UPDATED: Spacious! Well Packaged! Looking for a drip pan solve though.
UPDATE 30 December 2020Been on for about 3 weeks now. Runs really quiet when its not actively cooling - I'm less than 10 feet from it and I can't hear it at all right now. When the cooling cycle is on, its not overly loud.The fridge is fully stocked and works really well. I'm using it mostly to keep drinks cold; I could have gotten a beer cooler or drink cooler, but I wanted the separate freezer so I could make ice and possible store some frozen stuff. If you don't have those needs, you'll be better off getting a dedicated beer cooler. As it is, I ended up having to pull out both the "crisper" bin and one of the shelves in order to stock it full of long-necked bottled beer and soda. I just can't stand the taste of beer from a can - so if you don't have long-necked bottles, you'll do fine with the adjustable shelves.Full up, it holds 12 bottles of beer + 12 cans of Pelligrino carbonated/flavored water on the main shelf. Where the crisper bin was, I've got 4 bottles of water + 12 cans of soda (with 4 of them laying horizontal on top of the others). On the door, 6 more cans of soda and 3 bottles of water.For the drip pan solution, I purchased this drip pan (https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B007RXBTI0/) - which is the perfect size but a bit deep - and then ordered this "dorm fridge base" (https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B089B2WRS4/) and unscrewed the feet from the base. I've got about an inch of clearance now between the base of the fridge and the top of the drip pan - which is plenty to allow the door to open and close freely while protecting the carpet.Drinks are cold and ready at hand in my game room. Mission accomplished.ORIGINAL REVIEWEarly Christmas 2020 gift.Haven't turned it on yet - it's going on the carpet in my gaming den and I'm still working out how best to put a drip pan under it just to make sure to protect the carpet from condensation, etc. Keep in mind: I'm not getting a drip pan because it leaks; I'm getting a drip pan because it makes sense to protect the carpet in case something were ever to go wrong. It just makes sense.Was securely packaged, no damage or dents or anything.Surprised how LARGE it is. Lots of space inside, nice finish; once I stock this baby up, my wife and kids would never see me again. For one guy that plans to use it to hold beers, soda and various items for mixing cocktails when I have friends over to play boardgames, tabletop games, it may be overkill - but I really wanted to have a separate ice maker AND I like the flexibility of being able to store other stuff in it. :). I imagine this thing would be PERFECT for a dorm room or small apartment to hold a few days worth of groceries for 1-2 people.Was glad the feet are adjustable - was able to level it on carpet and am sure to do so again once I get the drip pan situation solved. For others looking to put a drip pan under your mini-fridge, BE SURE TO CHECK THE DEPTH OF THE DRIP PAN. There is a Wirthco drip pan that is the perfect size for this fridge but WAY TOO DEEP (1.5 inches). You'll either need to find a different solution (I've looked but haven't found any alternative option that is as perfectly sized) OR raise the fridge up at least an inch or so (I'm working on that) so that the door clears the pan...otherwise, can't open the door.Will update my experience if something changes down the line after I turn it on and start to use it.Ver másVer menos
