A:AnswerI keep mine on a covered back patio in southern Louisiana and my drinks were ice cold all summer long. It even survived hurricane Ida without a dent or scratch. Started right back up when the power was restored.

A:AnswerThank you for your inquiry! Yes, the Insignia™ 130-Can Beverage Cooler comes with a 3-prong plug, which typically indicates that it includes a ground connection. Keith | Insignia Support https://www.bestbuy.com/site/insignia-130-can-beverage-cooler-silver/6405496.p?skuId=6405496
A:AnswerIt is silent when the compressor is off and when it runs it sounds like a small refrigerator running; however, it isn't annoying and super loud.
A:AnswerHello Ande, thank you for your question. This beverage cooler is designed for indoor use and is not rated for outdoor environments. Even on a covered patio, exposure to temperature fluctuations, humidity, and weather conditions may affect its performance. For best results, we recommend using it in a climate-controlled indoor location.

A:AnswerHello, thank you for the question. The Insignia™ 130‑Can Beverage Cooler (Model NS‑BC130GP1) is built for indoor, climate‑controlled use only, so placing it outdoors or on an open porch isn’t recommended. Outdoor temperatures and humidity can impact cooling performance and shorten the unit’s lifespan.

A:AnswerHello Engee. Thank you for your question. The glass door on this beverage cooler is reversible, meaning you can switch it to open from either the left or the right. You’ll just need to move the hinges and handle to the opposite side following the included instructions. Mohan | Insignia.
A:AnswerThank you for your inquiry! The Insignia™ 130-Can Beverage Cooler (Model: NS-BC130GP1) is primarily designed as a freestanding appliance, meaning it is not intended for built-in or under-counter installation. According to the manufacturer’s guidelines, the unit requires adequate ventilation on all sides to function properly and avoid overheating. This means it should not be enclosed within cabinetry or placed directly under a counter without sufficient clearance. While some users have managed to place it under counters by allowing extra space—such as at least half an inch on the sides and nearly two inches at the back—this setup goes against the official recommendations and could potentially impact the cooler’s performance or void its warranty. If you're looking for a beverage cooler that can be seamlessly integrated into cabinetry, it would be best to consider a model specifically designed for built-in or under-counter use.
