The upright freezer offered from Whirlpool is a bit smaller than most uprights, at 61 inches in height, 30 inches in width, and 31 inches in depth.

It comes with lots of bells and whistles: It is EnergyStar rated, frost free, has an adjustable temperature control, a temperature monitor alarm, a fast-freeze feature, an interior light, a power-indicator light, and eight interior shelves (three removable) and five door shelves. This model is also ice-maker ready, if you have a water hook-up. The price is $549.

For $449, the chest freezer is EnergyStar certified and has a temperature alarm, adjustable thermostat, power indicator light, key-eject lock, interior light, commercial-rated power cord, and four baskets.

Your available space needs are 46 inches in width, 34 inches in height, and 29 1/2 inches in depth. Like most chest freezers, this model has only manual defrost.
