    Idk maybe I have a different expectation of “cold” but even on the coldest setting , my drinks don’t get as cold as I hoped. Probably just a little colder than a room temperature drink.

    It came damaged. I tried returning it and it was such a hassle to attempt to return it. I say attempt because they wouldn’t accept it at the return because it was an online. They told me to call geek squad to pick it up and they weren’t accepting calls so I called the 1-800 number. I waited for hours to be hung up on.

    This arrived in fall for my child to go to college. Little did we know that a form assignment wouldn’t materialize until winter break so it sat in the house in an empty room until we got the dorm room. I moved the box myself so I am fully aware of how it was treated once in our possession. When we unboxed it there were SO MANY dents and blemishes that I won’t be using this and now I fear I am outside of the timeframe to get a replacement. Talk about a disappointment!

    Ruined my floor

    I loved this fridge at first but then the temp inside started to fluctuate every few days. Not a huge deal because I use it for skincare, and a few other things. Then today I noticed that there's a ton of ice built up in the fridge and it's leaking out from underneath. Likely because there's a random hole inside of the fridge for "draining" that leads to underneath the fridge but there's nothing to actually catch the water so now the flooring under the fridge is ruined.

    Looks nice and keeps things cold, but very noisy and the door frame is too low, so on plush carpet, the bottom door will not have enough clearance from the floor and will get stuck.

    Didn’t actually use product. Creamy vanilla looked a little too beige almost pastel yellow for my taste. Some of the photos made it look like a white/off white but definitely more color.

    Cute, but NOT energy efficient. This refrigerator averages 90 - 92 watts starting cool with a full freezer of frozen food. Then goes down to 88 - 89 during further cooling. NOT 70 watts as Insignia keeps answering. If I knew this I would not have bought. I would return but it is no longer returnable.

    My first brand new fridge. PVC fumes nearly knocked me over. Never thought about it before but that stuff can off gas for decades after the smell is gone. Returned it. Found a floor model elsewhere that was aired out. Keep all my food in glass jars now. Highly recommend you do the same.
