Upright or chest freezer?

[foodiepep]

i have a small upright freezer as well as a chest freezer. 

I only turn on the upright freezer if what I have won't fit in the chest freezer.  The upright freezer holds very little due to the shelves.  My chest freezer has 2 removable baskets so it isn't too hard to get to the items down the bottom.  On one side I have a heap of frozen soups in take away containers.

i have an upright freezer and i love it as its very easy to organise and access things with the drawers but you cant store the things you can in a chest freezer so i guess it depends on your needs ..i am wanting to get a chest freezer but mainly to store veggies i grow during the year, meat and fish in bulk etc and storing larger meals like lasagne etc....

I have an upright, chest freezers hold more but a lot harder to find and reach things.

Upright for me - we initially had a chest freezer for a number of years but sold it and have had uprights (onto our 2nd upright) far preferable for the same reasons as contained in other posts - have to run, have a great day!!!
