Why this counter freezer earns its place
The Polar U-Series DL916 is a double-door counter freezer with a rear upstand. At 1360 mm wide, 700 mm deep and 960 mm high, it's built to drop into a kitchen line, putting 187 litres of net frozen product under the worktop where the section needs it while giving a solid working surface above.
Rated to climate class 4, it's built to hold -10 to -20 °C in the warm, busy ambient of a working kitchen rather than a cool store room. Two doors let a chef reach one half at a time, so less cold is lost each time the freezer is opened during service. With two adjustable shelves inside, you can organise stock by type or prep stage.
Built on 50 mm insulation and running on R290 low-GWP refrigerant, the unit pulls 470 W at steady state — roughly 40% less than the three-door model, which matters if you're on a tight electrical budget. As a counter unit it's designed to sit in the run rather than stand alone, with the upstand protecting the wall behind. Leave clear airflow to the ventilation side and allow door clearance when siting.
