My wife and I are extremely pleased with our purchase of the NewAir beverage fridge at Best Buy. The unit was easy to set up and begin using and compliments the wine fridge we already had. It has a large capacity and fits all the beverages we typically store and looks sharp as well. We received great service at the store. They helped us determine which unit would be best for us and loaded it into my vehicle after purchase. Delivery was also an option.

Great product. My family loves it. Well worth the money. If you’re keeping sodas, I recommend to keep on 4. Also do not let any drinks touch the back panel because it will freeze. Please buy!

This was substantially more expensive than some of the other brands so I expected the quality to be substantially better also. It's nice looking and keeps cold but way, way, WAY to loud. Going to return and try another.

So far so good.
Works as it should.
Was missing the adjustable feet - but after two tries with the customer service of the manufacturer - got those.
So other than an initial inconvenience that’s been correct - like the product.

I read reviews stating this fridge was noisy and I wish I had listened. It's a little too noisy for me and the fridge does not stay at a 42 degree cooling point, it fluctuates. If it was not for the noise I think I would have given this fridge 4 stars

This refrigerator does not live up to expectations. The back of the refrigerator freezes while the front is barely cool. I’ve had this refrigerator for a little over 6 months and I am extremely disappointed. I will never buy another NewAir product

Not as good as I thought

At first I received the beverage center without a scratch. Hooked it up and let it sit for 4 days and adjusted the temp gradually. Got the temp down to 38-40 degrees according to me Taylor commercial thermometer on a 85 degree day. On cold nights about 65 degrees ambient temp, the beverage center goes down to about 35-38 degrees. On 90 degree ambient temp days it stays about 43-46 degrees. Which is ok but for beer it is on the cool side. Once it goes down to the 35 range it's perfect but that doesn't happen often. I've had it for about 3 months now. No issues besides the cooling capability and it sides alone, nothing next to it besides the back wall which is about 12 inches away.
If you're looking for something to store beer, go with something like the Bud Light / Budweiser beverage center. Temperature goes down to the high 20's. Frost builds up on most beers.

DO NOT PURCHASE! Gasoline-stench

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
WARNING! DO NOT WASTE your money on this at all, only after a little over 2 years from date of purchase, the fridge had given out a gasoline/gas-like stench that covered the entire interior shelves and anything you put inside. I tried removing the shelves and wiping down the inside with Lysol and turning down the temperature and unplugging it and it still releases this gasoline stench. I tried contacting the company and all they can do out of the one-year manufacture was offer a 40% off code to purchase a new one without guaranteeing that it would not happen to any other fridge. I cannot see myself replacing a fridge every 2 years which is ridiculous when this unit cost me $350. Do not purchase this brand as it would be my very last.

After looking at all the reviews, I decided to pick it up at the store and check it out for damage. I did a quick look but should have REMOVED the plastic bag/wrapping to check it out further. It has a dented top corner that does not affect my installation but there was no box damage so this must have happened at the manufacturer. All said, it works great!

I would say it’s good. Be careful how cold you turn it. I had some cans freeze at 7 on the dial. So I didn’t like that. Otherwise good so far.
