Overview
A 5.0 cu ft chest unit that switches between refrigerator and freezer modes with a front-mounted dial, aimed at garages, dorms, or apartments needing extra cold storage without a dedicated appliance for each job.
It runs -11F to 10F in freezer mode and 32F to 46F in fridge mode.
- 5.1 cu ft convertible fridge or freezer
- Freezer -11F to 10F, fridge 32F to 46F
- Front-access defrost drain
- Flat back, compact garage-ready design
Who it's for
Anyone needing a compact, flexible cold-storage unit for a garage, basement, or dorm who doesn't want separate fridge and freezer appliances. Not intended as a primary kitchen freezer for a large household.
Pros and cons
- Switches between fridge and freezer duty with one dial
- Flat back and compact footprint fit tight garage or dorm spaces
- Balanced hinge lid stays open hands-free while loading
- One owner found it needed the coldest setting to keep ice cream properly frozen after a year of use
- Only one hanging basket is included for organizing contents
Performance notes
A front dial switches the compressor between fridge and freezer temperature ranges, while a front-access drain and leakproof plug are meant to simplify defrosting compared with a standard chest freezer.
