Chest Freezer and Refrigerator

Post by Jimmy Orkin »

I just saw this on Costco's website. Its a chest freezer that can also be a refrigerator. It has a way to drain condensate.

This might be better than a standard chest freezer used as a kegerator.

Here is the Costco site link: Costco Link

very cool! I wonder how well it would hold up vs a freezer using a temp controller, or is it just your standard freezer with a different temp controller with a different temp range?

I am assuming it will deal with condensation better. not rust or build up water and mold.

We just replaced our fridge out back with a larger appliance that is both freezer or refrigerator. They are more common now. The 21 cubic food would make a nice ferm chamber.
