This New Chest Freezer From Midea Is Built for Nigerian Homes. Here’s Why It Belongs in Yours.

This year, I promised not to stress about food going bad. Between the inconsistent power supply and rising food costs, my freezer is the hardest-working appliance in my home.
Midea gets that — and that’s precisely why the new chest freezer lineup is worth discussing.
It’s such an adult move, having a deep freezer along with a refrigerator. But now? I can bulk buy and chill — literally. Midea’s chest freezer ensures I have a smooth, stress-free life. With stable temperature sensors, I don’t need to check and adjust frequently. It just works — consistently — keeping everything from fresh produce to leftovers exactly how I need them.

Midea’s chest freezer can keep food frozen for up to 120 hours during a power outage. That’s five whole days, so I no longer panic when the lights stay off longer than usual. No power? No problem. Midea stays cold, and even when power is back, its Outage Memory feature automatically restores the last temperature settings.
This freezer gives my fridge a break. It’s convertible, allowing you to switch between freezer and fridge modes as needed. If I’m hosting guests, I just stock up on drinks and chill them. If it’s the start of a new month, I can buy as much chicken as I want and store it in the freezer. Plus, with deep-freezing technology that goes as low as -30°C, everything from soups to frozen meats stays in great condition.
I also enjoy having the freedom to buy food on my schedule — whether that’s fruits for my smoothies or prepped meals I’ve made for the week. Knowing that everything is properly stored and fresh just takes a bit of stress out of everyday life.
There are many more reasons to love the Midea Inverter Chest Freezer.
It’s Quiet
I find something about the gentle hum of a fridge comforting. I’ve always enjoyed that low, steady sound because it lets me know things are running smoothly. It's as quiet as a library operating at just 37 decibels (dB).
Plus, its high energy efficiency keeps power bills down—even as it quietly does its job.
It’s Hands-Free
You know those annoying freezer lids that slam shut? This freezer has a multi-angle hover door that stays open between 30° and 80°, so you can use both hands without propping it open with your arms.
It Comes in Different Sizes to Fit Your Lifestyle

I’m not the tallest person, and I live mostly alone. So the BD102 model serves me well. It’s sleek and compact at 547 x 446 x 850 mm, with a net capacity of 99L. This model comes up just above mid-thigh. Standing next to it, it’s about where your fingertips would rest when your arms are relaxed at your sides. This makes it a good fit for small kitchens or spaces where you want storage without crowding the room.
There are two more models: the BD146 and the BD202.
The BD146 offers a net capacity of 143L for small households. It’s a good balance of size and function, as tall as the BD102 but slightly bigger at 600 x 560 x 850 mm.
Need something more? The BD202 model offers a spacious 198L capacity and 770 x 560 x 850 mm dimensions. It’s better suited for large households, food vendors, or anyone who buys in bulk and needs reliable, long-term freezing.
