These are cute little fridges if you don't want to use them all the time. They cannot be plugged in days on end, the cord breaks or the motor goes out and the parts are expensive to replace. If you want something that gives you longevity go for a regular compact fridge which do not cost much more than the Koolatron items.

Similar units are now very inexpensive, but still not worth the price. It seems they are all made the same and have no life-span. I had purchased a Koolatron unit last year, and 3 other brands this year. Each of them lasted less than 1 month, but I thought the next one would be better - not so. The manufacturer needs to do a lot of work to make these little cooler/warmer units something more than throw-away items.

I bought the fridge in April 2003. Five months later in September the electrical cord died and I had to purchase an adapter for $25. Now in May 2004 the fridge won't cool anymore. I had it in my office so obviously it was not designed to be plugged in 24/7. Don't bother calling the company. Their customer service is lousy and the operators can barely speak English. For the money I spent I could have purchased a larger fridge that also has a small freezer. Well now I'm going to have to purchase a new one so the $100+ I spent on this set up is wasted.. The only reason I will even give it one star is for the cute look of the fridge. I'm now going to buy an ugly working one! :-)

STOP! Don't waste your money!...I purchased the Koolatron compact fridge and within 90 days the vent would freeze.I was sold with the image of this unit having the ability to run 24/7 but that's not the case.Every week I'm having to unplug the unit to avoid the ventilation from freezing.Good luck calling customer service...they barely speak english. The reason I rated with a 1 star is because I can't rate it a zero!

Bought this item from Target and it stopped cooling before I even the one year date of the purchase. It is not meant for the long haul.
