Which type suits you?
| Freezer | Suits | Worth checking |
|---|
| Tall | Families, batch cooks and bulk buyers. | Its height, how many drawers it has, and frost free. |
| Under-counter | A small household, or a little extra frozen space. | The clearance under your worktop and how it defrosts. |
| Column | Fully fitted kitchens built from separate tall units. | Panels, temperature zones and the joining kit. |
| With ice maker | Ice on tap without filling trays. | A cold water supply to connect it to. |
Making the choice
Tall or under-counter?
Tall freezers hold a great deal more and are often made to partner a larder fridge, giving you full-height chilled and frozen storage next to each other. An under-counter freezer is right for a smaller household or as overflow space in a utility room.
Frost free
With frost free, ice never has the chance to build up, so defrosting is a thing of the past. Some under-counter freezers still use manual defrost and will need clearing out every so often. Each product page states the type.
Drawers and zones
Transparent drawers show you what's inside at a glance. A deep drawer is handy for awkward, bulky items, and fast freeze chills the cabinet in advance of a big shop so what's already there stays rock solid. Certain column freezers let you set separate zones to different temperatures.
Ice makers
A few freezers make ice on their own. They connect to a cold water pipe, and the product page will flag this.
Alarms and apps
Most freezers will beep if the door is left ajar or the temperature starts to rise, giving you time to act before anything thaws. Connected models send that alert to your phone and let you start fast freeze remotely.
Width and finish
Widths vary more than people expect, from slim under-counter models to tall freezers wider than the common 60cm, so measure the gap before comparing capacity. Freestanding freezers are mostly white, with stainless steel on professional-style designs.
Before you order
- Measure the space. For an integrated model, measure inside the housing; for a freestanding one, allow for the air gaps in the manual.
- Check the hinges. When a fridge and freezer stand together, their doors usually open away from each other, so check each one's hinge side.
- Garage use. Only choose a model its maker approves for unheated rooms.
- Let it get cold. Switch the new freezer on and give it time to reach temperature before you fill it. The manual says how long.

Freezers: your questions answered
Is frost free worth having?
For most households, yes. There's no defrosting, the drawers never freeze shut and you don't lose capacity to a crust of ice.
Can a freezer go in the garage?
Only where the maker says so. Some are built for unheated spaces and others may stop working properly in the cold, so check the manual.
What is fast freeze for?
It drops the temperature for a few hours so the food already inside stays hard frozen when you add a big load of fresh food.
Does a freezer with an ice maker need plumbing?
Yes, automatic ice makers in freezers normally connect to a cold water pipe. The product page confirms this for each model.
What is a column freezer?
A full-height built-in freezer made to line up with a matching fridge or wine column, so the tall units read as one continuous run.
How often should I defrost a manual freezer?
When you see ice building up on the walls, or the drawers start to stick. Heavy frost eats into the space and pushes up running costs.
