Why this beer fridge earns its place
The Polar U-Series UA069 pairs a 465-litre glass door counter fridge with a durable stainless steel prep surface, aimed at kitchens, cafés and bars that want chilled stock visible to staff and customers as well as within reach for prep. Self-closing glass doors and energy-efficient LED lighting put the contents on display without holding the door open to check what's inside.
The 1795mm-wide counter holds six shelves in total — three chilled shelves plus three floor protector shelves — and ventilated cooling keeps temperatures even at +2 to +8°C with rapid recovery after frequent door openings. Rated Climate Class 4 and drawing 300W, the counter is built for consistent day-long service.
Stainless steel construction runs through the interior and exterior, refrigerant is R600a, and the unit is rated Energy Class B at 686.2kWh a year (EEI 15.1%). Automatic defrost and easy-to-remove door seals simplify hygiene and maintenance, a digital controller keeps temperature settings accurate, and built-in castors make positioning straightforward. It's backed by a 2-year parts and labour warranty and weighs 134kg gross.
