Igloo 1.7 Cu Ft Bar Fridge Wht

Positives: inexpensive, cools well, is relatively quiet (suitable for an office setting even near workers' desks).Negative: has drip tray. All refrigerators accumulate moisture via condensation. Better refrigerators collect condensation and use the compressor's generated heat to evaporate it. Cheaper ones collect condensation into a tray that needs to be watched and emptied on occasion.

Item arrived with a big dent on the door.

We use it to store the family insulin. Perfect. Beets keeping it in the vegtable drawer in the kitchen!

I love this little 'fridge but be advised it draws /a lot/ of power.

I've had my fridge for a month now. I keep mine at my office so i don't have to cram my lunch into the crowded 'community/breakroom' fridge. Its also nice to keep sodas/water/salad dressing/etc. Since I can now bring such item from home more easily, I find myself visiting the local delis/restaurants far less often- which saves me money and calories.So about the fridge. It works fine. I haven't used the freezer, so I can't comment on that feature. However, the fridge does a fine job keeping stuff cool. I set the temperature at a medium setting, and it keeps my drinks ice cold, without inadvertently freezing anything.It fits nicely below my desk, about 2 feet from where I sit. Even at such close range, I don't find the noise bothersome. Its actually barely noticeable. My cubicle neighbor didn't even notice I had a fridge until she physically saw it, weeks after purchase.There is one DOWNSIDE to the fridge, that might also be an upside. The fridge is very lightweight. It was easily carried from my car into the office. However, I have to 'think' that the light wieght comes at the cost of less insulation and less efficiency. The compressor does seem to cycle on somewhat frequently. The little, yellow EPA card that it came with estmated it would cost $35yr to operate the product. I have no idea if thats true or not.But to be honest, if I were using this fridge at my house, say, behind a bar....I might opt to buy something bigger/beefier since portability would not likely be an issue. Larger units could be had for less than $150. But for an office, this igloo is ideal for me. The size/weight might come in handy when I move cubicles/offices/etc.

I purchased this item 5 months ago, and it recently stopped working. Igloo says it has a 1-year warranty, but they don't tell you that you are responsible for shipping any non-working item to their warehouse in IL, as well as paying for shipping insurance on the unit. It is almost just as expensive as buying another fridge. What horrible customer service, and cheaply made - it doesn't even last 6 months. Don't waste your money.
