The pros of a chest freezer is that it can store more food in it. However, the con is that takes up more room than an upright freezer. A con of an upright freezer is that it doesn't have as much space as a chest freezer.
Any freezer needs to be kept closed as much as possible if you wish for it to remain cold. However a chest freezer will not warm up as fast as an upright freezer. This is because the cold air in the freezer is heavier than the air outside of the freezer. When you open an upright freezer the cold air "falls" out, this can't happen with a chest freezer.

The new freezer lines these days from Kenmore and GE all have antifreeze options that minimize it.
