Why Buy a Chest Freezer?

For those who wish to cut down on food waste and get the most value from the bounty of their harvest, the chest freezer is a must. This basic model has plenty of space and is inexpensive to run, plus its lid is balanced and won't fall down on your hand when you grab an unintentional pizza.

Capacity

Although they aren't as popular as upright freezers, chest freezers are a viable option for families who require extra food storage space. They are typically located in basements, garages or utility rooms. They come in different sizes, from 100 litres up to 500 litres. Top-loading, they have a lid which opens wide for easy access. Some also have an additional storage basket on the top for storing smaller and less frequently used food items.

The size of your freezer is contingent on the amount of storage you require and the number of household members. You should allow 2.5 cubic feet for each household member. Also, you should consider the amount of frozen food items you have. A larger freezer is recommended in case you plan to freeze large pieces of food or bulk ingredients.

If you're primarily concerned about cost we suggest the LOGIK L198CFB20 due to its value and space-saving features. It is available in a chic gloss black finish and has the capacity of 93-litres. This makes it a great match for modern kitchens. It also has a counterbalanced lid that won't hit you on the head when trying to retrieve a buried pizza slice. It's not equipped with many convenience features such as a fast freeze feature as well as a digital display.

Energy efficiency

Chest freezers are commonly utilized in garages and utility rooms to store food items. This is especially beneficial for those who cook in large quantities and have lots of food. Thanks to their sidewall insulation built-in, they hold cold temperatures very well and use less energy than upright freezers. They can keep their contents frozen up to three days if they are not connected. This is why they are a great choice for power outages or moving homes.

We have several chest freezers that are A+ assessed for energy efficiency. We also have frost-free models. It's worth noting that these freezers typically cost some more than defrosted manual models, but they also reduce energy consumption and make more ice less often.

If you're looking to cut down on running expenses, check for a freezer that is made with the green HFC-245fa refrigerant. This information can be found on the product page or in the specifications of the freezer.

Space

A chest freezer is a great source of storage space to store food. Unlike upright freezers with swing doors that may have gaps in the door frame, chest freezers are equipped with an airtight locking seal on the lid. This design can help them conserve energy and keep food at a more consistent and colder temperature.

The average-sized chest freezer consumes approximately 230 kwh to keep it at a cold temperature according to GE lg appliances. This is lower than the 240kwh required by the typical upright new lg refrigerator.

The size of the freezer you select will depend on the items that you'll be keeping in it. Maytag suggests allowing 2.5 cubic feet of storage space for each household member, but some buyers might require more space than that. If you are planning to freeze your meat, or buy in bulk often it is possible that you will require more space than a typical freezer.

Compact models, such as the Essentials C95CFW20 by Currys, can be tucked into the garage or a utility room that is not heated. These models are low-profile and look more like mini lg american fridges than traditional freezers. The Fridgemaster MCF198, which is available from Currys is a bigger option that can be used in a kitchen, but is a great choice for a garage or a utility room that is not heated. These freezers are great for homeowners who want to have more space, but don't want the high operating costs associated with the best deep freezers.

Safety

In research into the history of domestic technologies, researchers from Finland, Norway and the UK have looked into how the freezer came to be accepted as a common home technology. Their work has uncovered the complex process of "domestication where the social meaning of a technology is generated and configured and how it is utilized. The freezer is a common household appliance. However its widespread acceptance and acceptance without question illustrates how complicated the process of domestication is.

Find models with child locks when purchasing a chest-freezer. These locks will stop children from gaining access and getting trapped, or even suffocating. It's also important to search for a model that has an opening for drainage so that any remaining water from defrosting can be easily removed. Some models come with an upper basket to hold frozen peas upright and prevent small things from being lost.

Some lg fridge freezers do not have interior lighting, which makes it difficult to see what you're looking to find in the dark. This might not be an issue when you use the freezer for occasional grocery shopping, but it's a big issue if you're looking to stock up on foods that require long-term storage, or if you have young children at home who might be inclined to wander around in the darkness looking for something to take home.
