Any diff between the brands in this small size? Or
should one just shop for price alone?
Id prefer a very efficient one...even if small (5 cu
ft)...... but not sue any diff between brands in this
size range
Advice?

Yes, particularly on how the shelves are done etc.

Nope.

There is on the shelf detail. Some have racks inside
the door and some dont, and some have slide out
bins and some just have fixed shelves.

what brand and model would YOU buy in a 5-7 cubic foot
size Rod?
Given that efficiency and layout is priority

I basically choose from what is available at the time I buy one,
and since they last so long, that varys with the purchase.
What I buy isnt necessarily the same as you either, mine
have to go under an existing cantilevered 20' long bench
which constrains the height of the freezer and I only ever
use verticals, I hate freezers with just a lid.
I also avoid the ones which have the shelves formed
from sheet metal because I have had one of those fail.
Not sure if you can even buy those now tho, its been
quite a while since I bought the last one.

But isn't an upright freezer working against mother
nature every time you pen it.... as cold air would
"fall" out of it rather than being "constrained" in a
chest freezer even if lid opened?
