    Aesthetic is a 10, functionality is a 5

    Very cute and easy to use, got cold very quickly. However, it sweats a lot and no matter what you set the thermostat to, it freezes everything that sits on the top shelf of the fridge. This fridge is good for drinks, but couldn't even fit my yogurts and fairlife bottles. Just wasn't big enough for what I needed and it sweat way too much.

    Broke in under 2 months

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Loved it at first, even though it was cheaply made. (Handles popped off easily and the plastic piece that covered the hardware on top wasn't even attached, so it could just get knocked off if you weren't careful.) After about a month, it stopped working. The lights would still come on, but no refrigeration. Too bad, it was very cute. A lot of people seem to have this same problem after a while. Probably best to just spend a little more and get something reliable.

    Buy a Different Fridge

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Terrible.. the back of the fridge is literally 12° colder than the front of the fridge (I’m not exaggerating… I put 2 fridge thermometers in it, one at the front and one at the back). In order to keep the entire fridge at least 40°, I can’t really put anything on the shelves unless it’s right up at the front, otherwise it’ll freeze. Because of this major issue, I use it mostly for drinks, not food.

We understand that this is a major issue and we're taking it seriously. I'm going to make sure that our team looks into this and works on finding a solution to rectify this problem.

    Too Noisy for a Nursery

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I really wanted to like this fridge! I was looking for a stylish retro mini fridge for our nursery. Unfortunately, the compressor is LOUD. So loud that we had to take it back and ended up exchanging it for a comparable Frigidaire. Not as cute, but way quieter with similar features.
