alt Hacker NewsMost people in dense urban areas would actually pay less. By going vertical you’re freezing a whole m2 that was otherwise necessarily occupied by the fridge. In most places, 300 kWh is much cheaper than an extra irrevocable m2 for your fridge.
Plus, a horizontal fridge is just… convenient. You can’t even put things on top of a vertical fridge.

But if I put things on top of it, now I can't get at the food.
I mean, I have one of these as a meat freezer, and sometimes I put things on top of it, and then my wife gets mad at me and moves that thing somewhere because otherwise nobody can open it.
Things on top of my vertical fridge on the other hand (my cat for example), can stay there indefinitely.
I literally don't understand this comment at all. What point are you trying to make?
Did you by any chance switch "vertical" and "horizontal" at every point in your comment?
I put things on top of my vertical fridge all the time. Also, how do you access a chest fridge with items sitting on top of lid?
