Review: It works great for me - UPDATE: 4 months in and it's still working great and I'm still very happy with it. I bought this because my 10 year old Igloo died suddenly (not TOO suddenly, I had already talked about buying a new one in the next month or so) and I needed something ASAP. It's not exactly what I would have liked (I'm not a fan of the can holder thing. I'd rather have shelves. Also, the freezer is generally a waste of space but try to find one without on short notice) but it's basically what I had before so I can work with it. It arrived today. I pulled it out of the box and like most large appliances, it sits on a base and the box slides over top then they wrap it in heavy plastic straps to hold it together. I immediately noticed that it had been dented on the top corner however, there was no damage to the box in that area. None. Not a wrinkle. It feels like it was damaged BEFORE being boxed and maybe that's why so many arrive damaged - because it's happening before it's even shipped and desertcart can't see it because it's in a nice new box. You'll notice if you look at the picture there's a bit of rust on it. That didn't happen between Thursday and Saturday. Sure, I could return it for a new one but that means dragging it through the house again, figuring out how to get it back in the box and then, figuring out how to get the box to stay together since I don't have the ability to create new heavy duty plastic straps and tape is NOT going to cut it. I was not happy. I contacted desertcart and told them what had happened and they graciously offered me a choice between keeping it and being given a partial refund or returning it for a new one. Given my previous paragraph, you can guess what I chose. So now that I'd gotten that out of the way it was time to set it up and then plug it in. First then, because of the placement, I need it to open from the other side. While I was able to do it, they didn't make it easy. The plastic part that covers where the door connects on the top was a giant PITA to remove. I basically had to pry at it with a flat head screw driver and slightly damage the plastic in doing so. They are not alone in this though. Every refrigerator I've had or seen pretty much has the same problem. I had hoped that since they specifically pointed out that it had a reversible door, maybe they had done something to make it easier. Nope. Then while trying to screw in the bottom bracket for the door, I found that the hole had been sealed by insulating foam. I just hit it a few times with a small screwdriver until it popped through. Once I got past that, the rest was pretty straightforward and the door now swings open from the other side. Now that I was ready to go, I moved it into place and leveled it off and then plugged it in. Nice and quiet. Very quiet. SO quiet I'm concerned it's not working... but it seems to be doing alright. I opened the door and was surprised to see a light! I thought I must have missed that in the description when I bought it but going back I can't find it anywhere. So, BONUS! Having the light is really nice and I'm glad it has it. Next, I pulled out the manual and drip tray then started to arrange the shelves . That's when I noticed something odd. The drip tray didn't slide in under the freezer like it should. It was too small. Turns out, that's a feature not a bug. Apparently you're just supposed to either set the tray on the top shelf permanently or take it out and only put it in when you need it. I'm not sure how I feel about that. Nothing in the description prepared me for it and it's certainly not like that in the images. But that's how it is now. You can see that mine doesn't resemble the images shown. I really don't mind the idea of the drip tray being separate, I just wish they had a place to PUT it. That would make sense, right? One nice thing about having the drip tray with a mini-fridge like this is that often times things on the top shelf will freeze slightly. I used the drip tray in my other fridge to hold a piece of styrofoam that partially insulated what was underneath and it helped quite a bit. The temperature dial on mine is way off. It goes from 0-6 but mine goes well past 6, to what might be 11. Does that mean that mine is colder than everyone else's? Is it some kind of psychological thing to make me *feel* like it's colder? Is it just broken? Is it just missing the numbers? I'll probably never know. What I do know is that it's plenty cold and it stays that way, all while making (what feels like) almost no noise. This feels like a solid purchase. I hope it stays that way!
Review: What is all the fuss? - I read many reviews for this mini fridge, and a number of people complained of it breaking down, poor fit and finish, poor temperature controls, and an inability to get things cold. I bought it anyway, because I happened to see one at a local store--for $60 more. (Note at this time that there was one review I wish I had read before I bought this...the one that tells you you don't have to cut all the straps, and the box, and all of the packing materials to get the fridge out...you just cut the straps and lift the box off the unit..) I got it inside, spent maybe 30 seconds leveling it up, then turned it on halfway and left it alone for an hour. It was cooling down nicely, so I turned it up to 3/4, and filled it up with food. It got COLD, and the eggs (which I had put on the top shelf below the freezer) were frozen. Okay; so a little trial and error, and this thing is great. It keeps everything perfectly cold, and will even keep small things frozen (like the ice cube tray, or a pint of ice cream) but the rest of the things in the fridge might tend to get a little too cold. At regular settings, the ice cream might get a little thawed. But contrary to some of the other reviews, I think this is a great unit. When it turns on, it has a TINY humming noise, and it makes a funny little whooshing or gurgling sound, but it is neither loud, nor offensive--in fact, when it turns on, I look around for what is causing the faint noise, and it takes me a few second to realize, "Oh, yeah; it's the fridge..." I've had it for a month now, and it has functioned flawlessly. When it arrived, the exterior was undented, unscratched, and the door fit perfectly. I can't speak highly enough about this unit (and I can't complain about the amount of food it holds) and should I ever want to get another mini-fridge (for my shop, for instance) I know which one I would get-this one. THREE MONTH UPDATE: I'm in the middle of the third month, and the fridge is still perfect--AND I finally figured out how to use the freezer. See, it has a little door that slides down into place (I didn't realize that because I'm a guy and never read the instruction manuals) so now my freezer AND refrigerator are perfect. A note to potential buyers: buy square or rectangular plastic containers in which to store stuff. This fridge will surprise you with what it will hold, but round containers waste a lot of space. Update: late November 2021: I am still absolutely delighted with this fridge. I tweaked it, and right now, I have 18 eggs, , a pound of hamburger, mustard, mayo, jelly and tartar sauce, a large onion, a bundle of scallions, two LARGE green peppers, a 2 lb. ham steak, a few odds and ends...and a pint of Ben& Jerry's along with a bag of frozen peas in the freezer; oh--and did I mention the 9 cans of soda and gallon of milk in the spaces on the door? You can find thin, tall 1 gallon containers on desertcart that fit in the door space perfectly. I rarely give effusive reviews, but I simply can't say enough about this fridge, from its practicality, ease of use, and storage ability. Once again, let me confirm what I said before: use square or rectangular containers for the most efficient use of space (and cooling). Update, March 2022. This will probably be my last update. How many times and ways can you say "This thing is fabulous!" without repeating yourself? I have not had one single, solitary problem with this fridge. Yrs, you have to shop a little more carefully, and sometimes get creative with how you store things, but when you consider that I can store two weeks worth of groceries in a fridge that was $800 less expensive than the one I THOUGHT that I needed, I can live with that. Update, March 2023...It's still perfect, and I'm still happy with it.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How many cans of beer fit in this thing?**
A: I use it for beer mainly. I drink 16 oz Coors and the wife 12 oz budlight clamatos. I can fit 20 Coors on the main level and 4 have to go to the bottom. Wife's clamatos go on top. Can fit 20 up there. Plus the door holds extras or whatever else. Awesome fridge for the price.

**Q: why are so many arriving dented as per reviews?**
A: I'm thankful for reviews that rate the purchase experience which includes delivery. I'm always leery when purchasing an item like this for delivery. Some of it is packaging, controllable by the manufacturer. Some of it is choice of delivery service, controllable by the merchant. UPS was really bad about delivering banged up stuff. Now it's FedEx. Sometimes I suspect they're hostile to Amazon and WalMart. Just a suspicion though. USPS seems to be more careful; I always rest easier when I see an item was shipped USPS. But they don't do big appliances.
 When an item arrives banged up it's not like I'm there and given a chance to inspect and accept/refuse. So then I'm stuck with trying to figure out how to return it. Usually I just live with it and promise myself not to order a large fragile item for delivery ever again... but necessity eventually persuades me to do so. 
So I hope folks still warn others when items are arriving damaged. And the best way to do that is by rating what you receive for the money you spent. Not "rate the product, not the delivery" :) That's not helpful.
My frig just died so I was looking a a small cheap "good enough for now" replacement but... I don't know now.

**Q: I don't have a single outlet available in my room, just one under my closet. Does this thing require an outlet?**
A: What they likely mean is, would it be safe to use the fridge with an extension cord, or would it need to be plugged directly to an outlet. I would say that if you were to get an extension, to make sure it's a low-number gauge, and as short as possible. That should decrease the possibility of it heating up and causing a fire. But of course it would be best to plug it in directly to an outlet.

**Q: What are the dimensions**
A: I got 17 1/2 inches wide, 31 inches high and 19 inches deep at it's deepest point.  These are outside dimensions.
