Another refrigerator or just a freezer??

I never have enough room for the stuff in my freezer. Would you buy just a freezer OR buy a refrigerator/freezer combo? Any recommendations???

We have an extra fridge/freezer in our garage and use both parts equally. It's great when we have BBQs or parties. I would do both.

I have a fridge in my kitchen and then a chest freezer in my basement that my parents bought us.

So far I love having it and it's all that I need. I haven't needed extra fridge space or wished that I had it.

Re: Another refrigerator or just a freezer??

we had 2 refrigerators in the garage, then one went and we got a big freezer but that didnt last too long, so we sold the freezer and bought anew refrigerator.

We need refrigerator space for BBQ rather than freezer space

I just bought a small chest freezer. That was all we needed to add. Love it.

For those of you who have it in the garage - do you find that it works extra hard to compensate for the heat of the garage? I am dying to get a second freezer, but our garage gets so hot!

I have our freezer in our very hot garage. I can't say I notice anything odd about how it works. I don't think that matters, the cooling goes on inside and it is insulated, kwim?

We have an extra refrigerator in the basement and another in the garage. The one in the garage is a lifesaver when we bbq. The one in the basement is great for extra storage Chat Icon

I agree - We have an extra refrigerator/freezer in our attached garage, and I use the refrigerator part a LOT for entertaining. So I am glad I have it!

Plus, I use the garage refrigerator to keep "extras" of items we go through a lot (milk, yogurt) and items that we don't use every day (like special sauces and condiments). I try to keep my kitchen fridge stocked with items that we need on a daily basis and use all the time.

Re: Another refrigerator or just a freezer??

Thanks for all your input. I don't entertain that much...so I think we are just going to do the freezer.
