Meeting standards; exceeding guidelines
A freezer's ability to preserve food, offer ample, versatile storage, and provide easy access are all important considerations. Equally important is a freezer's impact on your pocket book and the environment. Whirlpool's EV161NZRQ upright freezer features an ENERGY STAR qualification, signaling that this unit meets, or exceeds, U.S. federal government guidelines for energy efficiency. Because the EV161NZRQ reduces energy consumption when compared to similar, non-ENERGY-STAR-qualified models, it both lowers your household energy costs and helps work toward alleviating energy's burden on the environment.
Space and speed
When you go shopping for a new stand-alone freezer unit, you're looking for three things: ample storage space, easy access, and dependable food preservation. You're looking for the EV161NZRQ from Whirlpool. With its combination of three removable wire shelves, five door shelves, and one baskets, the EV161NZRQ lets you take full advantage of a large 15.8 cu. ft. of storage space. And thanks to the upright, refrigerator-style design, finding that leftover ham, box of popsicles, or TV dinner is a cinch. Finally, ensuring that your food stays cold for extended, dependable storage, the EV161NZRQ features a temperature monitor alarm that lets you know if the temperature rises above a preset level, and a Fast Freeze option that prevents the addition of unfrozen foods from significantly altering the unit's interior temperature.
Frost-free is hassle-free
With its frost-free design, the Whirlpool EV161NZRQ saves you from the hassle of defrosting the freezer. The EV161NZRQ eliminates the build-up of frost in the unit's interior by circulating air that collects any moisture and deposits on the cooling coil. Then, the cooling coil periodically warms just enough to melt the frost, which then flows down to the drain pan where it is evaporated. Frost-free truly is hassle-free.
