Frigidaire 9 cu ft (EFRF9003) review
Frigidaire 9.0 cu ft Chest Freezer (EFRF9003)
By Tom Calder
Sold as 9 cubic feet (its energy label says 8.6), with almost the same yearly energy use as the 5 cu ft model on its label. A good size for a family that buys meat in bulk. Keep it indoors or in a mild space: the maker doesn't state a garage range.
- Best for
- More room for about the same running cost
- Skip it if
- It's going in a garage that gets very hot or cold
