Overview
This BODACIOUS upright is a 3.2 cubic foot manual-defrost mini freezer measuring 18.5 wide by 17.5 deep by 32.8 inches tall and weighing 44 pounds. Three shelves rated at 10 pounds each sit behind clear flip-down baffles, and the door can be reversed to open either way.
Most cheap mini freezers are a hollow box with wire racks, and everything avalanches out the moment you open the door. The clear baffle across each shelf is the design decision that sets this one apart, and it is the feature owners keep coming back to. Everything else is conventional: manual defrost, mechanical thermostat, stainless-look frame.
- 17.5"D x 18.5"W x 32.8"H, 44 lb
- 3 shelves with transparent baffles
- Reaches -13F, quoted under 40dB
- 1-year warranty, 30-day returns
Who it's for
Built for one or two people in an apartment, dorm or RV, or as garage overflow when the kitchen freezer is already full. Households buying half a cow, or anyone unwilling to defrost by hand, should size up to a chest freezer instead.
Pros and cons
- Clear shelf baffles keep contents from tumbling out
- Fits under a counter or in a closet at 32.8 inches tall

- Compressor can run near constantly in warm rooms
- 3.2 cu ft fills up fast for a family
Performance notes
An upright at this size trades some efficiency for access, since cold air spills out every time the door opens, and this one answers that with baffles that keep each shelf's air pocket relatively intact. BODACIOUS quotes -13F within 12 hours of start-up and rates annual consumption at about 157 kWh. Manual defrost keeps the design simple but means scheduling a thaw once frost builds, and the 10-pound-per-shelf limit is the real constraint on loading.
