I posted this about a year ago.

" Having replaced my faithful 32 YO but very dead fridge wiith a 358L chest freezer, I noticed that I rarely heard the freezer (set on 3C) running, so I put an hourmeter on it and over 120 hours, the compressor ran for 18.5 hours. Now this thing draws only one amp so over a year its going to cost me about fifty bucks. The old fridge drew 1.6A and it ran most of the time. If I said it ran 3/4 of the time, it cost $350.00 per year.
The freezer cost $400.00 so by June 2007, it will have paid for itself, so turf those cranky old fridges folks and save the planet. "

Also they are so much tidier. The accessibility to the kegs and associated hoses in a fridge gets totally out of hand if you try and store more than two kegs. In my 360L freezer, I can store 4 kegs and two jerrys and everything is accessible all the time. No more having to empty the fridge to get to the rear kegs.
