    Doesn't get very cold

    Purchased this fridge as an upgrade, because my other unit was too small. After plugging the new unit in and waiting a couple of hours, I immediately could tell that this fridge didn't cool my drinks as well as my previous one. My drinks where only cooled (not cold), I checked the temperature nob to make sure it was set to the coldest (which it was). So I decided to purchase a thermometer, to see how cold it got. (Coldest was only 43 degrees). Not cold enough for cold drinks.

      Hi Omar, we're sorry to hear about the cooling issue you've encountered with your mini fridge. Factors such as room temperature, ventilation, and initial setup can affect cooling performance. It's possible that the fridge needs time to reach optimal temperature after initial setup. Additionally, ensure proper airflow around the unit and check for any obstructions to the vents. Regards, Earl danby-products

    Love this mini fridge. We didn't want one that had a freezer, as we just wanted to put drinks in it in our bar area. This one just fits the width of the space we had. It cools great and is quiet. Delivery was quick and right to our front door. Highly recommend this little fridge.

    Frost Free and Quiet!

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I ordered my 2.6 cu ft Black Danby Compact Fridge with free shipping from bestbuy.com and received it within a week a little over 2 weeks ago. So far I love it! I had wanted a frost free fridge and this was the only one available in this price range. I had read reviews on another site that said it was quiet and since that was important to me also, I decided that this was the one for me. I've used several small refrigerators in the last few years and this is the best one I've used. It's frost free which is amazing! I hate those useless little freezers that get filled with ice within a few weeks. This fridge doesn't have a freezer at all, so there's no defrosting necessary and it is really frost free. Look on the yellow Energy Guide Label to see that it's truly frost free. Defrosting refrigerators is not something I have time for, particularly not something I want to have to do on a hard wood floor, like I have now. The fridge is very quiet, it's not silent, but it's definitely the quietest fridge I've had lately. The sound it makes is pretty subtle. It's July, but has only been in the 70s and 80s where I've been near the coast, I have the fridge temperature setting at about 70% and it's staying cold at between 30-35 degrees. The black fridge looks good, I like the design. The top is nice, but not really the right height to use as a work space unless you put the fridge on a low table of some kind. I use it to store light unrefrigerated things. Now for my complaints and warnings... Be careful about not putting delicate things like lettuce in the back of the fridge, because that's where it gets coldest, it will freeze and ruin lettuce and other delicate fruits and vegetables. I also wish it didn't have all those soda pop can dispensers in the door, they take up valuable space. Soda and beer cans will fit anywhere in the fridge (like in the back to keep things from freezing back there), I don't know why all the little fridges need to waste space with those big can dispensers. I would rather have more room for tall beverage bottles and boxes in the door. I had to take out the small bottom shelf of inside the fridge to make room for tall things.

    Very Quiet

    I bought this for my office. I am a psychotherapist and the noise level was one of the most important things for me. It is very quiet. You can hear it cooling for about 2 minutes every 15 minutes or so. Definitely not going to interrupt therapy. It's big enough for several drinks, yogurts, food containers, etc. Very happy with purchase.

    Bought this for an elderly family member to use in her room in an assisted living facility. She uses it to store extra snacks, drinks and her insulin so she doesn't have to leave room. Just the right size and holds exactly what she needs. Stays cool with no issues.
