conical vs. upright fridge/freezer

[meadsupporter]

I know there is a 7.5G heating and cooling conical fermenter that is sold by morebeer, but the price is what turns me off.



So, can anyone here recommend a fridge that can be used to ferment the brew?

I will not be using it as a serving platform, and just for fermenting my brew inside an ale pale. A large size is not necessary as I will only need room to fit the brew bucket/ale pale with the airlock.

I recommend looking for the cheapest craigslist fridge you can find. I found one from the 70s, its yellow, for $20. I am using a ebay aquarium controller to maintain temps. I made a wood floor out of scrap I had. I can fit 3 cornies and 1 carboy or 2 caboys/buckets. It works very well for me.
