Hisense 85L Under Counter Freezer vs Upright No Frost 240L Freezer — Comparison

The Hisense FV105D4BW21 85L Under Counter Freezer is £189 and sits as the compact under-counter model in this comparison, while the Hisense FV298N4ACE Upright No Frost 240L Freezer costs £449 and sits as the larger, more advanced upright freezer. FV105D4BW21 is made for smaller kitchens and basic frozen storage, whereas FV298N4ACE is intended for households that want a main freezer with modern cooling features. Both have an E energy rating, but their specification levels differ sharply.

FV105D4BW21 is described as an under-counter freezer with 82 litres of usable capacity, a 40dB noise level, reversible door and E energy rating. FV298N4ACE steps up to 240L capacity and adds No Frost technology, a multi airflow system, digital display, precise temperature control, interior LED lighting and a Fast Freeze function, also with an E energy rating. The upright model provides roughly 158L more storage, better temperature management and no-frost convenience, while the under-counter model is simpler, smaller and £260 cheaper.

FV105D4BW21 suits singles, couples, student flats, rental kitchens or anyone who only keeps a modest frozen-food selection. It is also useful as a secondary freezer where worktop-height placement matters. FV298N4ACE suits families, meal-preppers and people who buy frozen food in larger quantities, because the 240L capacity and Fast Freeze function are much better for regular big shops. Its digital display and precise controls also suit users who like more visibility over settings. The trade-off is clear: pay more for capacity and convenience, or save money and space with the under-counter model.

Bottom line: choose FV105D4BW21 if you want a £189 under-counter freezer with 82L capacity and a reversible door / opt for FV298N4ACE if you need 240L, No Frost, digital controls and Fast Freeze.
