Cute, convenient, and cost-efficient!
I couldn't be more pleased with this purchase. I bought this mini fridge to use in my office and have been using it for about a week now. There is a slight hum to it, but it is no louder than the air conditioning in the building, and it is easily tuned out as white noise. It also holds a lot for such a compact unit. The shelf is removeable which makes it customizable for many items. A plastic lunch meat container will fit on the bottom and I can stack other items on top of it as well as have space on the side for two soda cans or water bottles. I placed a cup of ice inside during the first day of use and after about three hours, it had not melted. As with any refrigerator, the more that is stored in it, the cooler the inside temperature will be. The price point is perfect for this item as well. I do hope that I'm not disappointed as time goes on, but for now, I am a happy girl! :)

Either poorly handled or used!! Cheap plastic.
Arrived today and there are scuff marks all over the door, crack in the door bubble and crack in door hinge so it doesn't even shut properly. I would be pretty happy with this purchase if it was like 20$ .. but it wasn't and it's definitely not worth more than $35. I would say try a different model or none at all :/ Scuffs are hard to see but they're there.

    Perfect for Tiny Spaces
    I like how compact it is. It fits 12 cans or 6 bottles. It's light weight, so you can take it anywhere. There is also a car attachment to plug in your car. It works perfect for me and my tiny space at work.

    Ruined $600 Jully Jarvis Desk
    This fridge leaked condensation from the front door and will caused around $600 damage on my leveling desk from Fully Jarvis. If I could have someone from the vendor reach our to me it right would very much appreciated. I have contacted Fully, their recommendation is to cut a few holes in the desk and see if that help. Unfortunately that did not help so they have recommended replacing the entire surface since it's impossible to tell if that weakened the desk. It currently holds 3500K worth of equipment on there. ,including '2' 49" monitors, my work machines etc. It would make me sad if this caused my desk to snap in hafl. Prior to this incident this desk was in perfect shape. Any and all help can provide to make this right I would tank you!

    It stopped cooling and it's only been about a month, and there's a huge water stain on my shelf now where it was leaking. Looking inside the vents I can see that the screws are rusting where condensation is leaking through the fridge. It's making water inside and leaking outside. It's so upsetting as the fridge was very cute but very much not worth it.

    Portable fridge
    I keep this mini fridge in my classroom. It's the perfect size to store my lunch or snacks for the day. The package also includes a portable charger, so you could plug the fridge in the lighter compartment and keep items cold in your car. When thinking about those who need to keep medication cold, this may be a use tool when traveling in a car. I've kept yogurt, drinks,frozen foods, smoothies, etc. In the fridge and everything was chilled and satisfying.

    Good enough
    There are pros and cons to this mini fridge. Pros: Size- fits 6 bottles or 12 cans, doesn't take a TON of space up Settings- there are both heat and cool settings. As another reviewer stated it takes a little under an hour to reach “cool” or “warm” settings. Why a warm setting? This would be great for a hot towel or to keep a lunch warm that you can't eat right away. Look- it's retro looking as stated. Timeless to me. Travel- you can plug this in to a lighter outlet in the car. That's super nice if taking a longer road trip with perishables if you don't have access to a good cooler. Cons: Noise- because of its size, it's a little louder because of the power I'm assuming to get it to actually cool and being compact in battery size perhaps? It's kind of just like light white noise. Temp- I wish it could get a little cooler, it's cold but not the temp I personally prefer my beverages. I liked it ice cold, this is better than room temp for sure though. Overall, I'd recommend it for a smaller fridge, my husband would not because he wants his drinks perfectly chilled. I think the pros outweigh the cons.

    Great beverage fridge!
    This mini beverage cooler is adorable but is just that, a beverage cooler. I was surprised to read in the user’s manual that any lunch meats, dairy products, etc. can only be safely kept inside for an hour. It’s also sort of just an empty box- no shelves or any frills like that. So I would not get this expecting to have a full blown mini fridge. For a beverage cooler (or warmer,) however, it is totally ideal!

    Useful
    I received the FRIGIDAIRE, 12 CAN MINI RETRO BEVERAGE FRIDGE, BLACK and am absolutely in love with it! It is so cute. The black is very sleek and the retro vibe is groovy. I tested it out upon receiving it and it worked perfectly. It cooled down took exactly 45 minutes and to my surprise was cold to the touch. I tried it again with the heat up and worked very well too. I imagine that it won't as much when hooked up for travel un the car, but I imagine if you super-cool or pre-heat it the evening before it should do well the next day. We've already used it to take warm food with us over to a family dinner and it stayed warm and fresh the entire time. Right now I use it to keep a few sodas cold for me, but I also have been keeping and expensive bottle of moisturizer in there suggested by my dermatologist. The uses are endless. I am very satisfied.

    Low quality
    I am not satisfied at all with this mini fridge. The main problem with it is that it’s super small, and not put together well. It has a warming function, which is a pretty cool idea, It would work perfectly to keep some food warm. It’s designed with a switch on the back that lets you switch it from cool to hot. When I first turned it on, it was on hot, and the red light was illuminated. I tried to switch it back to cool, but it wouldn’t switch to cold. I took a closer look and noticed that the red light protruded out of the switch panel, but the green one did not. I then tried to switch it to cool again, the switch seemed like it wouldn’t go far enough over, so I pressed on the switch gently to try and get it to switch over, and the switch fell out of the switch panel, into the body of the mini fridge. The finish isn’t bad, but it’s not very good either. The edges seem kind of rough, and there are a couple dimples from the molding process. This is a cheap, low quality product.

    Not a fridge
    This unit is not technically a refrigerator. It is not quality or cold as a true fridge.It doesn't keep drinks any cooler than 44 to 50 degrees. It also has a warm , off and cool settings with the flip of a switch. It's not very loud at all but feels and looks cheap. Made of plastic and very light weight. Okay for drinks but I wouldn't store any food in this unit.It just never gets cold enough for that. So I will just put bottled water in it .It comes with 2 cords one for standard wall and another for a vehicle and instructions.I'm writing this review for the Walmart Spark reviews program and I don't recommend this cooler.

    Works great
    I like this small fridge. It's perfect for my bottle of waters. It can hold 6 16oz which is perfect for people who drink water through the night. The drinks don't get to cold, but it is made for cool not cold. Nice product. I would definitely recommend this to my friends and family. The down side is it has a small buzz to it, but I didn't mind. I still was able to sleep.

    Cute and efficient
    This is a cool retro mini fridge that can hold up to 12 cans of pop. It's great for an office or RV or even a car! There is a hook up that can plug into the car charger! Or you can plug in a regular plug. This is the coolest little fridge and it does the job well. There's also a latch that locks the lid/door closed so it doesn't accidentally open.

    Perfect little fridge!
    I absolutely love this little refrigerator. It easily holds 12 cans or a combination of cans and water bottles or whatever else you need to keep cold. It is the perfect size to keep in my office at work and has a beautiful, sleek design. It also keeps drinks ice cold! It includes 2 plugs, one to use in the car and one for in the house so I can easily take it on the go. The retro design is adorable and looks great in any room. I highly recommend this reasonably priced Frigidaire for ice cold drinks in the house, office or even in the car!
