chest freezer
Top-opening cold storage
A chest freezer is a large freezer that opens from the top rather than the front, with a hinged lid that lifts upward.
The horizontal design allows cold air to stay inside when opened, making it more energy-efficient than upright models.
Chest freezers are common in garages and basements for bulk food storage: We keep a chest freezer in the garage for buying meat in bulk.
