So far, so good...
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this primarily because of it's compact size & good ratings. We're using it to replace the old styrofoam ice box in our pop-up camper. So far, seems to cool down enough within ~2 hours of being plugged in to use. We're enjoying having a cool place for frig items without needing to refill the ice in our cooler constantly...or the packaging getting all soggy.

Review
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It works very well, unfortunately, came with a few dents in the side of the fridge. Other than that I have no complaints, for its perfect price and size. holds a carton of milk and other items perfectly

Nice Compact Fridge
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a nice little fridge. I use just to keep canned beverages cold. It works well. The only con is a strange electric type smell from time to time. It seems to be dissipating so it's possible that it is just a new type of odor that gradually disappears as the fridge acclimates. Overall, happy with the purchase.

Great Mini Fridge

Love it because it's ONLY fridge so don't have freezer to worry about de-thawing and cleaning out. Bought this for teenage granddaughter to keep in her hang out room for drinks. She LOVES it. Great price and GREAT size. Would purchase again and recommend.

Keeps things cold, but noisy
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Pros: Keeps drinks cold at a setting of 4 or 5. For a small fridge, there’s lots of room. I can fit at least 2 six packs of cans and several 20 oz. bottles of Gatorade. Cons: Makes a variety of noises, including popping, buzzing, and a sound like an old hard drive being accessed (very loudly). Seems like the compressor runs a lot. I almost returned this because of the noises. The fridge was balanced according to a level, but the compressor still made the hard drive-like sound every 5 minutes or so, which was very irritating. After playing around with it for a couple days, I was able to get that particular sound to stop by using a piece of the cardboard packaging to raise the back of the fridge, thereby making it unlevel, but less noisy. Compressor still pops when it turns on or off, but I’ve mostly gotten used to that. Still occasional faint buzzing. I defintely would have returned it if it wasn’t such a pain to repackage, but for now I’m satisfied with it. Just need to make sure I don’t move it accidentally and knock it out of the sweet spot. Three stars because of my aggravation and my reservations about how long it will last.

Convenient and roomy
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great little fridge to have. I keep it in my room to store a few drinks etc. It’s big enough to hold 2 24packs of soda if you double stack them. I wish it had a freezer but the back gets very icy cold. Just not cold enough to keep something frozen. I’ve had it over a year and it still works great.

Small footprint mini-fridge that's pretty quiet
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We've only had this fridge for a few weeks, so it's still very early in it's lifecycle, but so far, it's been quiet and reliable. However my experience is that if it fails, it will be closer to the 1 year mark. This mini fridge was purchased to store drinks in an elementary school classroom, so it needs to be quite so it doesn't distract from the learning environment. This fridge is quiet, although you can hear the compressor but it's not intrusive. Size is good and fit and finish are decent, however our specific unit had the door very poorly aligned and it wouldn't open or close without rubbing the door on the interior side. The adjustment to the hinge was easy to fix this, but it shouldn't really be needed for something brand new and this issue may not be an easy for for other people. Adjusting the alignment required a Philips screwdriver and a socket driver (forgot size) to adjust and not everyone may have these tools readily available, so I took 1 star off for the poor quality control on this alignment issue.

Neat fridge
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We got this as a bottle fridge for the upstairs new 3-month-old demon that we're raising that doesn't like sleeping at all and needs to be fed every 3 hours and it is working like a charm. No we don't have to worry about going down the stairs or up the stairs in the middle of the night sleep deprived and falling down into a battered coma. We can now make sure that we are safer with this little fridge, you can fit a bunch of water bottles and baby bottles and that's about it but that feels the job done. Also you can put some kick buttmagnets on it too to dress up the fact that this thing is representing a new utility in your life that you really didn't need because you made a new human and now this thing is going to take over your life in every passing second until it actually learns how to sleep which isn't going to be anytime soon so you might as well just get used to the fact that this fridge is at least pretty cool and on neat side effect of everything you've put yourself through

Nice little fridge
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I wanted something small for keeping Gatorade and protein drinks nice and cold for my bedroom. This fit the bill to a tee. Even though its small am able to keep eight 20 ounce Gatorades (lying on their side, bottom shelf) and at least ten of my 14 ounce protein drinks (top shelf, standing up). I have it set to 5.5 and these drinks are COLD! Very cold! The fridge is also nice and quiet. Definitely can recommend this.

Good size; Good price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got a good deal on this mini fridge. Was on sale. Free shipping. Works great. Use it at my school in my classroom. Not sure about others but fridge is pretty quiet. No ice tray ( waste of space anyways) holds many soda cans and bottles. Side door is a bit loose but open it slow, no problems. Very happy with purchase

I've been searching for a fairly-priced mini fridge to fit the small space in my dorm room and this is the one!

Great Fridge, Slight Smell
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This fridge is great for what I wanted. It's small, has plenty of space for cans, regular bottle sizes, and it keeps things really cool. It does have a bit of a smell on the inside when you first get it, but goes away once you use it enough or leave baking soda in there.

Nice little fridge
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Pretty spacious, lightweight and certainly does the trick. Where I am using it the space is hard to keep cool, so having cold drinks handy is important. This unit blends in well with most rooms and provides excellent chill to the drinks. Great value for the price.

Insulin? Soda? Ice Cream? Yes.
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Becoming a newly diagnosed Type 2 diabetic changed my life, including the need for a mini-fridge in my room. This addition allowed me to administer insulin discreetly and without drawing unnecessary attention, especially from curious kids who might wonder about the contents. When I searched for the right mini-fridge, I sought a balance between affordability and reliability. I didn't want something too cheap that would wear out quickly, nor did I want to overspend on a high-end option. After a few months of owning this mini-fridge, I can confidently say it has served its purpose exceptionally well. One of the aspects I appreciated the most was its noise level. Initially placed on a flimsy Ikea desk, it was reasonably quiet. However, it virtually disappeared into the background when I moved it to a sturdier hardwood nightstand. There's a subtle, low hum, which is barely noticeable unless you actively listen for it. Interestingly, this faint hum has become a soothing white noise that aids in lulling me to sleep. Now that my insulin needs have changed, I no longer require the fridge for medical purposes. Instead, it has found new life as a reliable beverage cooler. It often sits empty since I prefer room-temperature water over chilled drinks, and I rarely indulge in soda or flavored beverages. On the other hand, the kids have adopted the mini-fridge as their occasional snack haven. They store Gatorade for their active moments and ice cream for their milkshake-making escapades. Indeed, they've discovered that turning ice cream into a milkshake right in the mini-fridge produces a creamier treat than the traditional method. In conclusion, this mini-fridge has proven itself to be versatile and dependable. Whether for medical needs or simply chilling beverages and snacks, it has excelled in every role. Plus, it adds a touch of style to the room. I highly recommend considering this mini-fridge for your needs; it's practical and aesthetically pleasing.

DIY kegerator! Great value! Holds 37f
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.As you can see I turned mine into something a little more exciting! It arrived undamaged. It holds a 170oz keg at a consistent 37f on setting '7', which is perfect for my needs. It's quiet, but not 'noiseless' as stated by a couple of other reviews. All in all, perfect little fridge, and in my case it saved me $300+!
