Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Micro Cool Mini Fridge
Customer Review: If they can go to the moon...
Summary: 1 Stars
...why can't a handicapped lady get a cold drink in the middle of the night?? I've had this and several other similar models of the same unit, and they're more trouble than they're worth. It's very noisy, and not a "white noise" kind of noise...more of an irritating whining. Biggest problem is that they break...and fast. The longest I've had one is just over a year. The cord gets alarmingly warm or it just stops working, or forgets what mode it was set, heating cold drinks and melting cheese sticks. I wish I could find a decent little fridge for my bedtable, but this and similar appearing units are a bust. They may even all be manufactured by the same cheap cheap company. I will continue to look for a mini fridge, but will never get another one that looks like this. They're essentially all the same, and none of them have worked for me.
For now I use a vacuum insulated Thermos for my nighttime thirst quenching! It keeps water/juice cold for a good 6-8 hours and I don't have to worry about the room catching fire!
Customer Review: May just be the adaptor, not the fridge
Summary: 4 Stars
Cute little thing and kept my already cold foods nice and cold for lunch, but died after a month. Folks were stealing lunches out of our common fridge, so thought this would help. Kept it under the desk. It's like the fan tries to start very slowly and then just shuts off. Was under the desk with good airflow there because the fan was a bit noisy. Saw another review that the adaptor for the car works. Plugged it in there and the fridge appears to be fine. So....going to get a new adaptor (sold farther down on this Amazon page) and see what happens. Don't trash the fridge without checking the adaptor first.Customer Review: Poor reviews justified

I agree with other shoppers that the mini fridge is noisy.
There is no thermostat so the temperature cannot be controlled.
It does get very cold in 30 minutes, below freezing.
However, if you unplug it it gets warm in 30 minutes.
I wanted this to store my medicines, but cannot take the risk that it will
freeze them.
Made in China, claims to have UL approval.
I returned it. The only way to return it is by the post office, $8.75!
Expensive lesson.
Customer Review: Cheap product badly made.
Summary: 1 Stars
I had previously used a similar but a different personal fridge in a shared office that had been working well for many years and so wanted one of my own. I read all the reviews and thought that it was mere bad luck and that "it would not happen to me", but as reported by others, the product works fine for a month or so then suddenly quits for no apparent reason and becomes a useless piece of junk. Beware of this particular brand and product. Get a better quality elsewhere.Customer Review: I was skeptical...

I had heard that these "micro fridges" really didn't keep food cool, but I really needed something for my snacks at work, since food items often disappear from the community refrigerator. The price was great, and I have to say I am really pleased with this product. It's a little loud (sounds like you're running a fan on low) but you get used to that. It keeps all of my food cold. It's been great to keep me on track eating healthier snacks that I bring from home.
