    Decent Unit, nice Size but Dented

    I chose this refrigerator solely for its size. I keep a fridge under my desk at work. The compact refrigerators are too small. I had one with a freezer, which froze up constantly and took up valuable space. The 3+ CF refrigerators are too tall for the space, so this is a happy medium and I’m actually glad there is no freezer. I switched the door direction and that took about 20 minutes to swap out the hardware. After plugging it, it started to get cool pretty quickly. Shelves are okay for the price. A little cheap, but about what I expected for the price. The lower shelf is a small piece of glass because the cabinet makes up the back half of the shelf. Ever time the door is opened, it rattles and sounds like it will fall out. I’m going to use some sort of putty to wedge into the gap below the shelf to hopefully get rid of the rattle. Other than that, I was disappointed at how many dings are on this. I expected maybe a small dent on the box of the unit, but the door has a noticeable dent. There are dents on both the back two corners as well. It’s nothing that affects operation, just tough to accept when you’re buying a brand new unit (and non-open-box special). I’m not really sure how to let Best Buy know about the damage, so I can’t say if they’ll compensate for the damage or offer a replacement. Though I really don’t want to exchange it after tinkering with the door already. Overall, decent unit for a small price tag.

    Needed a mini fridge in my detail area and after looking at reviews and quality, I decide to get this. I was skeptical about ordering it due to many customers complaining about receiving it damaged. Well its true. Its doesn't come in well packaged to start. Once i received it, I inspect the box and it has normal wear from transportation. But once I removed all the protective foam, theirs a huge dent on the door. The foam that was protecting the door edge was not damaged nor cracked. Which means it comes from the Manufacturer damaged. But overall its quite, looks good and REALLY MAKES YOUR DRINKS COLD! Despite the damage, Love it and recommended it . Just hope your doesn't come too damaged.

    This fridge is amazing and sleek and very well spaced out. It fits perfectly in the corner of my small salon suite. The delivery or whoever does the inventory really does a number on these boxes and my fridge arrived dented. I don’t know if it’s Best Buy or the delivery team however I’m very annoying that my BRAND NEW fridge has a huge dent. Love the fridge though. So for that I’ll be leaving a 5 but just know i think you should order it in person or at another store.

    This Fridge is Cool—Really

    I bought this little fridge to put on my back porch near the pool. It mostly holds water. I noticed it did not have a separate freezer unit, so more of the interior is available for bottled water. It is replacing a 12 year old similarly sized fridge and so far...about a month—it is working perfectly. The porch is not cooled and the fridge spends part of the day with sun on it, but it seems to be keeping the drinks pretty cold. I would buy it again.

    When I initially purchased my little refrigerator and brought it home, I immediately had to return it due to damage it must have received in store. Inspected the next fridge for damage: none. Plugged it in. Followed the directions and now I have a mini bar in my master bedroom!! Keeps my champagne, sake and sparkling water cold and has plenty of room for treats and cheeses. This model does not have a light inside, which would be something to keep in mind if considering to purchase; otherwise, it’s this lazy girl’s dream come true! = D

    Mini fridge without freezer

    I love this mini fridge. I didn’t plan to buy one this big. My husband busted a hole through the wall of my other busting ice off the freezer. When I saw this one with no freezer I was sold on it. He has a horrible OCD about keeping the fridge organized. I knew this one was what he needed. We love it. It got cold really fast. We like our drinks so cold that there about ice. This does the job and it’s not turned up that high. We thought it be like the other one we had so we turned it all the way up. Luckily we only put one drink in it. We have this in the bedroom. It’s not very noisy. My air purifier is louder then it. They’ve got it set perfectly now and just absolutely loving it. I didn’t even know they made this kind but I’m sure glad I found it. Need more advertisement on these. I never took the plastic off the front if it’s noticeable in pics.

    Very nice fridge which will be perfect for your RV or a semi truck. Fits ideally under Kenworth T680 table and much roomier than the stock fridge so I can have enough groceries that will last for about a week. It doesn't have a freezer compartment but I don't complain since I don't need it. I like the fact that it's energy efficient and in my case another fridge with a freezer compartment would definitely consume more energy and drain my truck's batteries much faster. Right now my fridge blocks an access to the shelves behind it where I keep my kitchen stuff that's why I want to mount 4 tiny wheels to the bottom so I can roll it in and out with ease.

    Good sized fridge - holds water, soda, loaf of bread, juice and other goodies. It's has clean lines and arrived with only a small dent. It cools nicely - getting nice and cold without freezing things. It is super handy. I have it in my bathroom and have enjoyed having my own little fridge to keep things close by and easy to access. I dressed it up by putting a runner on it and decorations so it would fit in with my decor. Cons are- sides get hot but I don't stand there touching it so not much of an issue for me. It makes odd little popping noises and just noise in general - nothing white noise from a fan doesn't cover. Overall very pleased with it.

    I can say that this mini fridge gets the job done. I have it in a room that can get very hot in the middle of the summer and it can still handle to get the drinks very cold, even on setting #5 (Max setting is #7). Sometimes it gets hot on the sides but it's just the compressor doing it's job. We don't open it that often, maybe once every couple hours. The size is great for most drinks, though I had to remove one shelf in order to be able to fit glass bottles. I have each shelf on the picture at less than it's 50% capacity so still plenty of room.

    Just got my mini fridge today. Was what I wanted with no freezer and nice size. It's quiet. My only complaint (like others) is that it came dented. It's not affecting the fridge. Just the look since the dent is on the front of the door. Next time I would purchase directly from the store so I could see it first.

    Plenty of room for your favorite sodas, snacks, and condiments. Regular sized hot sauce bottles fit fine in the soda racks. You can't fit too much inside but that is fine because you will likely go through anything you store at work more slowly than at home. Easy to transport, unpack and install. I keep mine at the number 3 settings since at the recommended #4, I was getting a bit of icing. For me, not having a freezer is fine.

    The fridge itself is great. Just what I was looking for in size with no freezer. Now to the bad just like some others have said mine arrived with the back top corner beat up. What's funny is I inspected the box when it got off the FedEx truck and there is 0 damage to the box so I accepted shipment. Not a knock on the appliance itself just an FYI if you are looking to have it shipped.

    My son loves it and it cools very well. He actually said one of his bottles froze. So I know it cools well. It fits perfect in his room. Great product and I love the bottle/can holders in the door, it frees up some space in the fridge.

    Perfect size mini-fridge for keeping canned beverages nice and cold. Very quiet. Door can be configured to open in either direction. Shelves can be easily removed/adjusted to comfortably hold 15 12oz cans on each shelf (x3). Extra room on the bottom and additional bottle slots in the door. You can’t beat it for the price! Perfect for a dorm room.

    The first one I picked up in store had a huge dent, Manager went out of his way to get me a replacement the next day from another location. Great for the price, Keeps cans ice cold, no freezers so it really holds a lot of cans. Would have been a 5 star but poorly packaged from factory. Open the box before you leave the store.
