Leaving your freezer door open to defrost is a traditional method, but it requires careful management. As the thick ice sheets melt, a large volume of water will drain out onto your kitchen floor unless you place thick towels around the base of the appliance and use shallow pans to catch the runoff. However, leaving the door wide open allows warm, humid ambient air to flood the cabinet, which can warp plastic interior liners if accelerated with excessive heat or cause significant mess.
