Fermentation Fridge/Freezer
I am in need of a fermentation fridge or freezer, to enable better control of fermentation temperatures. I am wanting to get an STC-1000 (or similar) digital controller, with my existing heat tile for heating and a fridge or freezer for cooling.
I want something to put two 30L buckets in, to allow for a couple of brews at once. Plus when I'm not fermenting I'd like to use it as a beer fridge to keep bottles cool. So I'm looking at either a fridge or a vertical freezer.
Does anyone have any suggestions as to which is better? I've read the freezers can be better as the compressor is more powerful so can crash cool. Thoughts?

There's a http://www.brewshop.co.nz/copper-tun-heat-pad.html leaning up against the back LHS corner. I brought it years ago for around $30 from memory. Keep a watch out on brewshop or any other homebrew supplies websites or shops - I'm sure they have them on sale on the odd occassion.
Keep a watch on trademe too (ie. http://www.trademe.co.nz/home-living/lifestyle/other/auction-613059...
