Description
A chest freezer that does not mind the cold. Belling's Frost Shield lets the BCFE151 run in ambient temperatures as low as -15°C, which is what makes it suitable for a garage, shed or utility room that is not heated. Inside, 142 litres of four-star space take bulk buys, batch cooking and the Christmas order, with an interior basket for the small things.
The electronic control panel is on the front, so there is no reaching inside to adjust it, and the Super Freeze function speeds up freezing for freshly added food. A recessed handle keeps the lid flush, and a front access spout drains defrost water. The freezer measures 84.5cm high, 70.5cm wide and 54.5cm deep, and is rated E for energy at 182kWh a year.
