Why this upright freezer earns its place
The HOST HOST1027UF is an upright freezer for kitchens that want proper frozen storage without the premium of a stainless steel finish or the footprint of a full-size cabinet. Finished in white, it holds 365 litres gross and 258 litres of usable capacity across six fixed shelves — a practical size for independent kitchens, takeaways and smaller catering operations that need dedicated frozen storage alongside their main fridge.
The cabinet runs down to -25°C, held by fan-assisted cooling that keeps performance consistent through busy service. At Energy Class B with an EEI of 32.6%, it's efficient for its size, drawing 210W at 230V and costing 894.3 kWh a year to run — a figure worth checking against your tariff if you're weighing it against a smaller or larger option.
Built with 60mm of cabinet insulation, the freezer is rated for ambient temperatures of 10°C to 32°C and runs on R600a refrigerant, keeping the environmental footprint down. The lockable door has a removable gasket for security and easy cleaning, and a digital control and display take the guesswork out of monitoring the set temperature. Fixed rear castors make positioning straightforward for a 74kg cabinet, and it's backed by a 1-year parts-only warranty.
