Product Description

Amazon.com Review

It's so nearly a cube, you could paint dots on the sides and roll it around the dorm instead of a die--but no doubt that has already been tried. For more mundane purposes, this is a good small refrigerator unit with everything you need. There's storage space for milk, juice, butter, and more in the door, a 6-by-6-inch freezer compartment with two ice trays, a removable center rack, and a simple dial for thermostat control. All inside surfaces are easy-to-clean plastic. --Richard Farr

4.0 out of 5 stars Good value, but has some flaws, August 25, 2000

I bought this fridge because I needed one small enough to fit in my dorm room, but still hold a gallon of milk or a six pack of soda, if necessary. Size-wise, I'm very pleased with the product; it'll fit in tight spaces and still holds everything I need (the freezer can hold a container of Ben & Jerry's, which is always nice). It has a removable shelf, so you can even fit large items if you're willing to sacrifice some space.

My only complaint with the fridge is its temperature regulation. Items I put in the refrigerator part get partially frozen, and items in the freezer part start melting almost immediately (you have to eat the Ben & Jerry's all in one go!). If you plan on having a lot of frozen food in your room or hate it when your milk's a little frosty, this fridge may not be for you, but otherwise the price and compact size make it a good buy.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Frige!, June 17, 2000

This was a wonderful refrigerator, just what I needed for my dorm room. It's small enough to fit at the bottom of a closet, but on the inside you can fit all you need! I say buy this Frige, but if you want something for a house to fit food for a whole family, get something a little larger.

1.0 out of 5 stars What do you use a dorm fidge for..., August 22, 2000

You use it for BEER! This is a horrible fridge for bottles of beer. You have to remove the one and only shelf to stand them up and then you can only fit a six pack in with two on their sides in the door. The next size up fits more than a case and is only (usually) $50-100 more and well worth it.
