Now I know how to shop around for a freezer next time! So I looked everywhere for the size, I was told it was 7.2 based on the craigslist add and I had no reference for how big a 7.2 should have been...So, I looked up the model number and it's a 5.0 cu ft. So with my collar i have one on the floor and one on the hump. It is a very narrow/tall freezer. Well...live and learn i guess. I'm just happy to be part of the keezer family now!
Got any pics of the inside with your keg(s) in it?
Here is the pic of my original setup with one on the floor and one on the hump. Keep in mind that I don't actually plan on keeping the Co2 inside. I just put this thing together yesterday. I then realized after moving both to the right side, though they don't actually sit together on the floor, I could theoretically tilt the one in the upper right and fit another on the hump, not too sure if this would work when it actually has beer in it, it's just an empty demo now
That is a strange box. I have a 5 cu ft and the hump is 1/4 of the floor, not a half like yours. It's a tight fit, but mine holds three cornies and I could have the CO2 inside on the hump. I think mine has better insulation as well.

yeah, that's what I had in mine for my layout...but it literally feels like it's just too small by less then a cm. I tried to cram it, but then I felt the walls starting to bulge and figured it wasn't worth damaging the feezer in any way. Either way, my beer is tasty coming out of a tap now Next project: getting my butt in gear to go PM --> AG!

Reason: i can't spell :P
FWIW, I would turn that freezer into a dedicated fermentation chamber which should hold two fermenters, either buckets or carboys. The hump could be mitigated with a false floor to span the full width. This would probably require an extra tall collar to make it work, but I think it could be done.
Then, get back on Craig's list and look for another freezer that has more usable real estate. I have a 7.5 cu ft Woods model and it will fit four 5 gallon cornies and one three gallon corny on the hump. It makes for a compact keggerator and fits easily in my small kitchen. I use the top as an additional kitchen counter work area.
My wife just got me the 7.2 Kenmore for my 30th and I am in the process of Keezerizing it. I measured it out and should be able to hold at least three 5 gal cornies on the floor. It may even fit four but I only plan on putting in three with the CO2 on the hump with plenty of room for other beverages.
