IceKingCF61W

Just 36cm wide
Counterbalanced Lid
One Basket
Safe for Garage Use

IN A SENTENCE...
The slimmest chest freezer in the UK at just 36cm wide offers 51 litres of storage

IN DETAIL

This new petite unit from Iceking is just 36cm wide which means that it can fit into some challenging spaces that a normal freezer may not.

Like all IceKing freezers, it has their Freezer Safe Technology which means it can be used in temperatures down to -15 degrees C - great for garages and outbuildings.

The compact dimensions means it only has 51 litres of space on offer but that's still enough to store a decent amount of frozen food.

It's very basic and there are no fancy frills such as a lockable lid or light, but there is a high temperature alarm warning, one basket (just squeezes in!) and a 2 year guarantee is standard.

The freezer does have a counterbalanced lid - this means it will stay open and won't slam down on you while you're digging around inside.
