Whirlpool 315L Chest Freezer - White vs 437L Chest Freezer - White — Comparison

The Whirlpool WHM3112 315L Chest Freezer - White is £459, while the Whirlpool WHM46122 437L Chest Freezer - White costs £519, placing both in Whirlpool’s large chest-freezer range. WHM3112 is the smaller and cheaper option for serious but not extreme frozen storage, whereas WHM46122 is the step-up model for households needing maximum volume. Since both are chest freezers with E energy ratings and fast-freeze capability, the comparison is mainly capacity, basket count and price.

WHM3112 offers 315L capacity, Fast freeze, two freezer baskets, LED lighting and an E energy rating. WHM46122 increases capacity to 437L, keeps Fast Freeze and LED lighting, and doubles the supplied basket count to four freezer baskets, also with an E energy rating. The larger model gives 122L more space for only £60 extra, which is a strong upgrade if you have the floor space. WHM3112 is still large, but it is easier to justify when storage needs are high rather than very high.

WHM3112 suits families who want a big freezer for bulk shopping, batch cooking and seasonal storage, but do not need the biggest chest freezer available in this selection. It is also the better choice if available floor space is limited, although dimensions are not supplied here. WHM46122 suits large households, home caterers, allotment growers or anyone who stocks up heavily at wholesale-style shops. The extra baskets should also help keep a very large chest freezer more organised, reducing the usual problem of items disappearing at the bottom. This distinction is especially useful when balancing appliance footprint, storage habits and how often the freezer is opened.

Bottom line: choose WHM3112 if 315L is enough and you want the lower £459 price / opt for WHM46122 if you can use 437L capacity, four baskets and a strong £519 capacity upgrade.
