal well after moving the unit, inspect the gasket contact all the way around.
- Keep vents clear so cold air can circulate between compartments.
- If you are troubleshooting display or cooling issues, use the Kenmore 253 series french door refrigerator error codes guide as a starting point for Kenmore 253-series diagnostics.

What are the most common issues with 25370812710?
The most common issues we see with the Kenmore 25370812710 top-mount refrigerator are warm temperatures (often from airflow or defrost problems), frost buildup in the freezer, water leaking, noisy operation, and ice maker problems. Many of these symptoms trace back to a few serviceable parts and basic maintenance checks in the owner's manual.
- Freezer cold but refrigerator warm: restricted airflow, iced-over evaporator area, or a weak evaporator fan.
- Heavy frost on freezer back wall: defrost system problem (heater or defrost thermostat).
- Water under crisper or on floor: clogged/iced defrost drain.
- Buzzing, rattling, or clicking: fan blade hitting ice, condenser fan noise, or start components.
- No ice or small cubes: ice maker issue, temperature too warm, or water supply problem.
If your symptoms match, these are frequent replacements for this model:
| Symptom | Common part to check | Example part on this model page |
|---|---|---|
| Frost buildup, warm temps | Defrost heater or defrost thermostat | Refrigerator defrost heater 242044008, refrigerator defrost bi-metal thermostat 5303918634 |
| Warm fridge section | Evaporator fan not moving air | Refrigerator evaporator fan motor 242219204 |
| No ice | Ice maker not cycling | Refrigerator ice maker 241798231 |
| Door not sealing, moisture | Torn or warped gasket | Refrigerator door gasket (white) 242193206 |
- Set controls to the recommended mid-range settings in the manual.
- Make sure vents are not blocked by food packages.
- Confirm the doors close fully and the gasket seals all the way around.
- Clean dust from the condenser area and confirm the condenser fan runs.
- If frost is present, unplug and fully defrost; if it returns quickly, focus on the defrost system.
Temperature and frost issues can lead to spoiled food and extra compressor run time. Catching airflow, gasket, and defrost problems early helps the refrigerator cool correctly and reduces wear on major components like the compressor.
