Freezers, frost free or manual defrost?

I didn’t think that there would be an option now. Frost free any day of the week.

I like frost-free.
Why would anyone want to go back to defrosting I wonder?

go for frost free

I have a frost free Beko which I got from Currys. It is excellent, also very quiet running.

Another vote for frost free. I have a hotpoint 50/50 fridge freezer approx 14 years old and 🤞 problem free. It’s so long ago I’d forgotten the unpleasant chore of manually defrosting.

How I wish you could get frost free chest freezers. I spent hours defrosting mine last week . I bought the spray which was mentioned in another thread but think my hairdryer method was probably as good. I might start off with the hair dryer next time then unplud it and spray. My house fridge freezer is no problem you just forget about defrosting .

Thank you all for your help. I have had a look at that Beko and I think it will be the one.

I have a Samsung Upright frost free from Curry's. Got it 10 years ago and never had to defrost it. Still as good as new.

Yes, I’m also in line for a frost free freezer - I think I will go for a Beko

Definitely frost free. Ours is a Beko. We bought it at Currys.

Definitely frost free!

Frost free for years

Frost free definitely- one chore eliminated. I'm on my second fridge freezer and the last one gave me many years of good service.

Apologies for above mess up. We have an upright frost free freezer and it's been with us now for 3+ years and works fine. It doesn't frost up at all. I think it works by evaporating the water that would be frost from a unit in the works. Much better than a similar non- frost free upright we had for many years which was a pain to defrost. I imagine they are all very similar. We got ours online from ao.com. It's a Beko FRFP1685X_SS. You may want to shop around though.

We have a frost free freezers, both uprights, and theybha
