Overview
Hamilton Beach's HBFRF6892 is a 6.8 cubic foot upright unit that converts between freezer and refrigerator duty from a front panel control. It has a reversible door hinge, a recessed handle, removable glass shelves, a slide-out transparent bottom drawer and adjustable leveling legs.
The convertible function is what sets this apart from a plain garage freezer. Set it cold for a meat sale or a bulk shopping trip, then switch it to refrigerator temperatures when you need overflow drinks and produce instead, without owning two appliances. The reversible hinge is the other practical touch, letting the door clear a wall or a walkway on either side.
- 6.8 cu ft upright capacity
- Removable glass shelves plus door bins
- Slide-out transparent bottom drawer
- Adjustable leveling legs, freestanding
Who it's for
Good for garages, basements, offices, RVs and dorms where a 28 inch square footprint is available and needs may change through the year. It is not the pick for anyone who wants a rugged, thick walled cabinet or who cannot handle a heavy appliance during setup.
Pros and cons
- Switches between freezer and refrigerator modes
- Door hinge reverses for left or right opening
- Front display shows interior temperature
- Flat back and 28 inch square footprint
- Thin door panel dents easily
- Frequent reports of shipping damage
- Heavy and awkward to position alone

Frequently asked questions
Can the Hamilton Beach HBFRF6892 be used as a refrigerator?
Yes. A front panel control switches it between freezer and refrigerator operation, so the same cabinet can serve either role.
Which side does the HBFRF6892 door open from?
Either side. The hinge is reversible, so you can set the door to swing left or right to suit the space it goes in.
How much floor space does this Hamilton Beach unit need?
One owner measured the footprint at about 28 by 28 inches, and the flat back and recessed handle let it sit close to a wall or in a corner.
