Perfect fit
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We love this frig! Purchased it for use in our renovated vintage camper. We were worried it might be noisy in such a small space, but just makes a soft hum when it kicks on. Have had many complements on its color. We are very happy with it.

Excellent and great looking mini fridge.
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We’ve been looking for a small refrigerator to place sodas and water in, and if it had any freezer space that would be a bonus. Just wanted enough room to free up some space in our regular refrigerator, then I saw this new “retro” style fridge in a “Surf Green” color and figured that would be perfect. It’s a very common color seen here in AZ and would fit right in. Unboxing and setting up: The unit is very well packed with plenty of Styrofoam framing protecting it from damage and there wasn’t a single scratch, dent or anything wrong with the unit. It’s also covered with some clear plastic covering on the sides protecting the paint which you’ll want to peel off. And inside the shelves were held in place by some easily removable tape. Also inside the instruction manual and door handle are in a bag. The handle you have to install yourself, and they’ve even included an allen wrench so you don’t have to look for a tool to install it. After attaching the handle to the door with the 3 included screws you snap on the outer cover and that’s it for getting it ready to use. According to the manual you will want to let it sit for 4 hours before turning the unit on, this is so that the oil can run back to the bottom of the pump just in case the unit was placed on its side at any time during shipment. There are also two leveling feet at the base of the front so you can get it leveled up while you are waiting. Use: After the 4 hour wait we plugged it in and turned the thermostat to the recommended 4 setting initially. I figured it would take a while to start cooling but within a few minutes the sides started getting very warm “which is normal” and the inside of the freezer box was getting very cold “pretty impressed with how fast this cooled down”. We waited for a couple hours and then checked, the inside was nice and cold so we loaded it up with some sodas and a couple items out of the freezer. I did notice that at the 4 setting it was getting quite as cold as we would want so I went ahead and set it just below maximum and that did the trick. Our drinks are extremely cold and the freezer compartment was super cold “more than plenty to keep our items frozen”. There’s plenty of room to fit 24 cans of soda, between the bottom shelf “10” cans, then 9 more easily in the door. The rest I put on their side on the other shelves “the height of the other shelves can’t hold a full sized can upright but the mini cans fit fine. Water bottles I just laid on their side on one of the other shelves and there’s room in the door for a couple tall bottles, two 750ml wine bottles should fit fine. Final Thoughts: If you are needing a small refrigerator and don’t want one that’s too big this one would be perfect for a game room, family room, wet bar. And you can place it so everyone can see it with its retro styling you really don’t want to hide it away. Our neighbors that have seen it love it and the color, they were also very impressed with how cold it got. It’s surprising just how much stuff you can fit into that 3.5 cubic ft, and the freezer, while being small, held enough stuff to free up some space in our regular freezer. The pump on this actually runs less than our regular refrigerator and it doesn’t look like it’s going to add much at all to our electric bill “not enough to where we are going to notice it”. We really like the retro styling, it’s not a plain old drab looking piece you want to hide away but something you’ll want people to see, “and they definitely notice it”. The only negative “minor” that I could find is that the one shelf isn’t adjustable, it’s fixed “you can remove for cleaning” but you can’t adjust it up/down which would be nice to have so you could fit full sized cans on one extra shelf, but for us, the way it is, it works out just fine. The pump also runs super quiet, you really can’t even hear it running and it’s much quieter than our full sized unit. We will be using this for many years to come and I’m sure you’ll be pleased with it and the design.

Awesome cute looking retro fridge
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great little retro fridge! Well worth the money. Packaging was good. Fedex delivered at my doorstep with no dents or scratches or nicks. Just cut the packing tape and lift the box like any other appliances. This little fridge in avocado/surf green color is stunningly beautiful wrapped in a plastic. Gloss paint finish is amazing. My teen daughter fell in love with the color and demanded that she likes to have this little fridge in her room and so it ended up in her room. Installation is pretty easy other than removing all the tape and removing the manual. The faux stainless-steel handle with 3 allen(hex) head screws and allen key is wrapped in parchment paper/tight plastic and placed in one of the side shelf. Installing handle itself is easy, just to align the handle to holes and have the screws in and tightened with allen key. But the decorative faux stainless cover that goes on the handle is little tricky to install. If it’s not inserted properly, you may break the tabs that align. It needs a good push after aligned to get that in. Removed all the packaging (foam base/ adhesive tape) as instructed on the manual before turning it on first time. Plugged the fridge to the grounded outlet, and waited for around 6 hours by setting the temperature control knob to coolest before loading stuff inside. In coolest, there was little noise (noticeable) when it was trying to cool for the first few hours and gradually reduced after that once it started maintaining the temperature. Also, its energy efficient compared to other models on the market(advertised at an estimated yearly energy cost of $26 / 213kWh yearly) Overall, nice cute energy efficient fridge in a great finish and color that works great for personal spaces.

Q: QuestionDoes the top freezer portion open allowing for an item or to be frozen or a small ice tray?
Asked by King45.
- A:Answer There is a small freezer portion at the top of the inside of the fridge but I found it to be unreliable in keeping things frozen... they melt and then refreeze. There is enough space for an ice tray or 2 or 3.

Q: QuestionWe plan on putting this in a small condo unit near the bed. Is this loud?
Asked by Kimi.
- A:Answer This is being used in a small private office. In that context, it's not loud at all. Hard to know how that translates to a bedroom though.
Answered by Jack
Q: QuestionDoes it fit a long neck beer on the vertical on the shelf? I want to buy one mostly for beer and always buy long necks
Asked by Rick.
- A:Answer Nope.... you have to lay them down to fit, if you remove the bottom glass shelf may be able to fit about 6 of them standing up, but is too much work for so little beer... may have a few fit on the door.

Q: QuestionIt is reported by some users that the handle is not very sturdy and comes off easily. If this happens is it covered under extended warrant ?
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer Honestly, the fridge handle is made of plastic, however once is installed, it feels sturdy. For almost a month owing it, no issue so far.
Answered by ZaidSteve
Q: QuestionI put the handle front and back together without putting the screws through first. Is there any way to remove the front piece once this is done?
Asked by Lucy.
- A:Answer Yes, it is possible. There are little tabs that snap in and hold the front plate into place - if you turn the handle upside down, you can see them on either end. Very gently, use a screwdriver to press one back and out, then you can pull the entire front plate off. It's only plastic and easy to damage the little tabs, so be very careful.
