My unit came in pretty sturdy packaging. The unit works well and is fairly quiet. No issues. Have not seen any frost accumulate after 6 weeks either.

This is a nice little unit. It's been functioning properly and makes very little noise as it runs.

My concern is with the way it is packaged. The packaging does not offer any protection (aside from the cardboard wrapping) against being banged about by package delivery companies. This type of packaging is meant only for bulk freight hauling where pallets of these units are moved around with forklifts.

My unit arrived with a dent near the rear that also knocked loose a support beam. The dent is permanent, but I was able to secure the support beam. Once you open the packaging, it would be very difficult to rewrap in such a way as to return it. So, I'm keeping it because it does work well, and I can't notice the dent by where the unit is placed.

This fridge apparently does not ship well. The top rear corner of my fridge was dented during shipping and the box it came in showed the damage. I thought about returning it but instead decided to avoid the hassle and put it to work immediately. It is a compact fridge. It can't freeze things very well. Do not put a Ben & Jerry's pint in the freezer tray and not expect it to melt or soften. It is quiet and keeps drinks cold. It has removable trays that allow you to customize what kinds of things you keep in it. It is a compact fridge. Do not expect too much of it and you will not be disappointed. I hooked it up to my Kill-A-Watt for a few months and it appears to use about $30/yr of electricity at the "5" (almost coldest) setting.

It is too small, and expensive. You should buy it at Costco cheaper and bigger with same money.
