Whenever a fridge door is opened, cold air flows out and warm air flows in; the more often the door is opened, the more heat has to be pumped out again.
Why not have a fridge (or freezer for that matter) built like a glovebox ? Anyone who's ever handled biohazard materials, dangerous chemicals or
nuclides will be familar with these; a double walled enclosure with a pair of thick flexible gloves protruding through.
Add a small "airlock" hatch and items can be passed into or out of the enclosure with the minimum exchange of outside air, thus reducing the requirement for cooling.

Just as long as you don't spill the milk. |

I just cleaned out our fridge. I'm always amazed at the bio-hazardous things that grow in the cold and dark. Anything that makes handling it a bit safer gets an automatic bun. |

Baked I'm afraid, my cousin has one (it also dispenses ice and 2 chilled drinks). The result is that almost every item in the fridge is crammed into the easy access area. |

My glovebox gets chilled when the Aircon is active - does that count? |

Ohhhh.. Okay.. I thought this was an idea to make you car's glove-box into a fridge. This is much more complicated, almost over-complicated; BUN |
