Any recommendations on models/configurations/brands? Also, placement? I live in Northeast, so part of me thinks it's better to put it in the detached garage. But know a fridge puts off a fair amount of heat, so perhaps there's no real benefit to that.
Also trying to figure out if this is worth it financially. It likely is from a convenience standpoint. if you cook at home with any sort of frequency, the standard fridge does not have a big enough freezer. I'm just trying to calculate energy costs vs food saved and prep time saved(because you can make more at once). I specifically turned down a free full-size freezer from my wife's parents because it was from the 80s and I assumed it would be a beast on electricity costs.
