IN A SENTENCE...
A popular medium sized chest freezer that's safe for use in the garage

IN DETAIL

This is the second smallest model in the current Beko range with just over 200 litres of storage space - that's about 10 bags of food shopping.

Good for the Garage
Despite its relatively entry level status, it does use Beko's FreezerGuard technology which appears on all their current chest freezer range. This makes it suitable for use in garages or outbuildings down to -15 degrees Celsius. Beko CF3205W chest freezer

Otherwise, there aren't many other extras to talk about, such as a lockable lid or no internal light, and only one basket is supplied. However, that is on par with most others in this size and price.

Users like the compact size and the fact that it is suitable for keeping outside the house, but found the lack of a light and the side mounted controls annoying.
