LaurieCoolant gurgling is just too loud!
I love that the cabinet color is white and it looks very nice in our family room - BUT I am so sad that the noise has not subsided like mfr directions said it would. We have had it a full week and the rhythmic up and down gurgle sound is so annoying. It’s like they did not add enough coolant so there is too much air in the lines. We rarely open it and how l is on for - almost constantly running! So so sad that we will be returning to Home Depot.

        Nice refrigerator, but it has a loud motor and makes a sound of water running through the system. Seems a lot for such a small unit.

            Fits our space well. We use 3 of the 5 shelves for the size beverages we have for sale. This still leaves room for 8 of each flavor, 2 flavors per rack. There is also a built in bar that is ment to hold item in the bottom area. It can be removed, but we have let it and hope to offer fresh fruit or some other grab and go items in the future and that would be a perfect spot for that. It does have some condensation on the outside which kind of fogs up the glass, but it wipes off and doesnt return for the whole day.

            Defective. Does not cool. It seemed to work the first few days but now it will not cool below 50 degrees. Sounds like the coolant is "chugging" through system, not a smooth flow, maybe that's the problem, just a guess. I put a thermometer in the fridge and 55 is a cold as it gets. Something is wrong, I will be retuning this to Home Depot. I know I can return it but what a pain.

              Gets very cold so much so that some cans actually busted from freezing over but it has a very good drain feature on it. Glass is very easy to clean and see through. Light provides a nice touch as well. We use this in a gym and the locking feature was an imperative when we were looking for a mini fridge. No issues 2 months into ownership! would buy again.

                Love this refrigerator!
                I wanted a beverage refrigerator so I could free up space in my regular fridge. This one is great. It keeps my drinks really cold and holds a lot of cans. Just don't turn the dial to the coldest setting or it will freeze your drinks. I would have given 5 stars but the one drawback is that the spacing is really tight between the shelves.

                Needed a dedicated beverage friend this designed for that. Tall boys, standard cans, etc. Perfect.

                We like the looks, the size and the coolness it provides for wine, soda, etc. BUT.... IT IS UNDER OUR KITCHEN PENISULA & WAY TOO NOISEY.....GURGLING, WHINING, ETC. Since under that counter is the place we purchased for, we will decide soon if we are going to return it. Very disappointed for the $ we paid. If it has to do with the coolant, there must be some remedy and many complaints.
