I recently shopped around for a freezer......ended up deciding on the 7 cubic foot chest freezer at Sam's Club. It's made by G.E. and came with some extras like a divider and lock and 2 baskets and was less then $200.00. The 5 cu. ft model was only $30.00 less but had WAY less room because the conpressor takes up some of the space in all freezers....
I also purchased an inexpensive freezer alarm from Amazon....it constantly gives the inside and outside temp and sounds an alarm if the temp starts going up. Cheap insurance.....
I like the fact that the cold stays "down" when opening a chest freezer. My wife bought plastic baskets for "chicken", "beef", etc so she can quickly get to stuff without digging.
These newer freezers are much more energy efficient then the older ones...
Hope that helps!
