We use Sanyo and Revco uprights with good success. One key ease of use feature has been the use of front-pull racks for sample box storage. Only one row at a time needs to be pulled out rather than a whole rack. We have them linked to a central monitoring system for temperature and power outage alerts so don't bother with chart recorders (though they have LED temperature display).
