Is the Tabu 3.6 Cu.ft Upright Freezer worth it?

For a tight space and light freezing needs, yes. It is small, efficient at about 100 kWh per year, and priced for a budget. If you freeze in bulk or want frost-free operation, a larger self-defrosting upright is a better fit.

How often do I have to defrost it?

It is manual defrost, so plan on defrosting when frost gets roughly a quarter inch thick, often every few months in humid rooms. Empty it, unplug it, and let the ice melt.

How much food does 3.6 cu. ft. hold?

Roughly 125 to 130 liters of usable space, enough for a few bags of frozen goods, several stacked containers and a couple of ice cream tubs. It is not a bulk-buy freezer.

Can I put it in a garage or against a wall?

It needs 10 inches of clearance at the back and both sides for airflow, so leave that gap. Check the room's temperature range before putting it in an unheated garage.

Which way does the door open?

The door is reversible, so it can swing left or right to suit your layout. It opens to the full 21.5-inch depth.

Compact freezers usually dip during late-summer clearance and Black Friday sales. Watch the price history and buy when it drops below its recent average.

Our take on the Tabu 3.6 Cu.ft Upright Freezer

The Tabu 3.6 Cu.ft Upright Freezer is a compact black upright freezer with a single reversible-swing door and two toughened glass shelves. It uses about 100 kWh per year and has electronic controls, and Tabu lists it for both home and commercial use.
