The Avanti VF801W is a 7.4 cubic foot upright freezer that stands out from the budget competition by including a built-in lock and key on the door. That makes it a smart pick for a shared garage, a workshop, a hunting cabin, a fraternity house, or anywhere else where you want to keep roommates, kids, or visitors from helping themselves to your frozen steaks and ice cream. The frost-free cooling system means you do not have to defrost it annually, which is unusual at this price point and a real plus for a busy household. Inside you get four glass shelves that adjust to fit tall items and four clear door bins that hold bags of vegetables and frozen meals. The electronic temperature controls are on the outside of the door, the interior LED lighting is bright enough to see every shelf, and the reversible door hinge lets you flip it to open from either side. A well-rounded choice for the homeowner who wants a lock, frost-free operation, and a reasonable price in one package.
