It measures 59.5cm wide, 63cm deep and 187.5cm high, so it takes up little floor width but needs a tall gap. Capacity is around 263 litres, split across seven shelves and baskets. It uses No Frost, which Indesit describes as frost-free technology that reduces the humidity inside the freezer and prevents ice build-up. There is no defrosting to do. The freezer has an LED display, and a retailer listing gives its energy class as E. Retailer listings also mention a fast-freeze function, a door-open indicator, adjustable front feet and a reversible door hinge. Indesit's own page for the model gives few figures, so check the energy label and datasheet it links to before you buy. The page does not state a cold-garage rating. ### Key specs - Type: Freestanding upright freezer, white - Capacity: Around 263 litres (net) - Frost system: No Frost - Height: 187.5cm - Width: 59.5cm - Depth: 63cm - Energy class: E - Warranty: Register your product and claim your 10 years parts guarantee ## What owners report about the Indesit UI8 F2C W UK We found little owner feedback for this exact model that we could read and list as a source, so we are not reporting an owner pattern for it. Check the owner reviews on the retailer you buy from, and look for comments on noise, drawer layout and how the temperature holds. ## Who the Indesit UI8 F2C W UK suits It suits a household with a kitchen, utility room or hallway that has a clear 187.5cm of height and enough depth at 63cm for the door to open. It is a sensible pick for anyone who wants to stop defrosting and wants the capacity of a family freezer in a 59.5cm-wide cabinet. Look elsewhere if the freezer is going in a garage or outbuilding, since Indesit's page states no cold-garage rating. The Beko CF47591W or Hisense FC200N1AWE1 are chest freezers better suited to that. For more capacity in an upright, the Samsung Bespoke SpaceMax RZ32C7BDES9/EU is bigger. For a low ceiling or a small kitchen, the Beko UFF4584W is an under-counter model. ## Questions about the Indesit UI8 F2C W UK ### How tall is the Indesit UI8 F2C W UK?

We haven't read the review sites for this guide yet, so for now it is led by owners. It ranks products by how happy owners are, holding back any product few owners have rated until more agree. How many rated it and how new it is only settle close calls, and value for money earns its own badge rather than a higher place. We compared 23 models for this guide before settling on these ten. Brands can't pay to be included or to move up. We last checked these picks in November 2026.
