What ice melts fastest deep freezer or regular freezer?

It depends on the location you are at. There are many factors like the atmospheric pressure, temperature and the characteristics of the fridge. Say you are in the desert and it is 36 degrees Celsius. If the temperature inside the fridge is 2-8 degrees Celsius, then the icecube would melt faster on the counter. However, if you are in the north pole, where it is approximately -30 degrees Celsius, then the icecube will not melt at all. However, if the fridge in north pole is 2-8 degrees Celsius, then the icecube would melt faster inside the fridge than outside. It all depends on which temperature is higher or lower.
