    Great little beverage fridge for the price

    Small little fridge, fit perfect in little area of the pantry. Just had to remove a cabinet shelf and add electrical. Also, switched the side of the door hinges to the left side. The bev fridge allows the regular fridge to not get over crowded, fighting for space. It does not hold glass bottles without sacrificing space. In 2 weeks time had lots of different drinks go through the small bev fridge; waters, beers, sodas, etc. I have the temp set to 38C. If you stuff the fridge too much the drinks in the back can freeze over. Insignia recommends stacking the cans on their side. Cost is good enough even if it only last one summer since that is the heavy use season.

    Great option for our camper.

    We love this little refrigerator! It has been a staple in our outdoor kitchen at our camper. It’s the perfect size to hold our drinks and even in the hottest months, our drinks stayed nice and cold! It has a little LED light to help you see at night as well. Such a good buy at a good price too!

    Fantastic Beverage Cooler!

    I was super impressed when I initially removed the fridge from the box. I know it says it’s 40lbs, but it was really lightweight. I thought there was no way 48 cans can fit, but I’ll tell you was I wrong! It’s been so great having, that I wish I had a second. I’m very picky when it comes to esthetics of my appliances. This beverage cooler is modern and sleek by offering the stainless-steel finish. It’s compact, small and can be placed on a counter or to the side without it getting in the way. I’m really happy with the design and how compact it is. It’s so compact that I didn’t believe it’d actually hold 48 cans like advertised, but it does! I was reading the manual (yes, I do that!) and it showed some graphics on how to arrange the fridge. Simply follow those instructions and you’ll fit the cans. The buttons were very easy to push and I was able to quickly set the temp of my choosing. I setup the beverage cooler around 4pm. Set the temp to 37F and put in 16 fizzy waters. By 8pm those were nice and cold! I’m sure it was faster, but I wanted the cooler to do its thing before trying one. This’ll be perfect for game days when I want to load it with adult beverages. I can do so in the morning knowing those’ll be nice and cold come kickoff or tipoff! I haven’t had to use this feature yet, but the manual says there’s a “memory setting” that will restore my set temp if there’s a power outage. I absolutely love this because my wine cabinet doesn’t have this and I can’t tell you how many times I’ve forgot to reset the temp. I am super pleased this device will help! I also like the idea of its automatic defrost setting to help it stay free of ice buildup. I'm a fan that I can remove the wire rack if needed. I sometimes purchase the 16oz adult beverage can, so it'll be nice I can remove the wire rack and place the larger cans without a problem. I know that'll takeaway from the overall space, but it's nice to know I can maneuver the rack. Another thing I dig is that the door is reversable. If you don't like how it swings open, you have the freedom to swap the door to the other side. I left mine how it arrived, but I can see how some people will want it opening the other way. The balance knobs on the bottom didn't need much adjusting to make it level and the knobs were very easy to turn. I can’t wait to have this out for when my buddies come by. Pros: 48 cans – consult the user manual and it’ll show how to arrange the cans Sleek with stainless steel Compact design Buttons are easy to press Quiet See through door Reversable door LED Light Removable wire shelf Energy efficient appliance Cons: None Overall: It’s a no brainer at this price. It cools quickly, provides tons of storage and relatively quiet. I’m super pleased with it so far and definitely recommend it! I’m considering a second one for my office.

    Perfect for a game room or office!

    I just got this Insignia 48-can beverage cooler for my office/game room and so far, I love it! This thing is built so solid, the magnetic closure is strong and gives the perfect seal, keeping the drinks (or sandwiches) cold inside. My office/game room is on the second floor of my house, and it gets annoying to run down to the kitchen or out to the garage for a tasty beverage. This mini fridge/ beverage cooler solves that problem! I love how compact the fridge is but is still able to hold a whopping 48 cans! One feature I love is that the top shelf is high enough to fit tall boys standing upright on the bottom of the fridge. Another thing I love is the modern look of the unit. The stainless-steel door is classic and pairs well with the black body of the rest of the fridge. The glass window is a nice touch, so you know what the fridge has to offer as well as a quick view to see if it needs to be restocked. The beverage cooler is very simple to use. Just plug it in and set the temperature to your desired degree, wait until it is cold, then enjoy. I am glad I picked this little fridge up; it can hold 48 12-ounce cans and has a temperature range of 34 degrees to 50 degrees Fahrenheit. Not only that but if you were to have a power outage, the mini beverage cooler is equipped with an automatic memory function that will restore the temperature settings back to normal after the power comes back on. Another huge plus is that it is equipped with automatic defrosting! There is one removable shelf to help clean as well as give the ability for height adjustment. There is also the white LED option, the light can stay on or off, it looks great on and provides the perfect amount of light in my office for those late-night gaming sessions. The door is reversible and gives you the ability to open the door from the left or the right. In all, I am glad I picked up this Insignia 48-Can Beverage Cooler. It has been an excellent addition to my office/game room and would even be great in a garage or home theater room! I think Insignia knocked it out of the park with this solid-built little refrigerator!

Questions & Answers
  • Is this 100% okay / safe for keeping food inside ?

    Hello Alex, thank you for your question. Yes, the Insignia 48‑Can Beverage Cooler is completely safe for keeping food inside. It operates like a standard mini‑fridge and maintains proper cooling temperatures, so storing items such as snacks, bottled drinks, or packaged foods is perfectly fine. Just note that it is designed primarily for beverages, so it may not cool as evenly as a traditional refrigerator for highly perishable items. Sudeep | Insignia
