Popular PickWorth considering when the lock matters as much as the cold. At 1.1 cubic feet this is a supplementary freezer, but few units this size ship with a keyed lock and a thermostat that reaches -11F.

A sensible pick when the constraint is floor space rather than budget. Just treat manual defrost and the tiny footprint as the deal, not as flaws to work around.

One of the more flexible upright units at this size, with frost free operation as the real selling point. Inspect it thoroughly at delivery before the driver leaves.

A genuinely cold little box that punches above its cubic footage, and Energy Star rated. Order with the expectation of checking it carefully for dent damage on arrival.

A large-capacity, switchable fridge/freezer that most home reviewers rate as sturdy and reliable, with one commercial user flagging repair support as a weak point.

Handy as a dedicated overflow freezer for meats, ice cream or medical items, and quiet enough for a bedroom. Treat the lock as a deterrent rather than security.

A flexible second unit with a genuinely useful fridge or freezer switch and a front temperature readout. Sheet metal is thin, so unbox it carefully and check for dents before the return window closes.

A sensible pick for one or two people who need overflow freezer space in a tight footprint, with shelf baffles that solve the usual mini-freezer avalanche.

Garage-rated cooling in a genuinely compact freezer works well for the price, but shipping damage complaints show up often enough to warrant inspecting the box on arrival.

The drawer layout is the reason to choose this over a chest unit at similar capacity. Build quality is the gamble, so unbox and inspect it while the delivery crew is still there.

A reasonably priced frost-free option for a tight 24-inch space, but confirm your installation won't expose the black side panels and check for ice buildup around the fan after extended use.


A flexible fridge-or-freezer unit that fits low-ceiling spaces well. Shipping damage and an unmarked temperature dial are recurring complaints worth checking before buying.

A small, organized upright freezer for apartment and overflow use, best suited to buyers who value shelf access enough to accept manual defrost.

A reasonable small footprint upright when you want frozen food visible and reachable rather than stacked in a chest well. Buy on capacity honestly: 1.1 cubic feet is a shelf, not a stockpile.


A compact convertible unit that runs quiet and accurate when it arrives undamaged, though shipping damage was a real recurring issue in the review sample.

This outdoor freezer holds up as a weatherproof, frost-free built-in option, provided you are fine with a black cabinet and stainless door rather than an all-stainless exterior.

A straightforward 20 cu ft upright freezer with useful self-closing doors, though the mixed rating here suggests checking delivery condition carefully on arrival.

A well-built compact freezer when it arrives working, though one documented case of early frost buildup and compressor noise means it is worth confirming the seller's return process before buying.

A 49 cu ft two-door commercial freezer with digital temperature control and a strong compressor warranty, though inspect deliveries carefully given at least one reported dented panel.

A 17 cu ft convertible fridge/freezer with auto defrost and ENERGY STAR certification, liked by early reviewers though the rating reflects only two reviews so far.

A basic, space-saving upright freezer suited to supplemental bulk storage, though its low average rating from a small review count is worth weighing before buying.

Two out of two reviewers rate this freezer's ice maker a dealbreaker due to an unrepairable water line leak, so weigh that risk carefully against the 19 cu. ft. frost-free storage it otherwise offers.
