Our verdict

A large-capacity chest unit whose real draw is the fridge and freezer conversion dial, useful for seasonal storage needs rather than everyday kitchen use.

Overview

Sold under the Kenmore name and made by Koolatron, the KKCF25E-W is a 25 cu ft chest-style unit that converts between refrigerator and freezer duty using a manual dial, with dual hanging baskets and locking lids for garage or basement storage.

A manual dial adjusts the interior from about 46F down to -11.2F, so the same unit can hold produce at fridge temperatures or run as a deep freezer depending on the season. Balanced hinge lids stay open at the angle you set them, freeing both hands while loading or unloading, and keyed locks secure the two lids separately. LED lighting is built into the interior to help locate items near the bottom.

  • 25 cu ft (710 L) capacity
  • Dial-adjustable from 46F down to -11.2F
  • Two hanging storage baskets
  • Keyed locking lids with LED interior lighting

Who it's for

This fits households that need bulk cold storage in a garage, basement, or cottage and want the flexibility to run it as either a fridge or a freezer. It's less suited to anyone who wants a precise digital temperature readout rather than a manual dial.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • 25 cu ft of capacity for bulk storage
  • Manual dial converts it between fridge and freezer use
  • Two hanging baskets keep small items accessible
  • Keyed locks on both lids
Cons
  • Manual dial rather than a digital thermostat
  • Chest design means bending to reach the bottom
  • No review data yet to confirm long-term reliability

Performance notes

The conversion happens through a single manual dial rather than separate digital settings, so getting a specific temperature takes some trial and adjustment. The two hanging baskets sit near the top for smaller items, while bulk goods go loose in the main chest below. Because it's a chest design, reaching items at the very bottom means leaning in rather than pulling out a shelf.
