Frigidaire Retro Compact Fridge with Chiller, 3.2 cu ft Countertop Fridge with Built-In Bottle Opener, Compact Refrigerator for Office, Bedroom, Dorm Room or Cabin - 16.5" D x 19" W x 31" H (Red)

Jul 2024 REPLACEMENT REVIEW: I ordered the exact same fridge, but the blue model. Delivery was on time, but upside down. This is NOT the same product that I had previously, but none of the changes impact functionality for my intended use, namely:-The outside of the 2021 red fridge was smooth and shiny. This 2024 blue fridge has a textured, grime collecting surface for the box, but a much preferred shiny door.-Note that the top product images show different inside door styles from the rest of this website. My 2021 red fridge had wire shelving; this one has plastic. Either should work just fine, but note that the plastic soda holders have holes in the bottom of each holder. Laying the meds down covers the hole.-2021 red version lacked an interior light; this one has a light.-2021 red freezer door was solid plastic; 2024 blue is vented plastic. Based upon other reviews, this newer style results in colder top shelf and warmer bottom of fridge temps. I haven't had it long enough to test. I hope that the new one, like the old one, does NOT freeze my meds.-2021 red freezer came with a mini ice cube tray. The freezer made ice just fine. 2024 blue model lacks an ice cube tray.-2021 red maintained refrigerator temperatures, per my thermometer. 2024 seems adequately cold; I haven't unpacked my thermometer yet.-2021 red had a shorter cord than the 2024 blue fridge.-2021 red had a thin plastic film on the fridge that made it look like the fridge was badly scratched. 2024 blue had no plastic film or bag wrapping it.-BOTH DELIVERIES were fine. No damage to boxes or refrigerators.Even though this 2024 blue fridge is NOT what I expected, it should still store my meds without a problem. IF young children were using this, then I'd prefer the wire shelving because plastic breaks too easily. That said, I bought trays to hold my meds in the door because they slipped under the wire and fell out. I do like the colors of both the red and the blue refrigerators.Apr 2024 UPDATE: I gave this away when I moved (advertised it as not working, ideal for a tinkerer); it worked when the recipient plugged it in. Apparently this was an electrical issue at my apartment, so I moved this back to five stars.Dec 2023 EDIT: It is dead. It worked for 2 1/2 years.Feb 2022 EDIT: This product was delivered in June 2021. It's now Feb 2022 and my lovely red refrigerator is still doing a fantastic job!!!I ordered this to keep my refrigerated meds cold without taking up space in my kitchen refrigerator or having the meds packaging absorb food odors. I also store beverages in it to take my oral meds. The door can hold one 2 quart bottle, or two 1 quart bottles, but not a 3 quart bottle. A 3 quart bottle fits lying down on the middle shelf. I don't happen to store beverage cans in it, so I cannot comment on that.My thermometer confirms that this product keeps within a normal range of refrigerated temps properly. This is important for my meds.Note that a number of reviews complain about scratches all over the exterior. This problem is resolved by removing the thin plastic film from the outside of the refrigerator. Tada!!! No scratches!Note that it is NOT frost-free. Plan to defrost every 4 to 6 weeks. Simply remove products from the refrigerator and place a couple of kitchen towels on the top shelf. Unplug for an hour or two. Wipe down the interior and the freezer drip tray. Plug in and return items to the refrigerator.I don't use the freezer section.I opted not to install the bottle opener. I tend to open the refrigerator using the finger indentations conveniently molded into the top of the door, so I cannot comment on the durability o the handle. However, the handle does match the style of Frigidaires from my youth.Delivery was much earlier than scheduled. I had to scramble to get someone to take it indoors because it arrived a week early and I was out of town. I had selected the slowest delivery available. Note that delivery is an AMAZON issue, NOT a manufacturer, seller, or shipper issue.I would absolutely buy this again for myself or a gift!

Have a wonderful day

Workhorse retro looking office fridge. No issue with noise and keeps items cold. Plenty of storage room for a home office/one person. I don't use the freezer portion much and only had to defrost once in couple of years of having it.

Very happy with the way it cools. This is outside under my bar so it's gonna work a little harder. Keeps the beer nice and cold. The only knock I have against it is the handle is plastic. I thought it was metal when I ordered it. The handle is cheap. If not for that I'd be giving 5 stars.

Refrigerator arrived damaged. There are at least 3 hits to the corner door which ruins the appearance. There's another dent on the side, but that one didn't bother me. I reached out to the manufacturer who simply said it was shipping damage and to return it to seller. They also said my warranty was now voided. I JUST wanted a new door shipped to me to keep an otherwise working refrigerator out of the landfill. Not only did they deny that since they had my serial number, they VOIDED MY WARRANTY. Talk about customer disservice!I believe the damage might not have occurred if it was packaged better. There wasn't much side protection and the corner protection. The corners (where the damaged occurred) had thin non-corrugated cardboard. There was styrofoam on top and bottom and some cardboard on the sides.Don’t be fooled by the name, Frigidaire doesn’t manufacture these refrigerators. You are not buying a name-brand product. The manufacture is Cutris International that is based in Canada. The refrigerator is made in China. The warranty may not be good if it’s not sold through a “reputable dealer.” I have had manufactures deny warranty though products purchased though Amazon. Do your research.Maybe this was meant to be returned because it really has some annoyances that would have bothered me...1) Despite having a handle, it's just a plastic non-moving part. The refrigerator door is much harder to open using the handle. There's a lot more suction to it. So much, the whole refrigerator pulls towards you. Mine is on a table. It's much easier opening it from the top like normal mini refrigerator. So the handle is just for show. I could imagine at parties people getting confused because its so hard to open. “Yeah, ignore that handle and just open at the top…”2) There's a smaller glass shelf on the bottom is not level to shelf behind it. If you're using it as a drink cooler (my intention,) then anything you stack on that shelf is not level with that little piece of glass. There’s not “two shelves,” it’s one and a half. The full-size shelf could be higher or lower. Why not just include an extra shelf to maximize space? They didn’t and the parts guy was too busy voiding my warranty to give me a price on a second full size shelf.3) The freezer is tiny. It’s only 3” tall, 12” wide, and 8” deep. What are you going to put in there? A small TV dinner? The freezer and tray underneath is 5” of wasted space. They should have saved that option for a bigger refrigerator. It’s useless.On a positive side, the refrigerator does work well. My drinks are cold. It’s very quiet. Had it not arrived damaged I might have kept it and just fixed some of the annoyances.

This is a great fridge and so cute!!!! I got it for my husband to use in his new garage and he loves the retro look. The fridge holds quite a few different size bottles and cans which is really good when you are thirsty!!

When our refrigerator compressor went out, we were informed it would take 6 weeks to get a service rep out, run diagnostics, order the new part and arrange a repair date. This happened a few weeks before Thanksgiving :(. We found ourselves at a loss as how to maintain a modicum of refrigerated foods, so started looking for a small refrigerator. This eye-catching little number fit the bill. It was affordable, relatively spacious and attractive. Once unpacked and set up, we were delighted that it was well laid out, kept foods cold and was very quiet. Other than the small freezer compartment building up a layer of frost, I would say it was perfect. People coming over to the house have commented on how 'cute' it looked. Would definitely recommend.
