Freezer, chest freezer and Co.: 5 freezers for every need
A small supply never hurts: Chest freezers and freezers are super practical for storing food carefully for a long time. Fresh food can also be frozen and then thawed and consumed as needed. We introduce you to five different devices.
What types of freezers are there?
Aside from the freezer compartments in many refrigerators, chest freezers and freezers exist as separate devices. A chest freezer can be opened upwards, while the freezer is designed like a classic refrigerator. In addition, the devices differ in size, capacity and design. There are three basic types:
You can set up a free-standing freezer independently of the components of a fitted kitchen. On the other hand, built-in and built-under freezers can be integrated into the kitchen unit.

How long does food keep in the freezer?
Meat, fish, vegetables, bread – frozen food does not last forever. As a rule of thumb, the more fat a food contains, the shorter you can store it.
- Fish and meat: about three months
- Vegetables: six to 12 months
- Fruit: ten to 12 months
- Bakery products: four to six months
If you freeze food, you should also pay attention to the temperature in the freezer. It should be at least -18 degrees.
