Fits in a closet
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I used this for a small kitchen where there was an elevated closet - you open the closet door and there is this refrigerator with a shelf above it and a microwave on the shelf. Good size for this kind of treatment.

Danby Mini Fridge
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The product arrived dented in several places. Best Buy dealt with the situation by providing me a refund of 25% of the purchase price. I appreciated that action. I would have preferred, however, an undamaged product at the original purchase price. Reading other reviews on the same product, this is apparently not an infrequent occurrence. Best Buy would work with the manufacturer to improve the shipping of the product.

Very disappointed! Broken after only 24 months!
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sadly, this mini fridge only lasted 24 months. It started not cooling as well and then suddenly stopped working all together. I contacted Danby and was told there was nothing they could do to help me because the warranty was only 18 months. I called Best Buy where we purchased and they basically told me I was out of luck too. Now I have to pay to dispose of this refrigerator ( Best Buy only recycles full size ones) . Will never purchase another Danby product. Buyer Beware!

Posted .Hi JanetG,
I’m truly sorry to hear about your experience with the mini fridge. It’s frustrating when appliances don’t perform as expected, especially after a short time. Issues with cooling can sometimes stem from factors like temperature settings or ventilation blockages. We want to help, so please reach out to our consumer service team at [email protected] for further resolution. Your satisfaction is important to us.

Pretty good, with some dents
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Arrived quickly, keeps consistent temperature, like others have noted, dents in front door panel from shipping, not major but would be annoying if not stored in a dark corner of a bar area in our home. Dent was bad enough I would have returned if was out in the open. Disappointing these are not protected better during shipping

Love the product!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love the product 2nd one we have owned. Unfortunately the one we got was damaged tremendously and had to b returned and I must say Best Buy policy on damaged goods leaves a lot to be desired! Took quite a lot of work on our part to finally get new one replaced

Danby 4.4 cu ft Mini Fridge - arrived damaged
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The fridge was damaged out of the box, no apparent damage to the box. Also had to let the fridge set for 24 hours before using because it came off the delivery truck on its side. Has been working well. The shelf spacing is not optimal for 12 oz bottles or 16 oz cans.

Perfect size for my needs
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It was just what I was looking for. It's the perfect size for my family room and bar. I didn't need a freezer because it just takes up room in a small fridge. I just wanted something to keep drinks and a few condiments cold. This works. I thought it had glass shelves but they're wire. I would have preferred glass, but the coated wire is ok.
