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.

A deep chest freezer is more efficient than a refrigerator because it has more insulation to keep the cold air in, requires less frequent door openings, and typically has a more consistent temperature due to its design.

How long does ice cream keep without taste deteriorating?

That depends upon your freezer and the ice cream formulation. Store it closely covered and around 0°F - it will keep longer. Ice cream does not keep as well in self-defrosting freezers - it doesn't like the temperature fluctuations. If you store it at temperatures where it is easy to serve, it won't keep as long. I have had ice cream get yucky within a week of purchase in my refrigerator freezer, but keep well for several months in a chest freezer.
