Charming Retro Fridge Works Like a Charm

I've had this fridge for about a month now.
I've had absolutely no trouble with it-
It came in perfect condition, setup was a breeze, and it's functioning properly.
If you want the bottle opener attachment on the side of the fridge you're going to have to install it yourself. Which is totally fine, because it's been pre-drilled for that and they provide you with the screws, all you have to do is just screw it on.
It came with two adjustable shelves, and it has a plastic drawer that slides out in the bottom of the fridge(kinda like a little fruits/veggies drawer that most fridges tend to have) which is pretty awesome.
There's a light turns on when you open the door to the fridge, and the lightbulb is easily replaceable if it ever happens to burn out.
You can also set the desired temperature, because there's a dial with 5 settings you can choose from.
The freezer also works like a charm, I've been using the freezer to make ice for drinks and popsicles for hot summer days.
I thought I should mention that the fridge comes with a small free icecube tray :D
This fridge does make a sound when it's running. Nothing terrible, just the soft hum you'll sometimes hear from most fridges. Pretty normal.
The size of this fridge is perfect for my little space and honestly the retro look is just charming.
Overall, I'm beyond happy with my purchase and i most definitely would recommend this fridge to any friends.

This fridge is adorable and a great mini fridge. The freezer is small but can easily hold a bag of ice. I just wish the handles were not plastic, they feel flimsy and I worry they could just break off.

While the fridge is great, the packaging is not. My fridge arrived damaged and I was already without a fridge for so many days and had a very difficult experience this time with bestbuy geek squad.

Fridge is great and does what it needs to do. My only complaint is the condition the box came in when I received it. It was all banged up, and I thought maybe the fridge would be damaged, but thankfully it wasn’t. Could be the fault of the ups carrier, but nonetheless it could’ve been packaged better.

"Little-Big Red Retro Refrigerator"

This 'big- little' two compartment retro Frigidaire in red is the perfect size frig to hold my most needed food neccesities when I have my surgery. The red just pops & makes me happy. The freezer is seperate from the refrigeration & holds quite a bit of food. I'm already using it for my waters, sandwich makings, ice cream & more. I love mine.

The fridge itself is useful, works well, us adorable but the packaging is horrible! It had 2 giant dents when I took it out of the package. I didn't want to deal with returning it since it did work well so I kept it but I'd warn others.

I purchased this for my daughter’s college dorm and it is not only adorable, but truly keeps things cold and the freezer freezes! My son had another brand and it was not nearly as good as this one. I recommend!

Dent in door of fridge upon receiving it.

The fridge had a huge dent in it when we opened up the box. We were only in town for a short while to help our daughter set up her dorm room, so we did not have time to return it and my daughter does not have any transportation to return it, so she kept it and put a picture over the dent. So disappointing to pay so much in an appliance and it is not in good condition when you receive it. Our time shopping at Best Buy is coming to an end. I wouldn’t recommend anyone to buy anything at Best Buy.

Great Fridge - Wrong Size

I have to give this a low score. Its a great fridge, delivery was great but the website said this fridge was 26 inches tall (see pic) but what I received was 33 inches tall. The space I had needed a 26 inch tall fridge so I have to re-arrange the room to get this to fit. Just be sure what you buy and the website actually agree as you decide what to get to fill your space.

The style of this fridge is great however, I ordered it for my sons college dorm and made the mistake of not opening it until we got it moved to his dorm. Naturally, I wanted to keep it intact so it wouldn't get damaged during the move. Once we opened it in his dorm, we found 3 very large dents on the fridge in 3 different areas. Very disappointing as the return window is extremely short and we did not want to have to unload it from his dorm which is 3 hours away and bring it back to the store. I would highly recommend a different brand/fridge until Frigidare can figure out how to protect these fridges in the box more appropriately.

A nice quiet & compact fridge w retro design. Fits perfectly in our lounge & can pack in more than a dozen sodas or beers. Downgraded 1-star due to number of times (3) it took to receive an undamaged & acceptable unit from Best Buy.

Freezer door is slightly slanted & hits the bottom door. It seals but we have to make sure fridge door closes. The freezer keeps ice cream frozen & fridge keeps food cold. The box it came in was opened. Best Buy manager in San Rafael says all mini fridges come with open box, which I don’t believe. I would have returned but I had to wait 3 wksfor this one & didn’t want the hassle.

I love the cool retro look and it works as... well any fridge should. Having the separate compartment for the freezer was the final factor I needed. Nice light in the fridge, wish there was a light in the freezer part, too. The bottle opener on the side is a nice perk. I really wish the doors could be reversed. There appears to be holes so you could, but you can’t. So I’d give them 4.5 stars if I could.

The retro style of this refrigerator is exactly what my wife was looking for. The only downside is the handles feel like they are made of cheap plastic.
