QuestionIs the back of the fridge completely covered by a panel or is there an opening at the bottom exposing the compressor and wiring?
Asked 1 year ago by AmyL.
- Answer I thought the entire refrigerator was enclosed, at least according to the 3-D photo. But when I got it I found that there is a very bottom section that is open. There is no panel or vents, it's just open with wiring inside.

QuestionWhen is this back in stock? Your BB chat customer "service" person was useless. I asked if "unavailable" means you're no longer making this. He couldn't answer plainly. If it is the case, will you e bringing in a new version?
Asked 1 year ago by 1tahoegal.
- Answer I asked the same question in the store. I was told that the mint will not be back and that once the red is gone, it will probably not be back either.

QuestionWhat is the refrigerant used in this 4.5 unit? The smaller unit has a label in the back (or bottom, I've forgotten!) that announces in bold print that it's using cyclopentane. This larger unit isn't labeled.
Asked 2 years ago by MonkeySee.
- Answer I found the answer in the questions for the matching smaller fridge. Assuming the larger one uses the same thing, it's going to be R600a refrigerant. Good to look that up and decide. It's green, but flammable.

QuestionAre there rollers on the bottom for easy pull out?
Asked 2 years ago by Hopper.
- Answer No rollers on the bottom like large refrigerators however, the refrigerator is very light so you will have no problem moving it. I was surprised myself. It looks larger in the picture then it actually is. It is really cute and handy for me as I have it in the garage as a spare. Any smaller, for me, wouldn't allow enough storage for fridge and freezer items.
