Product Information

When it comes down to overall cost, you may also need to take energy consumption into account when buying your mini fridge. The higher the efficiency, the more money you save in the long run – important if you plan to keep it plugged in all the time, and obviously better for the planet. What features do I need?

When it comes to mini fridges, there are a few installation types you can choose from. The right one for you depends on where you're planning to install it, and whether that spot will be its permanent or temporary residence. There's a freestanding mini fridge, which can be installed in any spot in your home with the correct outlet and is the most traditional style of mini fridge. There's also a built-in mini fridge—otherwise known as an "under-counter fridge"—which should seamlessly blend in with your kitchen cabinets or integrate with your kitchen island layout. As far as the inside goes, it comes with an adjustable wire shelves along with wire door compartments, so whether you're storing food containers, beverages, or skincare, you'll have options. The freezer compartment is small, at just 0.25 cubic feet, so don't plan on using it for ice cream cakes or family-sized lasagnas. A perfectly sized ice cube tray is included, so making ice will be a cinch. The capacity of a mini fridge is often measured in cubic feet. If the mini fridge is dedicated to storing beverages, then it may also be measured in the number of Bordeaux-style wine bottles and cans you can fit inside. The larger the capacity of your fridge, the more you can store at one time. The average hovers between 3 and 4.5 cubic feet. Some countertop models will have just 0.5 cubic feet of space, while high-capacity models can reach 6 cubic feet and store the weekly groceries of two people. Review Board Member Johnathan Brewer says, if you're selecting a mini fridge to fit inside a specific compartment (such as within a cabinet space), you should verify the actual true dimension of the fridge. That includes the open door and will help you make sure the appliance fits in the desired space before purchasing or installing. It can be used with a standard electrical plug, and it comes with a car adapter, and it's USB-compatible, making it a great choice for travel. Buyers also report that it's quiet enough to use at work, too, although some note issues with using it long-term, such as temperature fluctuations and water collecting inside.

Note, this fridge does not include a freezer, but with the flip of a switch it can be used as a warmer. (You know that dip you want to bring to the big game watch party? You're covered!) It does have limitations when it comes to cooling. You can count on 32 degrees cooler than the room (or outside) temperature, so plan accordingly if you live in a hot climate or anticipate lots of temperature fluctuations in your future. Two removable shelves allow for greater customisability, depending on what you wish to store, and the small icebox is a fantastic bonus. It also offers anti-bacterial protection, keeping your perishables safe, and has an A* energy rating. With its ample 70l capacity, this mini fridge from iceQ offers plenty of space for a reasonable price. Door storage is a big plus here, and at 63cm the fridge is more than tall enough for you to store wine or milk in this compartment along with anything else you wish. It’s also no deeper than it needs to be, which means that the rest of the fridge space can be fully utilised.

Of course, if you’re looking for a mini fridge that can travel with you, smaller is better. While you have to keep an eye out for models that require power leads to be bought separately, a travel fridge for the car is ideal for camping trips or long drives.

Highest Rated in Fridges

Buyers also rave about its quiet operation, and we're glad to see that it's Energy Star certified, too. One potential downside is that you'll need to defrost it manually, but we see that as a (small!) price to pay. We could see this model in a bedroom, dorm room, or game room, or even an office where it makes sense to have a mini fridge that serves as both form and function. On the other hand, if you go with a countertop or portable style of mini fridge, you can expect a shorter lifespan. (That often coincides with the smaller price tag.) Reports usually put them at one to two years before users start noticing changes in functionality. The fridge's door also features a can dispenser. However, it doesn't take over the entire door and is designed with angled slots for easily grabbing a soda or seltzer. The door is also reversible, meaning you can install the hinges to open the door to the left or right. If you're installing this mini fridge in a dorm room or tight space where you don't know the layout yet, this feature is very handy, because you can easily change the orientation as needed. An integrated door handle also makes this piece of the fridge more space-conscious, while a freestanding design gives it added flexibility.
