Large chest freezers stratify: the coldest air sits at the bottom, so anything near the top of a full load runs a few degrees warmer. Rotating stock rather than stacking it in layers is the practical fix.
Owners can defrost, clear the drain and check the lid seal. If the lid no longer stays up, the hinge springs are tired, and while that is a mechanical repair rather than a refrigeration one it is still worth having done before someone catches a hand.
