A:AnswerA 12 oz can is about 4.75" tall by 2.5" diameter and I actually have 2 of the 12 packs of 12 oz soda cans here so I simply put them in each location and counted how many fit.
So, this is how many 12 oz cans this fridge can hold. The cans are standing upright, not laying down (except in the door's can holder).
The fridge door itself can hold 10 cans, 5 in the can holder and 5 on the door's top shelf. I didn't put any on the tall door shelf next to the can holder.
The bottom shelf can hold 11 cans (5 in back with 6 in front of those). Yes, the door still closes.
The middle shelf holds 21 cans and the top shelf will hold 19 cans if put against the fridge temperature control.
I did not put any 12 oz cans in the "freezer" section of this fridge.
So, 10+11+21+19 = 61 of the 12 oz cans.
61 is the maximum number of 12 oz cans that will fit in this fridge.
A:AnswerI have 2 ice trays in mine and they both have ice in them. When I plugged it in for the first time, I set it to the coldest temperature. I put the ice trays into the freezer section with water and within a reasonable time, there was ice. I was actually surprised at how quick I had ice. I have since raised the temperature a notch (warmer setting) and I still have 2 trays of ice in the freezer section. It would seem that if somebody's does not make ice, it is not functioning correctly.
Also, remember that if you laid it down for transportation, let it stand upright for at least a few hours before plugging it in so that the refrigerant settles back into where it should be before being run. Not doing this could cause the fridge to not function properly. I put mine in place and then went home without plugging it in. The next morning I plugged it in and it has worked perfectly since. Makes ice, keeps my drinks cold and everything.
This is just my experience and my 2 cents.
A:AnswerIt does have a freezer, but it's tiny and just about useful for making ice only. You could probably fit in one TV dinner box, that's it. It comes with the tiniest ice tray in the world.
A:AnswerIt's deep enough to hold wine and the shelves are sturdy. I would recommend putting a dial thermometer in it so you can better regulate the temp..
A:AnswerI have it set on 7. It will cool initially at 5 over a few days, but I really like my drinks cold, so I keep it there. Freezer portion seems to be functioning well there too.
A:AnswerYou have to be careful with these mini fridges...I got one and put it under a countertop where air flow to the compressor area was restricted...about a week later it wouldn't cool off...I discovered it has a temperature sensitive fuse that will blow out if overheated in order to save the compressor.
Being a DIY guy I went on line and identified the black plastic fuse holder and removed it and found out that it had indeed cracked, which shut down power to save the compressor...
I found the part on Amazon for less than $3....ordered one and fridge is as good as new...
Always allow enough room around the compressor for adequate air flow.
A:AnswerI haven't tried frozen food, but I can tell you that the coldest setting for the fridge portion keeps my water bottles on the verge of being frozen. The freezer part froze an entire water bottle pretty nicely. I would trust this fridge to keep a frozen lunch frozen. It's a pretty small freezer area though. I would say on the coldest setting, you could probably put a frozen meal in there and it wouldn't unthaw to the point of the food spoiling. It would unthaw a little bit, but still be cold enough
A:AnswerIt should work fine on a outside patio, as along as it's out of the weather. If you have it in the direct sun, it might affect the cooling ability.
A:AnswerMine is about 2 weeks old and it makes the single string pluck sound when the compressor kicks on, it just started today that i noticed but it still keeps things cold inside. Doesnt seem to be an issue but i could be wrong
A:AnswerTo turn ours on we just plugged it in and adjusted the temperature control. We turned ours off for vacation by turning the temperature control to '0' when returning we just turned the temp up and it did not take long to get cold.
A:AnswerThis unit draws 90 watts, or 1.5 amps. If you use a GOOD 14 or 16 gauge SHORT (10 foot or less) extension cord you should be O.K.
Just remember this unit runs most of the time, and small cords like lamp extension cords WILL heat up!
A safer alternative might be to put nicely covered blocks (bricks?) to raise the unit up, this will also increase cooling!
Good Luck!
