Reliable, versatile, and great value for money
After spending time using the Chiq 380L Vertical Hybrid Freezer, I’ve come to appreciate it as a practical and thoughtfully designed appliance that suits the way I manage food storage at home. Its 380‑litre capacity is genuinely well‑balanced — large enough to handle bulk buys and long‑term storage, yet still slim enough to fit neatly into a standard laundry or kitchen alcove without dominating the space. The internal layout is one of the first things that stood out to me. The shelving is arranged in a way that makes it easy to keep everything organized, and I don’t find myself digging around to reach items at the back. For a vertical unit, the accessibility is excellent. The control panel is straightforward and uncluttered. Adjusting temperatures or switching modes doesn’t require navigating through complicated menus. It’s the kind of interface that feels intuitive from day one, which I appreciate in an appliance I use frequently. Energy consumption is reasonable for a hybrid unit of this size. The build quality is solid overall, though some components — particularly the plastic shelving — feel more functional than premium. It’s not a deal‑breaker, but worth noting if you prefer heavier‑duty fittings. The door seal is firm, which is good for maintaining temperature but does mean the door requires a confident pull to open. Interior lighting is adequate, though deeper shelves could benefit from brighter illumination.

Chia 280l freezer
Very happy with the product. Using it only as a freezer since that was the purpose of the purchase. Right size for my needs. So far I can recommend it.

Great Freezer
I have had this Freezer for about a month now never knew at first you could buy a Fridge and Freezer in one. Plenty of space for everything I mainly needed more Freezer space but at least when I don't need so much Freezer space I can change to Fridge if needed.

Practical
Looked for an upright freezer that only had shelves. Drawers can be cumbersome as you get older. So much more practical and easy to use, and big so you can fit so many frozen items. Have a choice to convert to fridge in the future if needed. You have the choice. We pulled out half the drawers and using the shelves. Perfect! Awesome staff with knowledge that showed this feature (no other store did.

Garage placement fit
Best in sheltered indoor or utility spaces with enough width and depth; confirm ambient suitability before garage use.

Q: Will this upright freezer fit a standard kitchen alcove?
A: It suits many full-height alcoves. CHiQ CSH379NBSL5 is 71cm wide and 77cm deep, so check the cavity plus room for the door to open fully, especially if walls, cabinetry or a walkway sit close beside it.
Q: Is it better for organised packs than oversized bulk items?
A: Yes. The upright layout and five shelves make boxed foods, containers and labelled meal prep easier to sort and reach. Very large or awkward items usually fit less neatly than they do in a deep chest-style freezer.
Q: What happens if I accidentally leave the door open?
A: A door alarm sounds if the door is left open for a period, so there is an extra prompt to close it before too much cold air escapes. It is a useful backup, but it does not replace checking the door is fully sealed.
Q: Does the left hinge model include parts for door reversal?
A: Yes. CHiQ CSH379NBSL5 comes as a left-hand opening model, and the kit to change it to right-hand opening is included. That gives more placement flexibility if a wall, cupboard or traffic path suits the opposite swing better.
Q: How many cooling modes does this CHiQ hybrid freezer have?
A: CHiQ CSH379NBSL5 has six temperature modes: Freeze, Soft Freeze, Chill, Fridge, Cellar and Fast Freeze. The flexibility helps when storage needs change, but it still runs as one whole cabinet rather than separate zones at the same time.
Q: Is the inverter system suitable for open-plan kitchen spaces?
A: Yes. CHiQ CSH379NBSL5 uses an inverter system that runs more consistently at controlled speeds, and it is described as quieter than traditional compressors. A sound rating is not listed, so expect reduced compressor noise, not silence.
