Both types have pros and cons - I've always been under the impression
that the upright types allow a lot of coldness to 'escape' when the
door is open compared to chest freezers.

That isn't really true -- at most, one or two pounds of cold air escapes and
is replaced with warm air. That has almost zero effect on the temperature
inside.


How does non-pressurized air have weight?


The same way anything else has weight. Did you really think that air weighs
nothing?

BTW, there's no such thing as "non-pressurized air". The air you're breathing
right now has a pressure of 1 atmosphere, equal to about 14.7 pounds per
square inch.


jeez, no wonder i'm wheezing. i thought it was the cigarettes.
