Their small footprint makes them popular choices for those who don't have a lot of room to spare. </p><p class=\"faq-answer\">Upright freezers also provide organizational options that most chest freezers don't, like door storage, vertical shelving, and pull-out drawers. This makes them convenient for households that need to store a variety of food sizes and shapes, like soft bags of peas that aren't easily stacked. These models tend to have more air flowing around the food, which makes them less efficient and can cause freezer burn. </p><p class=\"faq-answer\">Chest freezers are more like a cooler, with a door on top that flips up. They take up more floorspace than upright models, but their lower height allows you to put them in otherwise unusable areas, like underneath basement stairs. </p><p class=\"faq-answer\">This design also allows them more storage capacity than upright freezers, simply because you don't have to worry about anything falling out when you open the door. This also makes it easier to fill and pack tightly.</p><p class=\"faq-answer\">Micah Sparacio of Cove Creek Farm recommends chest freezes over upright freezers \"because the cold air stays more contained when you open it,\" he said. </p><p class=\"faq-answer\">Sparacio also stressed the importance of maintaining organization. \"It is very easy for things to get buried, cluttered, and lost in a chest freezer, so having compartments to separate and store different types of food will help you avoid having to go on a complicated treasure hunt every time you want to grab something,\" he said.</p>"},{"question":"What size freezer do I need?","answer":"<p class=\"faq-answer\">Determining what size freezer to purchase can be a tricky process. You want to make sure that your choice is big enough to fulfill your storage needs, but you also don't want to get one that's so big you'll have trouble filling it up. </p><p class=\"faq-answer\">Freezers with a lot of unused space are less efficient than those filled with food since warm air fills empty spaces when you open the door. A packed freezer is much more likely to retain its temperature and require less energy to keep cool. </p><p class=\"faq-answer\"><a href=\"https://affiliate.insider.com/?amazonTrackingID=biauto-51182-20&h=abf33de401aa461a15e6cf99d96fe4834dac3ab53a8ea88bf765163be6f59d39&platform=browser&postID=61b8efc8f2a36b1ac9f42ed8&postSlug=guides%2Fhome%2Fbest-freezers&site=bi&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.homedepot.com%2Fc%2Fab%2Fbest-freezers-for-your-home%2F9ba683603be9fa5395fab9053d40619%23%3A%7E%3Atext%3DAs%2520a%2520rule%2520of%2520thumb%2Ca%2520six%2520cubic%2520foot%2520freezer.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored noindex\" data-am-orig-url=\"https://affiliate.insider.com/?h=abf33de401aa461a15e6cf99d96fe4834dac3ab53a8ea88bf765163be6f59d39&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.homedepot.com%2Fc%2Fab%2Fbest-freezers-for-your-home%2F9ba683603be9fa5395fab9053d40619%23%3A%7E%3Atext%3DAs%2520a%2520rule%2520of%2520thumb%2Ca%2520six%2520cubic%2520foot%2520freezer.\" class=\"sj-link\">Home Depot recommends</a> 1.5 cubic feet of space per person, so a four-person family would need at least six cubic feet of freezer space to meet their needs. This formula is not a hard and fast rule and should be used as a jumping-off point. </p>"},{"question":"Do I need to defrost my standalone freezer?","answer":"<p class=\"faq-answer\">Regardless of the size and type of freezer you choose, it will eventually build up frost on the inside, which will need to be removed. This can either be done manually, or you can opt for a self-defrosting model that handles it for you.</p>"},{"question":"What's a self-defrost or frost-free freezer?","answer":"<p class=\"faq-answer\">These freezers eliminate frost by periodically raising the temperature inside the freezer, melting the frost and preventing buildup. These self-defrosting models may be convenient, but their additional components also add more parts that can potentially break down over time. Plus, the gradual warming and cooling, even though it's minimal, can increase the chances of freezer burn and drying out your food. They also tend to use more energy as well. </p>"},{"question":"What's manual defrost?","answer":"<p class=\"faq-answer\">Unlike frost-free models, manual defrost freezers require you to remove the frost buildup yourself. You'll need to take everything out of the freezer during this process. If you live in a hot or humid climate, you might want to stick with a frost-free model. </p><p class=\"faq-answer\">It might sound like a hassle, but if you're diligent about keeping the freezer door closed and minimizing humidity that creates frost, you can extend the time between defrosting sessions. </p>"},{"question":"How do you defrost a freezer?","answer":"<p class=\"faq-answer\">Remove everything from the unit, unplug it, melt the frost, drain the water, and put everything back in. You might be tempted to chip away at the frost to speed things up, but the risk of damaging the inside of your freezer isn't worth it. </p><p class=\"faq-answer\">Use a hairdryer if you want to expedite the process, but just be aware that the heat can potentially damage plastic parts. <a href=\"https://products.geappliances.com/appliance/gea-support-search-content?contentId=19299\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\">GE recommends</a> that you defrost your unit when frost builds up to 0.25 to 0.5 inches.</p>"},{"question":"How can I tell if the temperature rose too high on my freezer?","answer":"<p class=\"faq-answer\">It can be easy for a freezer to lose power then refreeze again without you knowing about it. This might mean your food spoiled if the power was out for too long. Some models have alarms that sound when the temperature gets too warm, including when the power goes out. </p><p class=\"faq-answer\">A low-tech backup mechanism can alert you to refreezing if you don't have an alarm. Place a cup half-filled with frozen water in the freezer, and place a quarter on top. If the freezer fails, the water will melt, and the quarter will sink to the bottom before it refreezes. If you see this, you'll know what happened.</p>"}],"showRecirc":false,"paywall":{"isExempt":true}},"path":"/guides/home/best-freezers","attributes":{"amazonTrackingID":"biauto-51182-20","categories":["Kitchen appliances","Home","Appliances","Garage","Buying Guide","Insider Picks Guides","Insider Reviews 2021","Storage","FAQ Page"]},"relationships":{"authors":{"data":[{"type":"author","id":"alex-rennie","attributes":{"company":"Insider","email":"","label":"Alex Rennie","title":"Freelance Reporter, Insider Reviews"},"relationships":{"image":{"data":{"type":"image","id":"5d681a512e22af1f7311e605","attributes":{"caption":"","contentType":"image/jpeg","height":1709,"source":"Alex Rennie","width":1200},"links":{"self":"https://i.insider.com/5d681a512e22af1f7311e605"}}}},"links":{"self":"https://content-api-cache-internal.insider-prd.engineering/v1/bi/authors/alex-rennie","site":"https://www.businessinsider.com/author/alex-rennie"}}]},"categories":{"data":[{"type":"category","id":"kitchen-appliances","attributes":{"label":"Kitchen appliances"},"links":{"site":"https://www.businessinsider.com/category/kitchen-appliances"},"isIndexable":false},{"type":"category","id":"home","attributes":{"label":"Home"},"links":{"site":"https://www.businessinsider.com/category/home"},"isIndexable":false},{"type":"category","id":"appliances","attributes":{"label":"Appliances"},"links":{"site":"https://www.businessinsider.com/category/appliances"},"isIndexable":false},{"type":"category","id":"garage","attributes":{"label":"Garage"},"links":{"site":"https://www.businessinsider.com/category/garage"},"isIndexable":false},{"type":"category","id":"buying-guide","attributes":{"label":"Buying Guide"},"links":{"site":"https://www.businessinsider.com/category/buying-guide"},"isIndexable":false},{"type":"category","id":"insider-picks-guides","attributes":{"label":"Insider Picks Guides"},"links":{"site":"https://www.businessinsider.com/category/insider-picks-guides"},"isIndexable":false},{"type":"category","id":"insider-reviews-2021","attributes":{"label":"Insider Reviews 2021"},"links":{"site":"https://www.businessinsider.com/category/insider-reviews-2021"},"isIndexable":false},{"type":"category","id":"storage","attributes":{"label":"Storage"},"links":{"site":"https://www.businessinsider.com/category/storage"},"isIndexable":false},{"type":"category","id":"faq-page","attributes":{"label":"FAQ Page"},"links":{"site":"https://www.businessinsider.com/category/faq-page"},"isIndexable":false}]},"verticals":{"data":[{"type":"vertical","id":"insiderpicks-home","attributes":{"created":"2024-01-02T21:48:41Z","label":"Home (Reviews)","modified":"2024-01-02T21:48:41Z"},"links":{"posts":"https://content-api-cache-internal.insider-prd.engineering/v1/bi/verticals/insiderpicks-home/posts","self":"https://content-api-cache-internal.insider-prd.engineering/v1/bi/verticals/insiderpicks-home","site":"https://www.businessinsider.com/insiderpicks-home"}},{"type":"vertical","id":"insiderpicks","attributes":{"created":"2015-04-27T20:46:37Z","label":"Reviews","modified":"2023-01-18T15:23:10Z"},"links":{"facebook":{"href":"https://www.facebook.com/InsiderPicks","meta":{"username":"InsiderPicks"}},"posts":"https://content-api-cache-internal.insider-prd.engineering/v1/bi/verticals/insiderpicks/posts","self":"https://content-api-cache-internal.insider-prd.engineering/v1/bi/verticals/insiderpicks","site":"https://www.businessinsider.com/insiderpicks","twitter":{"href":"https://www.twitter.com/insider_picks","meta":{"username":"insider_picks"}}}}]}},"subType":"slideshow","superVertical":"life","type":"post","theme":{"name":"reviews-post","label":"Reviews Post"},"continentCode":"AS","deviceType":"desktop","isBot":false,"privacyApi":"NONE","env":"production"} || {"config": {}};

Their small footprint makes them popular choices for those who don't have a lot of room to spare. </p><p class=\"faq-answer\">Upright freezers also provide organizational options that most chest freezers don't, like door storage, vertical shelving, and pull-out drawers. This makes them convenient for households that need to store a variety of food sizes and shapes, like soft bags of peas that aren't easily stacked. These models tend to have more air flowing around the food, which makes them less efficient and can cause freezer burn. </p><p class=\"faq-answer\">Chest freezers are more like a cooler, with a door on top that flips up. They take up more floorspace than upright models, but their lower height allows you to put them in otherwise unusable areas, like underneath basement stairs. </p><p class=\"faq-answer\">This design also allows them more storage capacity than upright freezers, simply because you don't have to worry about anything falling out when you open the door. This also makes it easier to fill and pack tightly.</p><p class=\"faq-answer\">Micah Sparacio of Cove Creek Farm recommends chest freezes over upright freezers \"because the cold air stays more contained when you open it,\" he said. </p><p class=\"faq-answer\">Sparacio also stressed the importance of maintaining organization. \"It is very easy for things to get buried, cluttered, and lost in a chest freezer, so having compartments to separate and store different types of food will help you avoid having to go on a complicated treasure hunt every time you want to grab something,\" he said.</p>"}},{"@type":"Question","name":"What size freezer do I need?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"<p class=\"faq-answer\">Determining what size freezer to purchase can be a tricky process.

This can either be done manually, or you can opt for a self-defrosting model that handles it for you.</p>"}},{"@type":"Question","name":"What's a self-defrost or frost-free freezer?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"<p class=\"faq-answer\">These freezers eliminate frost by periodically raising the temperature inside the freezer, melting the frost and preventing buildup. These self-defrosting models may be convenient, but their additional components also add more parts that can potentially break down over time. Plus, the gradual warming and cooling, even though it's minimal, can increase the chances of freezer burn and drying out your food. They also tend to use more energy as well. </p>"}},{"@type":"Question","name":"What's manual defrost?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"<p class=\"faq-answer\">Unlike frost-free models, manual defrost freezers require you to remove the frost buildup yourself. You'll need to take everything out of the freezer during this process. If you live in a hot or humid climate, you might want to stick with a frost-free model. </p><p class=\"faq-answer\">It might sound like a hassle, but if you're diligent about keeping the freezer door closed and minimizing humidity that creates frost, you can extend the time between defrosting sessions. </p>"}},{"@type":"Question","name":"How do you defrost a freezer?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"<p class=\"faq-answer\">Remove everything from the unit, unplug it, melt the frost, drain the water, and put everything back in. You might be tempted to chip away at the frost to speed things up, but the risk of damaging the inside of your freezer isn't worth it. </p><p class=\"faq-answer\">Use a hairdryer if you want to expedite the process, but just be aware that the heat can potentially damage plastic parts. <a href=\"https://products.geappliances.com/appliance/gea-support-search-content?contentId=19299\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\">GE recommends</a> that you defrost your unit when frost builds up to 0.25 to 0.5 inches.</p>"}},{"@type":"Question","name":"How can I tell if the temperature rose too high on my freezer?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"<p class=\"faq-answer\">It can be easy for a freezer to lose power then refreeze again without you knowing about it. This might mean your food spoiled if the power was out for too long. Some models have alarms that sound when the temperature gets too warm, including when the power goes out. </p><p class=\"faq-answer\">A low-tech backup mechanism can alert you to refreezing if you don't have an alarm. Place a cup half-filled with frozen water in the freezer, and place a quarter on top. If the freezer fails, the water will melt, and the quarter will sink to the bottom before it refreezes. If you see this, you'll know what happened.</p>"}}]} </script> <script type="application/ld+json">

Whether you have a large family who wants to stock up on regular food items; aren't satisfied with your refrigerator's freezer section; or just want to be prepared in the event of an emergency, there are a variety of freezers to choose from.</p><p>When choosing a freezer, the first thing to consider is which type fits best with your household. Upright and chest freezers both have considerable benefits and drawbacks to keep in mind. You can read more about the differences here.</p><p>My family owned both chest and upright freezers growing up, and I have had hands-on experience using both manual and frost-free styles. I've used this experience, extensive online research, and consulted an expert to assemble this list.  </p><aside class="quick-tip headline-regular"><p><em><strong>Editor's note: </strong>Due to supply-chain issues, major appliances, including freezers, have been having stock issues. </em></p></aside><div class="in-post-sticky only-desktop"><div class="ad-callout-wrapper only-desktop"> <div class="ad-label headline-regular only-desktop">Advertisement</div> <div data-bi-ad="" id="gpt-slideshow-insiderpicks_home-desktop_in_post_ad-desktop-fluid-2" class="ad ad-wrapper fluid in-post only-desktop" data-force="" data-type="ad" data-adunit="businessinsider.desktop/reviews-slideshow/in-content-2/home-reviews" data-secvert="insiderpicks" data-tag="kitchen-appliances,home,appliances,garage,buying-guide,insider-picks-guides,insider-reviews-2021,storage,faq-page" data-authors="alex-rennie" data-region="Desktop In Post Ad" data-responsive="[{"browserLimit":[728,0],"slotSize":[[300,250],"fluid"]},{"browserLimit":[1260,0],"slotSize":[[300,250],[600,480],"fluid"]}]" data-tile-order="tile-2" data-url="/guides/home/best-freezers" data-template="exceptional" data-targeting="{"adunit":"businessinsider.desktop/reviews-slideshow/in-content-2/home-reviews","region":"Desktop In Post Ad","tag":"kitchen-appliances,home,appliances,garage,buying-guide,insider-picks-guides,insider-reviews-2021,storage,faq-page","template":"exceptional","dvp_spos":"in-content-2","rawvert":""}" data-amazontamsizes="[[300,250]]" data-enable-ad-refresher="true" data-refresh-count="0"></div> </div></div><h2 id="here-are-our-top-picks-for-the-best-freezer" class="toc-anchor"><strong>Here are our top picks for the best freezer</strong></h2><ul class="summary-list"><li><strong>Best freezer overall: </strong><a href="https://shop-links.co/cfPtY1lFL2d" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener sponsored" data-analytics-product-module="summary_bullets"><strong>GE FUF17DLRWW 17.3-Cubic Foot Frost-Free Upright Freezer</strong></a></li><li><strong>Best compact freezer: </strong><a href="https://affiliate.insider.com/?amazonTrackingID=biauto-51182-20&h=d3fdb20ba9f4b3e3dc5bc2040540c1e51bda465108a5cd52e5177bf7de72f6c6&platform=browser&postID=61b8efc8f2a36b1ac9f42ed8&postSlug=guides%2Fhome%2Fbest-freezers&site=bi&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.appliancesconnection.com%2Ffrigidaire-fffu06m1tw.html%3F" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener sponsored noindex" data-analytics-product-module="summary_bullets" data-am-orig-url="https://affiliate.insider.com/?h=d3fdb20ba9f4b3e3dc5bc2040540c1e51bda465108a5cd52e5177bf7de72f6c6&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.appliancesconnection.com%2Ffrigidaire-fffu06m1tw.html%3F" class="sj-link"><strong>Frigidaire FFFU06M1TW 5.8-Cubic Foot Upright Freezer</strong></a></li><li><strong>Best budget freezer: </strong><a href="https://shop-links.co/cfPufV6w9OP" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener sponsored" data-analytics-product-module="summary_bullets"><strong>GE FCM7SKWW 7.0-Cubic Foot.

class="sj-link" data-analytics-module="body_link">Frigidaire FFFU06M1TW</a> is our pick for tight areas. A reversible door makes it more likely to fit anywhere, allowing you to choose which direction it swings open. Plus, its pocket handle saves you a few inches on the front of the unit. This design does require you to reach the top of the door to open it, so this feature can be less convenient for shorter people.</p><p>Its small size also makes the manual defrosting process more manageable. By defrosting more quickly, your food will spend less time out of the freezer, and that's always a good thing. Since it will be easier to keep it packed tight, you'll need to defrost it less frequently. </p><p>Even though the Frigidaire Upright Freezer is a compact model, its interior shelf dimensions still provide a good amount of storage room. However, these shelves are fixed and cannot be adjusted to create more height. This is because the freezer coils that cool the unit run underneath each shelf. This rigid design could be a deal-breaker for anyone looking to store larger items like turkeys or extra-large pizza boxes. </p><p>The <a href="https://affiliate.insider.com/?amazonTrackingID=biauto-51182-20&h=d3fdb20ba9f4b3e3dc5bc2040540c1e51bda465108a5cd52e5177bf7de72f6c6&platform=browser&postID=61b8efc8f2a36b1ac9f42ed8&postSlug=guides%2Fhome%2Fbest-freezers&site=bi&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.appliancesconnection.com%2Ffrigidaire-fffu06m1tw.html%3F" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener sponsored noindex" data-am-orig-url="https://affiliate.insider.com/?h=d3fdb20ba9f4b3e3dc5bc2040540c1e51bda465108a5cd52e5177bf7de72f6c6&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.appliancesconnection.com%2Ffrigidaire-fffu06m1tw.html%3F" class="sj-link" data-analytics-module="body_link">Frigidaire FFFU06M1TW</a> doesn't have the door storage of other upright models, but essentially you're sacrificing that to keep the entire unit compact. </p> <div class="slide-options "> <div class="insider-pick-button-wrapper"> <a target="_merchant" href="https://affiliate.insider.com/?amazonTrackingID=biauto-51182-20&h=d3fdb20ba9f4b3e3dc5bc2040540c1e51bda465108a5cd52e5177bf7de72f6c6&platform=browser&postID=61b8efc8f2a36b1ac9f42ed8&postSlug=guides%2Fhome%2Fbest-freezers&site=bi&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.appliancesconnection.com%2Ffrigidaire-fffu06m1tw.html%3F" data-analytics-product="5f2184d53f73705dde2e29c8" data-analytics-product-index="3" data-analytics-product-module="Product Slide" data-analytics-product-area="insider-pick-slide-button" data-analytics-product-price="523.75"data-purchase-options-index="0" data-num-purchase-options="1" data-analytics-product-name="FFFU06M1TW 5.8-Cubic Foot Upright Freezer" data-analytics-product-id="5f2184d53f73705dde2e29c8" data-analytics-product-brand="Frigidaire" class="insider-pick-button not-content-link headline-semibold insider-pick-button--large" > <span> Check price at Appliances Connection </span> </a> <div class="savings-wrapper headline-regular"> Originally <span class="original-price">$523.75</span><span class="savings headline-semibold">Save 20%</span> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="in-post-sticky in-slide-sticky ad">  <div class="ad-callout-wrapper only-desktop"> <div class="ad-label headline-regular only-desktop">Advertisement</div> <div data-bi-ad id="gpt-slideshow-insiderpicks_home-slideshow_one_page_ad_desktop-desktop-fluid-2" class="ad ad-wrapper fluid in-post in-slide only-desktop" data-force="" data-type="ad" data-adunit="businessinsider.desktop/reviews-slideshow/in-content-4-plus/home-reviews" data-secvert="insiderpicks" data-tag="kitchen-appliances,home,appliances,garage,buying-guide,insider-picks-guides,insider-reviews-2021,storage,faq-page" data-authors="alex-rennie" data-region="Slideshow One Page Ad Desktop" data-responsive="[{"browserLimit":[970,0],"slotSize":[[300,250],[600,480],"fluid"]}]" data-tile-order="tile-2" data-url="/guides/home/best-freezers" data-template="exceptional" data-targeting="{"adunit":"businessinsider.desktop/reviews-slideshow/in-content-4-plus/home-reviews","region":"Slideshow One Page Ad Desktop","tag":"kitchen-appliances,home,appliances,garage,buying-guide,insider-picks-guides,insider-reviews-2021,storage,faq-page","template":"exceptional","dvp_spos":"in-content-4-plus","rawvert":""}" data-amazontamsizes="[[300,250]]" data-enable-ad-refresher="true" data-refresh-count="0" ></div> </div> </div> <div class="slide keyline " id="best-budget-freezer-3" data-slide-number="3" data-slide-anchor="#best-budget-freezer-3" data-slide-title="Best budget freezer" data-slide="" data-e2e-name="slide-3" > <div class="slide-layout clearfix"> <div class="slide-title clearfix ignore-typography" data-e2e-name="slide-title" > <h2 class="slide-title-text" >Best budget freezer</h2> </div> <figure class="figure image-figure-image " data-type="img" data-e2e-name="image-figure-image" data-media-container="image" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/ImageObject" > <div class="lazy-holder " style="padding-top: calc(100% * 1200 / 1600)" > <meta itemprop="contentUrl" content="https://i.insider.com/617069d533f4b300189abe9c"/> <img class="lazy-image " src="data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg' viewBox='0 0 1 1'%3E%3C/svg%3E" data-content-type="image/jpeg" data-srcs="{"https://i.insider.com/617069d533f4b300189abe9c":{"contentType":"image/jpeg","aspectRatioW":1600,"aspectRatioH":1200}}" alt="Image of the GE FCM7SKWW freezer in a garage near a shelving unit with tools for best freezer of 2021" /> <noscript> <img src="https://i.insider.com/617069d533f4b300189abe9c?width=600&format=jpeg&auto=webp" /> </noscript> </div> <span class="image-source-only "> <span class="image-source headline-regular" data-e2e-name="image-source" itemprop="creditText" > GE </span> </span> </figure> <p><strong>The </strong><a href="https://shop-links.co/cfPufV6w9OP" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener sponsored" data-analytics-module="body_link"><strong>GE FCM7SKWW 7.0-Cubic Foot.

Two lift-out storage baskets allow you to store the items you use most regularly on top so you spend less time searching through the freezer with the door open. These baskets slide horizontally across the top of the unit, so you can scoot them around to access the main cavity.</p><p>The water drain is located on the front of the unit, making it more convenient when defrosting.

Its five lift-out storage baskets slide back and forth across upper and lower rails, and the four dividers below allow you to customize the main cavity as you like.  </p><p>This kind of organization is especially important with larger freezers. The faster you grab what you need and get the door closed, the less cold air escapes. A nice, bright LED light automatically activates when the door opens, allowing you to get in and out quickly.</p><p>Security is important with a freezer of this size. The GE chest freezer has a bright green power light that lets you know power status, as well as an audible temperature alarm that immediately alerts you if the temperature rises. The door lock will keep away any nosy intruders and safeguard against small children climbing inside. </p><p>I really appreciate simple, low-tech features, and the handy guide sticker on this freezer is a great example. It provides the recommended shelf life of a variety of food items in an easy-to-read visual, making it easy to date and organize your foods. </p><p>One drawback is that the <a href="https://shop-links.co/cfPt3N4Wvgc" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener sponsored" data-analytics-module="body_link">GE FCM22DLWW</a> is a manual defrost model.

Recessed pocket handles give it a cleaner look, and the black matte finish matches much better with the toolboxes and hardware often found in garages. <strong> </strong></p><p>The Gladiator freezer provides a nice variety of door storage and includes two space-saving wire racks for sliding in narrow items like frozen pizzas. Its two adjustable shelves allow you to customize the top half of the fridge, while two wire drawers keep the bottom organized.</p><p>My favorite element of the Gladiator is its stainless steel foot pedal, a feature that I've never seen before in a freezer.

Their small footprint makes them popular choices for those who don't have a lot of room to spare. </p><p class="faq-answer">Upright freezers also provide organizational options that most chest freezers don't, like door storage, vertical shelving, and pull-out drawers. This makes them convenient for households that need to store a variety of food sizes and shapes, like soft bags of peas that aren't easily stacked. These models tend to have more air flowing around the food, which makes them less efficient and can cause freezer burn. </p><p class="faq-answer">Chest freezers are more like a cooler, with a door on top that flips up. They take up more floorspace than upright models, but their lower height allows you to put them in otherwise unusable areas, like underneath basement stairs. </p><p class="faq-answer">This design also allows them more storage capacity than upright freezers, simply because you don't have to worry about anything falling out when you open the door. This also makes it easier to fill and pack tightly.</p><p class="faq-answer">Micah Sparacio of Cove Creek Farm recommends chest freezes over upright freezers "because the cold air stays more contained when you open it," he said. </p><p class="faq-answer">Sparacio also stressed the importance of maintaining organization. "It is very easy for things to get buried, cluttered, and lost in a chest freezer, so having compartments to separate and store different types of food will help you avoid having to go on a complicated treasure hunt every time you want to grab something," he said.</p><hr><h3 class="faq-question">What size freezer do I need?</h3><p class="faq-answer">Determining what size freezer to purchase can be a tricky process. You want to make sure that your choice is big enough to fulfill your storage needs, but you also don't want to get one that's so big you'll have trouble filling it up. </p><p class="faq-answer">Freezers with a lot of unused space are less efficient than those filled with food since warm air fills empty spaces when you open the door. A packed freezer is much more likely to retain its temperature and require less energy to keep cool. </p><p class="faq-answer"><a href="https://affiliate.insider.com/?amazonTrackingID=biauto-51182-20&h=abf33de401aa461a15e6cf99d96fe4834dac3ab53a8ea88bf765163be6f59d39&platform=browser&postID=61b8efc8f2a36b1ac9f42ed8&postSlug=guides%2Fhome%2Fbest-freezers&site=bi&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.homedepot.com%2Fc%2Fab%2Fbest-freezers-for-your-home%2F9ba683603be9fa5395fab9053d40619%23%3A%7E%3Atext%3DAs%2520a%2520rule%2520of%2520thumb%2Ca%2520six%2520cubic%2520foot%2520freezer." target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener sponsored noindex" data-am-orig-url="https://affiliate.insider.com/?h=abf33de401aa461a15e6cf99d96fe4834dac3ab53a8ea88bf765163be6f59d39&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.homedepot.com%2Fc%2Fab%2Fbest-freezers-for-your-home%2F9ba683603be9fa5395fab9053d40619%23%3A%7E%3Atext%3DAs%2520a%2520rule%2520of%2520thumb%2Ca%2520six%2520cubic%2520foot%2520freezer." class="sj-link" data-analytics-module="body_link">Home Depot recommends</a> 1.5 cubic feet of space per person, so a four-person family would need at least six cubic feet of freezer space to meet their needs. This formula is not a hard and fast rule and should be used as a jumping-off point. </p><hr><h3 class="faq-question">Do I need to defrost my standalone freezer?</h3><p class="faq-answer">Regardless of the size and type of freezer you choose, it will eventually build up frost on the inside, which will need to be removed. This can either be done manually, or you can opt for a self-defrosting model that handles it for you.</p><hr><h3 class="faq-question">What's a self-defrost or frost-free freezer?</h3><p class="faq-answer">These freezers eliminate frost by periodically raising the temperature inside the freezer, melting the frost and preventing buildup. These self-defrosting models may be convenient, but their additional components also add more parts that can potentially break down over time. Plus, the gradual warming and cooling, even though it's minimal, can increase the chances of freezer burn and drying out your food. They also tend to use more energy as well. </p><hr><h3 class="faq-question">What's manual defrost?</h3><p class="faq-answer">Unlike frost-free models, manual defrost freezers require you to remove the frost buildup yourself. You'll need to take everything out of the freezer during this process. If you live in a hot or humid climate, you might want to stick with a frost-free model. </p><p class="faq-answer">It might sound like a hassle, but if you're diligent about keeping the freezer door closed and minimizing humidity that creates frost, you can extend the time between defrosting sessions. </p><hr><h3 class="faq-question">How do you defrost a freezer?</h3><p class="faq-answer">Remove everything from the unit, unplug it, melt the frost, drain the water, and put everything back in. You might be tempted to chip away at the frost to speed things up, but the risk of damaging the inside of your freezer isn't worth it. </p><p class="faq-answer">Use a hairdryer if you want to expedite the process, but just be aware that the heat can potentially damage plastic parts. <a href="https://products.geappliances.com/appliance/gea-support-search-content?contentId=19299" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener sponsored" data-analytics-module="body_link">GE recommends</a> that you defrost your unit when frost builds up to 0.25 to 0.5 inches.</p><hr><h3 class="faq-question">How can I tell if the temperature rose too high on my freezer?</h3><p class="faq-answer">It can be easy for a freezer to lose power then refreeze again without you knowing about it. This might mean your food spoiled if the power was out for too long. Some models have alarms that sound when the temperature gets too warm, including when the power goes out. </p><p class="faq-answer">A low-tech backup mechanism can alert you to refreezing if you don't have an alarm. Place a cup half-filled with frozen water in the freezer, and place a quarter on top. If the freezer fails, the water will melt, and the quarter will sink to the bottom before it refreezes. If you see this, you'll know what happened.</p> <div class="slide-options "> </div> </div> </div> <div class="slide keyline " id="check-out-more-storage-guides-8" data-slide-number="8" data-slide-anchor="#check-out-more-storage-guides-8" data-slide-title="Check out more storage guides" data-slide="" data-e2e-name="slide-8" > <div class="slide-layout clearfix"> <div class="slide-title clearfix ignore-typography" data-e2e-name="slide-title" > <h2 class="slide-title-text" >Check out more storage guides</h2> </div> <figure class="figure image-figure-image " data-type="img" data-e2e-name="image-figure-image" data-media-container="image" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/ImageObject" > <div class="lazy-holder " style="padding-top: calc(100% * 900 / 1200)" > <meta itemprop="contentUrl" content="https://i.insider.com/5b72d6477708e94b0a144b43"/> <img class="lazy-image " src="data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg' viewBox='0 0 1 1'%3E%3C/svg%3E" data-content-type="image/png" data-srcs="{"https://i.insider.com/5b72d6477708e94b0a144b43":{"contentType":"image/png","aspectRatioW":1200,"aspectRatioH":900}}" alt="tcs" /> <noscript> <img src="https://i.insider.com/5b72d6477708e94b0a144b43?width=600&format=jpeg&auto=webp" /> </noscript> </div> <span class="image-source-only "> <span class="image-source headline-regular" data-e2e-name="image-source" itemprop="creditText" > The Container Store Instagram </span> </span> </figure> <ul class="summary-list"><li><strong><a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/guides/home/best-hanger" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-analytics-module="body_link">The best clothes hangers</a></strong></li><li><strong><a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/guides/home/best-storage-containers" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-analytics-module="body_link">The best storage containers</a></strong></li><li><strong><a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/guides/home/home-organization-ideas-under-50-dollars" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-analytics-module="body_link">Home organization ideas for under $50</a></strong></li></ul> <div class="slide-options "> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </section> </div> <section class="post-authors" data-component-type="post-author" > <div class="post-author"> <a id="post-author_profile-link" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/author/alex-rennie" target="_blank" data-analytics-product-module="author-bio"> <div class="author-profile-image-wrapper" data-slug="alex-rennie" > <div class="lazy-holder author-profile-image"> <img class="lazy-image author-profile-image" src="data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg' viewBox='0 0 1 1'%3E%3C/svg%3E" data-src='https://i.insider.com/5d681a512e22af1f7311e605?crop=1:1&width=256&format=jpeg&auto=webp' alt="AlexRennie" /> <noscript> <img src="https://i.insider.com/5d681a512e22af1f7311e605?crop=1:1&width=256&format=jpeg&auto=webp" /> </noscript> </div> </div> </a> <div class="post-author_info"> <div class="post-author_top"> <a id="post-author_name-link" class="post-author_link not-content-link" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/author/alex-rennie" target="_blank" data-analytics-product-module="author-bio"> <div class="post-author_name headline-semibold">Alex Rennie</div> </a> <div class="post-author_title headline-regular">Freelance Reporter, Insider Reviews</div> </div> <div class="post-author_bio headline-regular"> <input type="checkbox" id="expanded0"> <div class="post-author_bio_content"> <span>Alex Rennie is a freelance writer who specializes in the home improvement, DIY, and appliance space.
