    I ordered this refrigerator on line and when i got it, the outside box was in good shape for the size and being shipped. But, the Mini Fridge was used?? The doors had big dings in them and the back right corner was crushed. The inside also smelled of refrigerant...

    Sent my child to college with the mini fridge in the original box. In less than 90 days the mini fridge died. Best Buy said I can send to the manufacture to trouble shoot it. If it cannot be fixed, then I will need to buy a new one. Ha Ha Ha...... not funny.

    Pretty sure they sent me a used item even though I bought it new. I got around to opening the box a month later and the leveling leg was completely bent off and their was a giant dent in the side. Now neither best buy (not returnable) nor insignia (best buy should accept a return) want to deal with it. They just tell me I should contact the other for support. So I would avoid buying any best buy brand products online since they don't stand by their products.

    The upper compartment was broken, a big dent at the top of the fridge! I’m for sure from the store the fridge is ok. I feel like the carrier is just throwing the fridge like they don’t care. Thats why I don’t like doing online shopping specially for electronics & appliance.

However, I understand your situation and I want you to know that you can take advantage of the 15 day return period that Best Buy grants you for this product by contacting the Post Purchase department at the 1-800 Best Buy line.

    I bought this for my college daughter. It came and she set it up but it has a funny odor and makes the food taste funny. I told her it might need to be cleaned same smell. She put a box of baking soda and still it smells bad. No matter what we do it still smells bad.

    Freezer won’t freeze

    Picked this up for my home bar. The freezer will only freeze ice if you have the fridge turned up to the highest setting. Then your beer freezes in the fridge if you forget to turn the setting back down after your ice is frozen. I looked in the manual. That’s even what it says to do to make ice.

      Hi.

      We appreciate your understanding of the situation, as this fridge is small it also requires extra power in order to get into freezing points. We are certainly open to find a solution for this and will keep in mind your particular feedback for future iterations of this product.

    The back wall of the refrigerator freezes up even at the warmest setting. One day there will be ice against the back wall, then no ice some days latter. I use this as a classroom fridge for water, soda and lunch. I can't use it for salads because it may freeze them.
