Pros and Cons of Summit
CL2F249 24" Wide Built-In 2-Drawer All-Freezer

Pros

• Versatile Installation: Can be installed built-in under counters or used freestanding, making it flexible for kitchens, bars, and other spaces.
• Customizable Design: Drawers accept overlay panels to blend with existing cabinetry or stand out with stainless steel accents.
• Durable Construction: Fully stainless steel cabinet, drawers, and kickplate resist corrosion and are easy to clean.
• Organized Storage: Two smoothly gliding drawers with adjustable dividers and a removable basket help organize frozen goods efficiently.
• Convenient Features: Frost-free operation with fan-forced cooling, digital thermostat with Celsius/Fahrenheit display, LED lighting, Sabbath mode, temperature memory, and audible alarms improve usability.

Cons

• Limited Capacity: Around 4.26 cu.ft. total space may not suffice for larger families or extensive freezer storage needs.
• Not Energy Star Rated: Lacks an official energy efficiency rating, which could mean relatively higher power use compared to more efficient models.
• Price Point: As a specialty drawer freezer with premium features and customizable panels, it typically costs more per cubic foot than standard undercounter freezers.
• Standard Warranty: Only one-year parts and labor warranty may be short compared with some competing models, though the compressor has an extended warranty period.

Conclusion

The Summit CL2F249 is a stylish and functional undercounter freezer that combines flexible installation, durable stainless-steel build, and user-friendly features like adjustable storage, frost-free operation, digital controls, and audible alarms. Its compact 3.5 cu.ft. capacity and lack of an Energy Star rating make it better suited for smaller spaces or supplemental freezing needs rather than as a primary large-capacity freezer. If you value custom design integration and convenience features in a premium under-counter format, this model offers strong appeal, but those needing more storage or maximum efficiency might prefer larger or more efficient alternatives.
