I know nothing about Pierco frames, but I do have a chest freezer.
It was free.

If you read the classifieds and the "for sale" weeklies, you will often find
ads that read something like:

        Chest Freezer - works fine.
        Moving - free to a good home.

If you have a pickup truck, or know someone with a pickup truck
or a Volvo wagon, you can have one for free.  These beasties are
heavy, so some slave labor (teenagers!) is also a big help.

The older units are much less efficient than the newer ones, so I'd
pass up anything more than 10 years old.
