Why this upright freezer earns its place
The Hoshizaki Compact G297 is a single-door upright cabinet freezer for commercial frozen storage. At 595mm wide, 642mm deep and 1900mm high, it is designed for sites that need a tall freezer cabinet in a relatively narrow footprint rather than a chest freezer or wider double-door unit.
The listing gives 359Ltr capacity, with 346 litres gross volume and 266 litres net volume. Six shelves and hinged front access help keep frozen ingredients, prepared items and packaged stock organised, while fan assist cooling is listed across a -22 to -5 °C range.
The white exterior and white ABS interior suit back-of-house storage areas, and the specification lists 50mm insulation, 230V supply, 112 W rated input, R600a refrigerant with GWP 3 and climate class 4. Energy use is listed at 2.98 kWh/24h, or 1086 kWh/year.
