Hisense FC702SH is now in stock at Mascom International for KSh 148,500, brand new and sealed, with 702 litres of storage under two hinged lids. The Hisense FC702SH pairs a 360-degree cooling layout with a Fast Freeze function, an adjustable thermostat, LED interior lighting and a 3-star energy rating. It runs on R600 hydrocarbon refrigerant and stays at or below 40 dB(A) while working. At about KSh 212 per litre, it is the largest single chest freezer in the Hisense range we carry. Collect it from Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD.
The Hisense FC702SH is built for businesses that measure stock in crates and cartons, not shopping bags. Meat and fish distributors, dairy cooperatives, large hotels, event caterers, agro-processors and exporters share one problem. Several small freezers mean several compressors, several sockets and stock scattered across the room. One 702-litre cabinet pulls that stock into a single footprint with a single thermostat to check. Butchers supplying hotel kitchens from Burma Market, caterers preparing for weekend weddings, and processors holding frozen fruit pulp for export all gain one controlled cold space they can audit in minutes.
Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya that treat commercial freezers as a special order, Mascom International keeps this unit ready for dispatch. Compared with buying two FC40DD glass-top freezers from the same Hisense range for 602 litres combined, the Hisense FC702SH adds 100 litres while running one compressor. Buyers throughout Kenya tell us the twin-lid layout lets them separate fast-moving stock from reserve stock without exposing the whole cabinet. Pay-on-arrival delivery reaches all 47 counties, with same-day delivery across Nairobi and its environs. Walk in Monday to Saturday to inspect the lids, baskets and thermostat on the Hisense FC702SH before you commit.
Common Questions About the Hisense FC702SH
Is the Hisense FC702SH worth KSh 148,500 for a commercial business in Kenya?
Yes, if you need more than 600 litres of frozen storage in one cabinet. At KSh 148,500, the Hisense FC702SH works out at about KSh 212 per litre of capacity. Spread across three years of daily trading, that is roughly KSh 136 per day before electricity. For a distributor who regularly loses cartons to an overloaded small freezer, the larger cabinet earns its place quickly. Mascom International sells it brand new and sealed, with pay-on-arrival delivery so you inspect the unit before paying.
Should I buy one Hisense FC702SH or two FC40DD freezers?
Choose the Hisense FC702SH for the largest single cabinet; choose two FC40DD units only if customers must see the stock. Two FC40DD freezers give 602 litres combined, spread across two glass-top cabinets, two compressors and two power sockets. The Hisense FC702SH gives 702 litres, 100 litres more, from one compressor, one plug and one floor footprint. Solid insulated lids also hold cold better than display glass when staff open the cabinet all day. The FC40DD remains the right pick for supermarket and ice cream counters where shoppers browse through the lid.
Hisense FC702SH vs Ramtons CF/234: which suits bulk storage better?
The Hisense FC702SH holds 256 more litres than the Ramtons CF/234, which offers 446 litres under a similar double-door layout. That gap equals nearly 13 extra twenty-litre crates of stock. Choose the Ramtons if your floor space is tight and your frozen stock rarely passes 400 litres. Choose the Hisense FC702SH when you would otherwise add a second freezer within the year. One 702-litre cabinet means one compressor to service, one socket to protect and one temperature to log, instead of two of each.
How does the Hisense FC702SH handle power cuts and voltage swings in Kenya?
The Hisense FC702SH holds frozen stock longest when both lids stay shut during a Kenya Power outage. A full chest freezer keeps cold better than a half-empty one, because the frozen goods themselves act as stored cold. Chest designs also lose less cold than upright freezers when opened, since cold air sinks and stays in the well. Plug the unit into a quality voltage guard to shield the compressor from surges when supply returns. The power indicator light confirms at a glance that mains power is back.
How much stock fits inside the Hisense FC702SH?
The Hisense FC702SH holds 702 litres, about the volume of 35 twenty-litre crates packed edge to edge. For a trader moving Lake Victoria tilapia through Kisumu, a full weekly consignment can sit in one cabinet rather than three. The twin lids divide the well into two working zones, so fast-moving stock sits under one lid and reserve stock under the other. Removable baskets keep small packs near the top. Packed volume runs slightly below 702 litres once you allow for baskets and airflow space.
How quickly does the Hisense FC702SH freeze a fresh delivery?
The Hisense FC702SH includes a Fast Freeze function that drives the cabinet colder to handle a warm incoming load. Switch it on a few hours before a large delivery arrives, so the cabinet is at its coldest when fresh stock goes in. The 360-degree cooling design runs a D-type evaporator pipe around the cabinet walls, so cold reaches the corners as well as the centre. That matters for dairy cooperatives freezing milk products and exporters holding fruit pulp that must freeze evenly to keep its quality.
Who should buy the Hisense FC702SH, and who should skip it?
The Hisense FC702SH suits businesses storing more than 600 litres of frozen stock: meat and fish distributors, dairy cooperatives, large hotels, event caterers and agro-processors. Resort hotels in Naivasha and Diani running daily buffets are a typical fit. Skip it if you are a household, a small kiosk or a single-counter butchery, because a half-empty 702-litre cabinet wastes floor space and power. Those buyers are better served by the smaller FC245HS or FC297SH, both stocked at Mascom International. Shops that display stock should choose the glass-top FC40DD.
Where should I install the Hisense FC702SH, and how loud is it?
The Hisense FC702SH runs at no more than 40 dB(A), roughly library-quiet, so it can sit in a back office or hotel storeroom without disturbing staff. Place it on a level floor with clearance around the sides and back, so the compressor can release heat. Avoid direct sun or a spot beside cooking ranges, which forces longer compressor cycles. The built-in drain makes defrosting simpler, letting meltwater run into a basin. Measure doorways before delivery, since a 702-litre chest is a wide cabinet.
Can the Hisense FC702SH stay open hands-free while staff load it?
Yes. Each lid on the Hisense FC702SH is self-standing and holds open at 30 or 60 degrees, so staff can carry crates in with both hands. The recessed handles sit flush, avoiding snags on trolleys and aprons in busy kitchens. Its rust-resistant exterior suits humid coastal kitchens in Mombasa, where cheaper cabinets often show corrosion along the base. LED interior lighting keeps labels readable during night stock-taking, shortening the time each lid stays open.
Technical Specifications
Storage Capacity and Interior Layout
- 702-litre total capacity, about the volume of 35 twenty-litre crates, sized for distributor and processor stock levels.
- Twin-lid layout splits access into two zones, so opening one side leaves the other half's cold undisturbed.
- Adjustable plastic basket with rounded corners keeps small packs off the floor of the well and easy to lift.
- Removable baskets lift out completely when you need the full depth for large cuts, cartons or whole fish.
- Smooth interior surface wipes clean quickly, which matters during food-safety inspections in meat and dairy premises.
- Deep single well accepts long items such as whole carcass quarters and large fish that upright freezers cannot hold.
Cooling System and Freezing Performance
- 360-degree cooling wraps the cabinet walls, so cold reaches every corner instead of collecting near one side.
- D-type evaporator pipe increases contact with the inner wall, transferring cold into the cabinet more evenly.
- Fast Freeze drives the cabinet colder for fresh deliveries, locking in texture before large ice crystals form.
- Even cooling reduces warm spots that could soften stock along the walls during long storage periods.
- Top-opening chest design holds cold air inside the well, because cold air sinks rather than spilling outward.
- Full cabinets recover temperature faster after opening, since frozen stock itself stores cold between compressor cycles.
Temperature Control and Monitoring
- Adjustable thermostat with a simple dial lets staff set the cabinet colder or warmer to suit each load.
- Power indicator light confirms at a glance that the freezer is receiving supply after an interruption.
- LED interior lighting shows labels and dates clearly, cutting the time lids stay open during stock checks.
- Simple knob control keeps operation easy for rotating kitchen, warehouse and cold-room staff without training.
- One thermostat for 702 litres means one reading to log daily instead of tracking several separate freezers.
- Place a separate freezer thermometer inside to record exact readings for HACCP logs and export audits.
Energy Efficiency and Running Noise
- 3-star energy rating signals moderate electricity use, an important figure for a freezer that runs 24 hours daily.
- R600 hydrocarbon refrigerant carries zero ozone-depletion impact and far lower global-warming potential than older gases.
- Noise ceiling of 40 dB(A) keeps the compressor quiet enough for offices, hotel corridors and shop back rooms.
- Built for 50Hz mains supply, matching the national grid frequency without any converter or adapter equipment.
- Energy-saving design works best fully loaded, since a packed cabinet holds cold and cycles the compressor less often.
Lid Design and Build Quality
- Two hinged lids open independently, so staff reach one side without warming the stock stored under the other.
- Self-standing lids hold open at 30 or 60 degrees, freeing both hands to carry heavy crates inside.
- Recessed handles sit flush with the cabinet body, avoiding snags on trolleys, aprons and passing staff.
- Rust-resistant white exterior resists corrosion from humidity, cleaning chemicals and splashes in wet food-handling areas.
- White finish shows dirt clearly, prompting regular cleaning in hygiene-sensitive premises such as butcheries and dairies.
Defrosting and Upkeep
- Built-in water drain lets meltwater run straight into a basin, avoiding the job of bailing water by hand.
- Removable baskets lift out for washing, so the full interior can be cleaned between stock cycles.
- Single compressor to service, instead of two or three smaller units, simplifies maintenance schedules and technician visits.
- Smooth inner walls shed frost and residue easily, shortening downtime when the cabinet is emptied for cleaning.
- Clear access around the cabinet sides and back keeps the compressor cooler and extends its working life.
- A quality voltage guard between socket and plug protects the compressor from surges when mains power returns.
