Why Buy a Mini Chest Freezer? A chest freezer is great if you like to store frozen items and need additional freezer space. They are often located in garages or other outbuildings. They let you benefit from the price reductions offered by supermarkets. This Currys own brand provides plenty of storage space (around five bags) at a reasonable price. It is rated with an A+ energy rating so it's affordable to run. It also has a counterbalanced top which makes it easier to separate food items. Capacity A small chest freezer is a great option when you don't have enough space to install a taller freezer but you still want to store enough ice cream for summer, or stews in large quantities in winter. These smaller models are typically smaller and more spacious than the larger models, which means they take up significantly less space. Some of them are able to fit in your garage. This is an ideal option for people who grow their own produce or buy in bulk and then freeze it. Some models include one or two baskets at the top to hold bags of frozen peas, or homemade Ice lollies upright, and to prevent small or commonly used food items from getting lost in the bottom of the freezer. These are a great way to store bags of frozen baguettes, bread, and other items. The cheapest chest freezers will cost more than PS1000 and are often placed under the kitchen sink or utility room. If you're looking for something more modern, the Bush BECF99L has a chic black case, and has an opening for the drain on the front which makes defrosting simpler. This model is a bit shallower than some of its rivals, but it still has up to 100 litres of storage capacity and can hold up to three bags worth of shopping. Energy efficiency A chest freezer can help make mealtimes simpler for families who do a lot of batch cooking or who want to cut down on food waste. It can also cut down on trips to the grocery store especially if you're growing your own fruit and vegetables. Vincent Finazzo of Riverwards Produce in Philadelphia says it's great for keeping excess produce and making microwave-friendly meals. Chest freezers are generally extremely well-insulated, meaning they don't lose any of their cold air when the door is opened as happens with fridge and freezer doors. They can also be incredibly energy efficient, especially when you choose one equipped with low frost technology. Low frost models require less freezing and will save electricity costs. Many chest freezers feature features that make them more efficient. You should look for a power outage assurance, which signifies that the unit will stay frozen during a power cut, and a high-temperature alarm or light, which alerts you if the temperature in the freezer has risen. It is also important to check the freezer's annual consumption energy in kWh. This will give you a good idea of the cost it will take to run. You'll find this figure in the manual or on the freezer's energy label. Some freezers have an storage basket which clips to the top, in order to keep small items from being lost in the chaos underneath. Noise This Bosch integrated model is just enough space to be unobtrusive. It is ideal for caravans and motorhomes as well as kitchenettes and student accommodations. It has a capacity of 100 litres which is sufficient to store three shopping bags. It is also energy efficient and has an A+ rating and won't cost much to operate. It can keep food frozen for up to 30 hours without power, which makes it a handy backup freezer in the event of a blackout. It is quiet and is simple and minimalist in its design. This is ideal for those who don't want to be interrupted by their freezer while working in the kitchen or living room. It has a convenient interior light and storage baskets that help you organize it. Frydge Find models with wire storage baskets that are clipped to the edge. These will lift everyday items such as frozen vegetables and chopped onions away from the chaos that could be below. They're also great for items that need to be stacked like open bags of frozen beans or oven chips. Another feature that many buyers appreciate is a temperature alarm or light. It will notify you if the freezer gets too hot after cleaning, defrosting or adding lots of food that is not frozen. This is a crucial safety feature, particularly if you plan on using your mini chest freezer outside or in the garage. This Bush model offers plenty of freezer space at reasonable prices, despite its small size. It's ideal for storage of summer ice creams or stews cooked in bulk, and it can even be used in a garage or an outbuilding in the event that you wish to. It's also simple to get into due to the lid that is counterbalanced and will not close on your head when you look through it. Chest freezers are notorious for accumulating food debris and, if not properly organized, it's easy for people to forget what's in them. There are plenty of ways to make a small chest freezer easier to use and less prone to waste. It doesn't matter if it's a simple list on a magnet, or an extensive inventory sheet for the freezer (there's an example here), the right organising system will ensure that your small chest freezer functions smoothly.
