I have wanted an upright freezer for years now.
It has officially become a “need,” in our home. Our Tuesday lunches have made the need for more freezer space very apparent, and today this beauty moved into our garage.
Look at all the pretty storage space! Do you know how many casseroles I will be able to stack on those shelves?

And that basket? Be still my freezer-space-loving heart.
We got an amazing deal on it, and of course, paid in cash.
I cannot wait to get to cooking and baking and filling up my new “baby”!!!
My new freezer is definitely a finer thing.
LOVE it!!!! 🙂 We have a deep freeze as we call it. I couldn’t live without it!

I call the large drop-in freezers a “deep freeze,” myself 🙂
I’m so excited! Thanks for your comment, Friend!

I do NOT know what I would do without my deep freeze. Yay for you to have one now!

Thanks Amy!
Congrats! I would definitely be doing some “Monthly Freezer Baking Days” and some stockpiling of the frozen goods deals when they come around!! Woot!
Thanks Rachel!

@Amy Norton, I saw Jamie Lee Curtis on a rerun of Jay Leno tonight say that she freezes soups in freezer bags laid out flat then stores them upright (like files) in the freezer. (You could use a cookie sheet.) What a way to organize!
Wow! I like the look of the inside of that. What brand did you get? I’ve been thinking about getting one but I guess i never realized they had upright ones.
Hi Becky! It is a Whirlpool. I have to store it in our garage, and I was a bit leery about that, as I have had a friend lose her freezer while it was stored in the garage. I asked the guy about it (very reputable store and workers, so I trust what they say), and he said that some brands do not do well when stored in the garage, for example Fridgidaire does not. He said the Whirlpool will work great in the garage… it will just work a little harder in the summer, and not as hard in the winter 🙂

Oh, happy for you. I think we have the same freezer. A little warning: be very careful how you stack things. A frozen bag of chicken stock falling out when you open the door is always frightening 🙂 You may want to add some small/short cardboard boxes to contain some of your odd shaped items as you fill it up.
*congrats!!*
