These are a belt or strap tailor made to fit the compressor (the motor or "pot") of the appliance. The strap contains a heating element that consumes about fifty watts. If one has a crankcase heater it is possible to run a freezer in a garage or unheated outbuilding. It is possible to fit a thermostat so that the heater only powers up in cold weather. Not rocket science is it? In the USA (and you can probably get them over here) it is possible to buy “crankcase heaters”.

He shared the Comet salesperson's opinion that they were more reliable than other big-name brands. The model I have has a lovely, sleek design (taller and narrower than most). It does not frost up - big thumbs up! The drawers are quite roomy. It is about 50:50 (freezer/fridge). The only negative comment I read in the reviews was that shorter people find it difficult to reach the top shelf but I am 5ft 6 and I have had no problems. Hope this helps A x @Katy C
