    Cute mini fridge when I first got it for my classroom! I was totally thrilled about it but after only having it for a month it starts to make these loud and annoying noises for 15-20mins every hour or so. Of course it starts to act up after you can’t return it. Y’all it’s soo cute but not worth the noise and it came dented. Keep looking!!! Trust me

    I bought this fridge because of all the great reviews but honestly the freezer over freezes and the fridge doesn’t really get cold unless you put it all the way in the back of it and then your stuff freezes I am very disappointed

    Stopped working within 2 months. Tried to contact best buy since this product has a 1-year warranty with best buy. Bestbuy keeps transferring me to different individuals and I can't seem to get an answer about how to fix this problem.

    Best College Purchase Ever!

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

    This mini fridge has been a total game changer for dorm life. It’s the perfect size to fit drinks, snacks, and even some leftovers without taking up too much space. The shelves are well-designed, and I love having a small freezer section for ice cream and frozen meals. It runs quietly, so it doesn’t bother me or my roommate when we’re studying or sleeping. Honestly, I don’t know how I’d survive college without it — highly recommend to any student moving into a dorm or apartment!

    Was very excited about this mini fridge and then it developed a Freon leak within less than a month for no reason. It’s leaking these toxic fumes all over my food and in my home. Extremely disappointed and can’t figure out how to get my money back. Please help.

    The noise is super loud. I mainly returned this item because the bottom half of the back is just wide open with all the wires dangling. I was not going to have my cats chew on those wires.

    It might have been good, but the person who loaded t into my car put it on it's side. I took it back because that compromises a refrigerator. I really wanted it, but....

    Cute, Efficient, Hot

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

    Love the retro look. Keeps items cold as recommended. Cute and efficient. Yes, the door handles are cheap plastic, but you don’t need to use them to open the doors. The downside is that the sides get hot. Instructions say that the sides will be 20 degrees warmer than the room temperature. This isn’t bad unless the little fridge is in a warmer spot.
