Customer Ratings & Reviews

---Pros--- 1. The stainless steel trim, glass door, glass shelves, and LED interior light give the cooler a premium look and make it easy to see what's inside. 2. The size is perfect for me. It is a good compromise between the exterior space it takes up versus how many drinks it can hold. It can tuck under a counter or be placed in an unused corner without being noticed. While I didn't pack it full, it made a big impact during the holiday. We had more room for food in the kitchen fridge, while having plenty of cold drinks on hand for friends and family. I didn't try it, but the instructions actually tell you how to fit 115 cans (it is a tight fit, but Insignia provides a detailed layout)! 3. Controls and instructions are simple. The temperature is adjusted with a numbered knob (1 thru 6; the larger the number the colder inside). The LED is controlled via an ON/OFF switch. Both the temperature and LED control are located inside at the top. 4. Drinks are the perfect temperature on the middle temperature setting. A setting of (4) yields a temperature range between 37F-50F depending on the shelf and proximity to the door (the warmest spot is on the top shelf nearest the door). 5. Adjustable height shelves allow you to find a configuration to fit different sized containers. 6. Reversable door to fit you space (basic tools). Easily adjustable feet for leveling (the feet can be spun in and out by hand, but a level or level app is a good idea). 7. A real (paper) instruction manual is included (no app or QR code needed). ---Things to Consider--- 1. Reasonably quiet. The compressor is not loud at all, although vibration sometimes make it more noticeable in a quiet room. We hardly know it is there during the day, but it might bother some people if in a bedroom. 2. The manual recommends 4in of air space on all sides and a maximum ambient temperature of 85F. This might be an issue if you were planning on a tight fitting cabinet or planned on using it in a location with no temperature control (like a garage).

I was not aware there is a difference between coolers and refrigerators. Coolers usually run around 40 degrees and warmer as their job is to keep beverages cool. Where a refrigerator usually runs colder than 40 degrees as its job is to keep food fresh. This difference is important to understand so as not to have unrealistic expectations. Unit was very easy to unpack – just cut a few straps and the box lifted off reveling the cooler. Weight was easy for me to move by myself. There is a lot of tape holding the shelves in – some being hard to get to. Included user guide states to wipe down interior with warm cloth and to let stand at least 30 minutes before plugging in - I waited until next day and waited a few hours after plugging in to put any beverages in unit. Guide also states unit cannot be recessed – free standing only. Not to be put in direct sunlight as can affect acrylic components with at least 4 inches clearance on all sides. Not to be placed in area below 50 or above 85 degrees and as such states not to be used in garage or any outside location(s). Also not to be used in moist areas, in an RV or as an inverter(?). Can’t stack coolers and don’t use around magnetic fields (?). If none of the above restrictions apply in how you were planning on using the cooler here is what I found in using. There are 6 shelf options to place the 3 glass shelves. The only way to store 115 cans is to place them horizontally and stack them on top of each other. This didn’t work for me as I wanted to see what the beverages were as I planned to mix them on a shelf. Also, I wanted to store taller 16.9 oz soda bottles vertically, as well as taller 12 oz glass bottles. I wound up using only 2 shelves and had temperature set to max of 6. Top shelf using option 3 from top – 18 – 16.9 oz plastic soda bottles – all vertical. Temperature stayed consistent at 40 degrees. 2nd shelf using option 6 from top – 10 – 12 oz tall glass bottles and 24 - 12 oz aluminum cans (stack of 2) – all vertical. Temperature consistently was around 30 degrees. Bottom of unit (no shelf) 18 - 16.9 oz plastic water bottles stored horizontally. Temperature was around 32 degrees. For a total of 70 beverages. The temperature does not seem consistent – maybe container type factors in? The unit is quiet, and door is heavy with 2 panes of glass. Door can be mounted on either side of the unit, but exterior trim looks like stainless steel but isn’t. Inside of door fogs up if opened for than a few seconds but goes away quickly once closed. 1-year warranty There is a light switch on inside top of unit to turn on/off – it doesn’t light on/off when door is opened/closed. Again, my research found that this lighting setup seems to be standard for a cooler. Unfortunately, beverages block light from filtering down to rest of cooler – side lights would have helped. The temperature control is also mounted with the light switch. There are quite a few restrictions on use. Also, for me at 70 beverages stored is quite a bit less than – BUT to be fair mine were also not all cans and most were stored vertically. Overall, it works well for me and looks nice in living room so I would recommend it.

Insignia - 115 Can Beverage Cooler - Stainless Steel is a spacious, compact refrigerator that is ideal for keeping all of your beverages ice cold and easy to reach. The design is simple, and the glass door adds a nice touch to the aesthetics of the refrigerator. The unit is light and easy to move when empty and the adjustable feet made leveling simple. The interior has multiple adjustable shelves to accommodate many various sizes of drinks. By following the instructions, I was easily able to load the advertised 115 cans of soda in the fridge. When loaded up, I did find that I needed to adjust the temperature of the unit down a notch as the cans had some slush when opening. The internal light adds a nice touch, but one drawback is that it is always on and shining through the glass door. It can be turned off but as a result it no longer comes on even when the door is opened. Overall, this would be a great addition to any bar or mini-kitchen area where you want a compact fridge that functions just as well as it looks.

Clean look and keeps drinks cold! The glass door is a very attractive alternative to the standard black/white/stainless door.

Attractive and stylish! Keeps everything organized and cold. Definitely a great purchase for my entertainment room.

Perfect fit for our need and love the movable shelving vs racks for cans. Great price and looks good.

Very decent price and the right size i been looking for

The cooler is just big enough to hold all of our drinks and small enough to be out of sight. It is just what we needed.

Looks nice , keep stuff cool, i wish it was a bit more sturdy

Just what I needed. Lights up too. Easy peasy installation.
