Beko ZA630 Freezer - a good price for a good freeze

Advantages: Cheap, good storage
Disadvantages: It does look cheap

Beko ZA630 All in all you get what you pay for with this freezer. For only £150 or so it is a good buy. The three storage departments are quite large and you can fit all of your essentials in the compartments. As yet (after 6 months) I have not found the need to defrost it. I am sure this will come in time. The storage compartment draw doors are acutally quite robust and unlike other freezer compartment doors, they do actually stay in place ...
...actual freezer itself is quite light and I managed to pick it up and move it myself without too much bother. This is a good little freezer and I would buy one again if it remained at this type of price - hopefully I can come back in a couple of years and report that it is still going strong! ...

Should be called Coldpoint

Advantages: large capacity, silent running, A rated, relaible temp gauge, even freezing, easy to wipe clean
Disadvantages: none really unless you dont have space for one

...I knew I wanted a Hotpoint or Whirlpool, having experienced the very best of customer service previously when needing a repair from these two companies, not to mention the low cost of out of warranty repair by an engineer. Scouting about, I found this model seemed to fit all my requirements, and the price was quite reasonable as well, being under £500. So, a year on, how have I found this? To be quite honest, I am so pleased it is almost ridiculous. ...
...shallow one, made for ice cream, ice cubes (trays included, as well as a drinks cooler board for taking on picnics) and the like, and the bottom most one is deep but has a sort of triangular bottom to accomodate the inner workings of the freezer. The other four drawers are deep and fairly wide as this freezer is roughly the same size of a full sized fridge freezer. The door is reversible, so you can hang it either side, which is very convenient as ...

Hotpoint FZ175 is a great freezer with 1 great flaw...

Advantages: Works very well and no frost build up at all
Disadvantages: Poor drawer front design

Fabulous freezer with no defrosting exactly as it claims. Unfortunately there seems to be a basic design flaw in that the drawer fronts on ALL drawers cracked within 6 months of purchase simply as a result of normal pulling open of the drawers. The plastic seems too brittle. All were replaced (but the entire drawer- not just the clip-on fronts...) and for a further 8 months all is well. Yesterday one drawer shattered completely when pulled open- ...

Whirlpool AFB Economy Freezer low cost but poorly featured

Advantages: Low cost
Disadvantages: design errors, no temperature guage, no internal light, door jamming, no defrost function

I purchased this freezer around three months ago from Currys during the sale attracted by the low cost of £159 however whilst the delivery and service from Currys was excellent the product has some small issues to be considered. Note Currys have a very transparent pick up of your old freezer that works very well. Firstly there is no automatic defrost with this model and a regular defrost routine is advised as after a while the drawers will start ...
...are not securely fixed into the recesses in the freezer walls (they slide in and are restrained by the rear pipe structure) and as a result slightly shift during use and cause drawer jams. The freeing of the drawers means removing all the drawers then reinstalling carefully - then its OK for a while. It is possible that they have shifted during transit but I have checked them - this problem could possibly be a design compromise to reduce cost but ...
