    TRUCKERS MUST HAVE!

    I’ma truck driver and food is been getting there but if you want to keep a healthier diet, cooking yourself is a no brainier! I’m running this on a 1800 watt inverter with a 2000 surge. It flickers a bit but have been keeping a eye out with the temp. So far it’s been a game changer for me personally. It’s is very efficient hardly does any noise. IT STATES that should not be powered by inverter but these newer pure sine wave inverters are the real deal (imo) The ascetics of this compact fridge are beyond my expectations, pictures don’t do it justice.

    I ordered this via in store pickup. I waited the 1 hour before plugging it in (as the sales associate recommended). It started working perfectly, we just had to add the handles. It stores all of our drinks (for 3 people) perfectly. It's not too loud sitting in our living room, and the color is so cute. We love the flat top, we can set a plant/decorations on top of it.

    This is a great looking and great performing little fridge. We do short-term room rentals out of our historic home, and our first one was for the dining room to stock for guests. The freezer is so much nicer than your typical mini-fridge freezer, yet it's barely bigger than the old mini-fridge we had. Plus, it looks so nice and fits with the decor. When we decided we wanted to get a mini-fridge for a guest room, we originally thought we would get something smaller but this little fridge looks and performs so nice and has a nice price to go with it, that we couldn't resist getting this one too. We had the 2nd one shipped whereas we picked up the first one (we had read multiple reviews that said it was damaged in shipping). We unpacked the second one and no damage - absolutely perfect! The decorative handles were a little easier to get on this second one, so, yeah, those can be a little finicky to get on but once they are on, it's done. The leveling feet were a little harder to adjust on this newest one, but, again, once it's set, you're done. I don't know what people expect at this price point - you aren't getting some authentic heavy metal handle like the fridges this mini-fridge look (emphasis on look) is based on. You really can't do better if you want a reasonably priced mini-fridge that looks better than all the rest and has a ton of space including a real freezer compartment!

    Just got my hands on the Insignia™ Retro Mini Fridge and I'm absolutely in love with it! The mint color adds a pop of retro charm to any space. The compact size is perfect for my camper and it fits seamlessly in my college dorm room. Not only does this mini fridge have a top freezer, but it also comes with ENERGY STAR certification! It's a win-win for both convenience and energy efficiency. The freezer works like a charm, keeping my ice cream and frozen treats perfectly chilled. The overall functionality of this mini fridge is impressive. It keeps my beverages and snacks at the perfect temperature, and the adjustable shelves allow for easy organization. The door storage is a great feature for storing condiments and smaller items. I highly recommend the Insignia™ Retro Mini Fridge to anyone in need of a reliable and stylish refrigerator. It's a game-changer for small spaces and delivers on both form and function. Get ready to fall in love with this little gem!

    This is a mini fridge bought for my baby to store breast milk and food. It's a baby-specific one. The appearance is really great! The color was the one I fell in love with at first sight! The cooling effect is very good and it's not noisy at all. 10 out of 10!

    This is hands-down the cutest mini-fridge. I chose this because we really needed a mini-fridge that had a real freezer, not just a little shelf in a fridge that got icy and didn't really keep stuff frozen. It is so worth it to have the separate fridge, which is super cold, and pretty spacious, which is also true of the main fridge compartment. Perfect size. Really cute design. Works great. Great price. Highly recommended.

    It's cute, it has a good amount of space and it's perfect for a small Apartment space. It works well, I haven't had any issue, it's not super heavy for the size that it is, and holds more than you my might think a mini fridge would for a better price than some other mini fridges I have seen at the time

    OMGosh! My wife thinks this is the cutest refrigerator ever. I bought it because it was going to be four days before our replacement refrigerator would arrive. I had to bring it home on its side. So, I waited four hours before plugging it into the outlet. With the help of some ice cubes from a neighbor, it was perfectly cold within one and a half hours. Even after receiving the big refrigerator, we left this Insignia 3.1 cu. ft. running for beverages. Of course, I've only had it a month, but it is still performing as expected.

    We picked this unit up because our refrigerator failed and it was going to be a few before it was replaced. We ended up getting one in mint (which I kinda like) as it was available for immediate pick up. I appreciate that these use compression refrigeration vs thermoelectric refrigeration (though those definitely have their place) as it means more consistent cooling and a properly functioning freezer. And it does keep things cold. It comes recommended to keep the cooling level set at 4 in that it provides peak performance for fridge and freezer, and they're right. We accidentally turned the knob up to 5 and a few of the liquids at the back of the unit got slushy. Turned it back down and everything was fine (though I do miss the slushy sodas). We've had it about a month now, and everything's working perfectly. What's that? Oh yeah, we kept it in use. It was relocated to cut travel time to and from the kitchen for drinks and snacks. Do remember these are mini fridges; we ended up removing the top shelf as we seemed to have more tall things than short, which cost a bit of real estate but it worked for our needs. As of this post it's a definite recommendation if you have the need.

      Thank you for sharing your experience! We're glad the mini fridge has been a reliable solution while waiting for your main refrigerator. The mint color sounds fun! It's great to hear the compression refrigeration is providing consistent cooling and that the freezer works well. Your tip about keeping the cooling level at 4 is helpful. We're happy it's now conveniently located for drinks and snacks. Thanks for the recommendation! Keith | Insignia Support BBY-ExBrand_Insignia

    I LOVE this little fridge! I bought it to use in my “knee replacement recovery room,” and for my kids to use in college. The freezer is huge and I can store all my ice packs and frozen water bottles for the ice machine inside. Plus some ice cream ;) A little frost inside in the back, but at last I know it’s working. Roomy drawer and doors. The handles are a little flimsy, but should last if we’re gentle. It’s so cute!

    I bought this fridge for my husband as a secret Christmas gift. Best Buy delivered it in the window they said they would and I was able to keep it hidden away until Christmas morning. We set the fridge up in our little bar area in the basement and it looks great and works well. The only issue I maybe have to get used to is that the handles are a little tricky to use until you get used to them. They are not as slick as ones you might see on a large scale, old-fashioned refrigerator. Anyhow, we are very pleased with the purchase and feel it has really helped to dress up the area and also to give us an easy access to drinks, pop, ice, etc. downstairs in what we like to call "The Boiler Room!"
