Chest freezers

Electrolux chest freezers: Deep storage, lasting freshness 

Store your food for longer at ice-cold levels with Electrolux chest freezers. Available in 200L, 300L, and up to 500L capacities, they offer spacious, energy-efficient storage to keep your groceries fresh and perfectly preserved. 

What is a chest freezer? 

A chest freezer is a spacious, top-opening freezer designed for bulk storage and long-term food preservation. Its deep, open design allows you to store large or irregularly shaped items with ease.  

Popular for their energy efficiency and consistent cooling, chest freezers are ideal for households that buy in bulk or meal prep. Alongside upright freezers, which offer vertical storage with shelves, chest freezers provide a versatile solution for keeping food fresh for longer. 

Differences between chest freezers and upright freezers 

The main difference between chest freezers and upright freezers lies in their design and storage layout. Chest freezers open from the top, offering deep, open storage ideal for bulk items and longer cooling retention during power outages. Upright freezers, on the other hand, feature a vertical, front-opening design with shelves and compartments, making organization and access easier.  

Both types offer efficient freezing, with the choice depending on storage needs and space availability. 

Chest freezer functions and benefits 

A chest freezer offers versatile, efficient freezing with several advantages over regular refrigerators, making it ideal for long-term food storage. 

• Deep freezing with consistent low temperatures – Maintains colder, stable temperatures than standard freezers to preserve food for extended periods.
• Spacious bulk storage – The deep, open design allows for storing large quantities of food, including bulky or irregularly shaped items, perfect for bulk shopping and meal prepping. 
• Customizable temperature control with fast-freeze option – Adjust internal temperatures as needed and use the fast-freeze function to quickly lock in nutrients and freshness. 
• Energy-efficient and cost-effective – Consumes less energy due to superior insulation and a top-opening design, helping lower utility bills while reducing food waste.
