Hotpoint CS1A300HFA1 Review

This Hotpoint CS1A300HFA1 chest freezer comes in a white finish.

It will need to be manually defrosted from time to time, it is best to do this when you see ice start to form. Otherwise the ice will start to take some of your storage capacity and the compressor will have to work harder to cool your food through all that extra ice.

Inside, there are two baskets where you can keep your most commonly used items, making it easy to retrieve food from. There is also a light to enable you to see more easily inside.

You can set the temperature from the dial at the front of the chest freezer and there is also a warning light which will alert you if the temperature rises to unsafe levels. There is also a fast freeze mode to enable you to rapidly freeze fresh food.

It does have a lock, so no chance of anyone stealing your frozen peas, be careful if you have children though and they decide to play a hardcore version of hide and seek.

The lid is counterbalanced so will stay open at pre determined heights without you needing to prop it open with your hand.

Remember to take a read through my chest freezer buying guide before you make your purchase.
