I traded an old standup freezer for a new standup. The new freezer paid for itself the first year. My electric bill dropped at least $50 month. If I had the space I would have gotten a chest style. If you have an old freezer you may want to invest in a newer pump and door seals for it if the chest itself is in good condition. I wish I would have thought of that when I made my change. The new one would have fit inside the old one.
