Was at the Good Guys in the local big smoke looking at fridge+freezers.

Realised they took way too much room so decided the fridge I had was fine and I just needed an upright freezer.

There is a CHIQ CSH311NWL3 Vertical hybrid freezer. This could go in the side passage that opens into the kitchen. So not far away. Present chest freezer would go into the cidery and be used to store apples etc.

Not a lot of room for a decent kitchen even after major renovations.

Anyone know if the CHIQ brand is any good? It does have a 5 year warranty.

5 year warranty because they just give you a new one when the your new one shytes itself.

That's how cheap they are.

CHIQ = Sichuan Changhong Electric Co., Ltd.

Damn it. OK will go back to Good Guys and look at other vertical freezers.

My chest freezer is old so less energy efficient than a current freezer.

Any recommendations?

LG .... Sth Korean

I have 3 LG TVs in the house.... one is at least 15 years old & still going.

I have an LG front load washing machine that is 10 years old.

This might do:

https://www.thegoodguys.com.au/hisense-155l-vertical-freezer-hrvf155

Chest freezers are cheaper but organising stuff in them is difficult.

Hisense are a CCP backed company.

More freezer-only or units that can be fridge or freezer than I thought, e,g:

https://www.eliteappliances.com.au/product/westinghouse-180-litre-white-vertical...

That is a bit small but OK.

Westinghouse are not what they used to be.
Not at all. I would not buy one of those.

Won't have another Westinghouse appliance in my house.

2 x pigeon pair fridge & freezers shyte themselves in a few years.

2x westinghouse dishwashers malfunctioned the same way - flooding out the kitchen & lounge room.

We bought a Westinghouse upright freezer about 11 years ago. It lives in the laundry is still going perfectly after 11 years. It is only a 2 star rating however. Performance wise ... very good. I loved the frost-free aspect as our older freezer had to be manually defrosted from time to time. Sad

This model:

Probably have that put in the garage. Always seems to be someone who has a bad experience like Gnads—looking at the ratings always some have a bad experience doesn’t seem to matter what the item is.
