Insignia™ - 130-Can Beverage Cooler - Silver

so I have been wanting a fridge to keep my beer separated from the main kitchen fridge because my wife was losing valuable space and I couldn't find my drinks buried behind food and other stuff. This insignia solves all my problems as now I can keep a good selection on hand and just peek through the glass so I don't have to waste time rummaging letting all the cold air out and warm air in. the 130 can rating is a bit confusing because I haven't attempted to completely fill mine but the shelves do hold 6 rows of 6 cans for 36. the limitation I believe comes from the upper deck where your shelf height interferes with the control panel limiting some potential space. and if you have bottles that you want to store straight up then you automatically lose capacity because it forces you to remove a shelf. I solve this problem by purchasing mainly cans but what bottles I do get I just slide them on the upper rack sideways and I feel doing this allows the cooling fan to circulate the air inside a little better. I keep the temp set at its lowest setting which is 34 degrees. I have not inserted a probe to see how cold its actually getting inside but my drinks are pretty cold to the touch and when they hit my mouth they are definitely more than cold enough, maybe not as cold as my main fridge upstairs but that is a different beast altogether. the only real con I can think is that since the lowest level isn't a shelf but rather the "floor" inside, it isn't a perfectly flat surface so some cans will sit flat and others might sit crooked depending on how they're lined up and arranged. I have no idea about the alleged energy efficiency of this unit however it does run pretty quiet not that it matters because it is kept in the basement laundry room office away from the main living area so I only hear it running after I open the door to grab a quick cold one. time will tell how long this thing lasts but if I get it to last until I move out of the house I'll be happy and probably just leave it in the basement for the next owner! the unit is pretty big so be prepared to bring your truck or suv to haul this away. the packaging was quite thin so be careful while moving and transporting. I would not trust any shipping company to transport this as I feel there isn't adequate protection inside the box. as always, read the instructions and be sure to let it sit in place for 30 to 60 minutes prior to plugging in or you could risk damaging the compressor.

I bought this Insignia 130-can beverage cooler last year, and I waited a few months before writing this review because I wanted to see how well it would hold up over time. I’m happy to say the results have been amazing! It’s worked perfectly since day one, and I’ve been very impressed with how reliable and useful it is. I mainly got it to free up space in my main fridge, and it’s done a great job. It fits a lot of cans, just like advertised, and I like that I can adjust the shelves if I need to fit taller bottles or other drinks. The silver finish looks clean and modern, and the glass door is a nice touch — I can easily check what’s inside without opening the door. The cooler runs very quietly, which was important to me because I have it near the living room. I barely notice it’s on, even at night. It cools drinks quickly and keeps them consistently cold. If you set it to the lowest temperature, it actually gets so cold that some drinks near the back can start to freeze — I was surprised by how powerful it is! I just adjusted the temp slightly, and now it’s perfect. One thing I’ll mention is that the shelves are a bit lightweight, so I try not to overload them with heavy bottles. But for cans and light drinks, they work just fine. Setting the right temperature took a little experimenting at first, but once I found the right setting, I haven’t needed to touch it again. What surprised me the most is how much I use this cooler every day, not just for parties. It’s so convenient to always have cold drinks ready, and guests often comment on how handy it is. Honestly, I love it so much that if I move to a bigger house, I’m planning to buy a second one — one upstairs and one downstairs! Overall, I’m really happy with this purchase. It’s been a great addition to my home, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a solid, reliable beverage fridge at a good price.

I needed a beverage cooler to complete a kitchen remodel. Best Buy had the Insignia in stock with the perfect measurements. Placed an online order, and shortly after it was ready for pick up. Nice design, quiet, and a large capacity in my opinion.

Arrived ahead of schedule and curbside pickup took about 7 minutes. Beautiful design and great adjustable shelves. Holds temperature well and I have had no problems. It has freed up a lot of space in my refrigerator while allowing me to keep more beverages cold.

The fridge is very useful. The size is just perfect. It fits a variety of different drinks. It was easy to set up and started cooling right away. I would definitely recommend it. There were a few glass scratches but didn’t bother at all. It is very industrial looking overall. I like it.
