    Product was just what we needed. The box came a bit damaged..but did not affect the refrigerator. It seems to be fairly quiet during operation. We did have to clean some foam insulation trapped under the door seal. I would purchase this product again if I needed another one!

    We had to order this as it wasn’t in stock at the Sioux Falls store. It came in a big box, of course, with no damage to the outside of the box whatsoever. However, the top of the refrigerator had many dents toward the back of the frig. We have it under the counter so no one can see the dents and the frig is working okay (so far). I just don’t understand why Danby and/or Best Buy would ship a damaged frig?

    Very nice small fridge. Quiet keeps things cool works fine. Came with a dent on the door but Best Buy gave me 20 bucks off. Rather than have them come out and change it. It seems these always have some kind of dent when they come in.

      Hi Snap,

      Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with our Danby mini fridge. We are delighted to hear that you find it very nice, quiet, and that it keeps things cool. We appreciate your positive feedback about the fridge's functionality.

      We apologize that your fridge arrived with a dent on the door. However, we are glad that Best Buy was able to provide you with a discount of $20 to compensate for the issue. We understand that it can be inconvenient to have to replace the door and appreciate your decision to accept the discount instead.

      We take quality control very seriously at Danby Appliances, and we regret that the fridge did not arrive in perfect condition. Your feedback is valuable to us, and we will take the necessary steps to improve our shipping processes to minimize the occurrence of such incidents.

      Thank you for choosing Danby Appliances. We are grateful for your business and hope that you continue to enjoy your small fridge for many years to come.

    My wife and I purchased the Danby 4.4 Cu. Ft. Mini Fridge. We keep it in our bedroom on the third floor where we live. I can't tell you how many trips up and down the stairs it saves us daily, but it is significant. AND the Fridge is efficient and helpful to our personal needs. GREAT PURCHASE FOR US!

    (1) I've only had this a week. It took a day for this fridge to cool to operating temperature compared to the chest freezer I purchased separately, which only took a few hours. The beverage cans in the door aren't as cool as the drinks up against the interior rear panel (which appears to be the main or only source of cooling), even after it's been running for 4 days and the thermostat is set on the lowest setting. (2) This fridge arrived damaged, a sharp dent in the middle of the door. After unboxing this fridge, it's clear why. The packing material (Styrofoam) on the sides is way too thin considering how much handling these units will endure. Make the Styrofoam thicker and I expect damages will decrease and customer satisfaction increase. (3) I love the interior light. You don't see that often in mini fridges.

    Great size for my theater room plus I was able to get this free with my Best Buy points. I’ve had Dandy products in the past and they have always been great. Convenient inside light. The only reason why I didn’t give it a 5 is because it doesn’t have a drawer to store items.

    We keep a mini fridge in our garage so when working in the yard we don’t have to track in the house just to get a cold drink. This fit the bill. Our old one just wasn’t keeping things as cold as it should, so we went to BestBuy.com to get a replacement. We can always depend on Best Buy having what we need. It was even delivered 2 days sooner than expected.

    Purchased this as a gift for my son in law. He wanted it for his garage to put by his tool bench. He seems to like it. He especially likes the door part where the bottles have an individual spot. This was more than I wanted to pay for it so hopefully it will last longer than a cheaper model. But beware. Once you order this, the order cannot be cancelled by Best Buy or the company shipping it. I ordered 2 by mistake and had to return one to the store
