Naaa.. it's the 210 litre one. Just big enough. I got it especially so I can brew with US05 in summer and also have the choice for making proper lagers and pilsners + cold crashing. Winner.

That's where this purchase of mine came from .. I googled gumtree for 2nd hand freezer - saw Defy 210L in Atlantis for R2500 .. so I googled the full price - found HiFi Corp had one on special for R3000 (down from 3300 I think) and the makro had same defy on special for R3000 - then I saw the Hisense for R2600 - thought fukkkit almost same price as second hand one plus I get 4 year warranty with it. Damn

EDIT:
I got an old fridge in my garage that's out of gas. So, I got a quote to fix. R280 for call-out. R600 for regas. R300 to find and repair leak. Then I still sit with an old fridge. Almost easier just to buy a new one. If you strip the old fridge from it's copper and aluminium then you'll get R300 from scrap yard.

Not far off versus 210L for R2600. Will probably be around there when on special

1 benefit versus an upright fridge: it 'holds' most of the cold air when you open it.

The benefit from an upright is the condensation droplets runs out and it;s lined with plastic (no rust) ... in a CF its collects at the bottom ... leads to mildew and later rust
