Q: QuestionCan we use on outdoor patio?

Asked 1 year ago by Retro.

• A:Answer Hello Retro! Indeed, you can place the fridge on your patio. However, ensure it's positioned out of direct sunlight and away from any heat sources. This precaution helps protect the fridge's acrylic coating and also prevents an increase in electricity usage. It's recommended to keep the surrounding temperature under 50°F (approximately 10°C) or over 85°F (around 29.4°C) for optimal performance. |Angelica| Insignia Support| https://www.bestbuy.com/site/insignia-retro-3-1-cu-ft-mini-fridge-with-top-freezer-and-energy-star-certification-mint/6410013.p?skuId=6410013

Q: QuestionI have another one right now but everything freezes in both the bottom as well as the freezer. Does anyone have the problem of things freezing in the fridge part?

Asked 2 years ago by Sandy.

• A:Answer I haven't had that issue. My freezer is separate from the refrigerator area. the frozen stays frozen and the 9ther keeps things cold. the 2 separate areas are key, in my opinion, for not having your freezer leak onto your food below. I had that issue in the past with an other mini fridge. good luck

Q: QuestionWould I be able to keep this mini fridge in a storage closet? It would have some room to breathe, I just want to make sure that it would not overheat to shorten the lifespan .

Asked 2 years ago by jess4js.

• A:Answer Hi! I have never had mine in a storage closet but I have always had it in a corner under my bed (in a dorm room). It has never once overheated over my three years of ownership despite being cramped up under there. As long as the back is not right up against the wall I’d say you should be good honestly.

Q: QuestionCan I lay the fridge on its side when transporting it? Or does it need to stay straight up?

Asked 2 years ago by Kayla.

• A:Answer if you lay it on the side, be sure to have it upright for twice the amount of time it was on its side. the refrigerant needs to go back into the compressor or it will not work when its plugged in.
