midea WHD-113FB1 Full-Size Double Reversible Door Refrigerator and Freezer, 3.1 Cubic Feet, Black

CUSTOMER REVIEW



I recently started working from home and have my office upstairs. This is great for drinks and snacks. I love that the freezer has a separate door. It's not frost free, but they do include a little ice scraper to help when defrosting is needed. After a few weeks, there is no frost yet. I've had a one door type at work before and the freezer constantly froze from using the door for the fridge area.

CUSTOMER REVIEW



I was reluctant to order this at first due to a lot of comments around the packaging of the unit and them showing up with dents and scratches. When the unit arrived the outside parcel was a bit torn. However the seller must have taken the feedback that was given and made some changes as my unit was in perfect condition without a single scratch or dent. It was double boxed. The OEM box has the unit inside with a Styrofoam shell. Then the EOM box was lined with stiff cardboard corners and wrapped in Styrofoam around that and then placed in an additional box. Only the otter box had a slight tear. Given the weight of the unit it was expected. Don't hesitate to order this unit as I'm certain it will show up in perfect condition if we were to order an additional one.



The unit itself is made of quality materials. I placed a digital thermometer inside the unit and it holds a sold 37 degrees inside. Keep in mind this is a minifridge and not a cooler. A major difference. The only complaint I have about the unit is that we have it downstairs behind our bar. Not in the bar but behind it sitting on the carpet. When placed on the carpet the door would drag the carpet and after our first basement break in party the door was left slightly open a few times because the door was difficult to shut. I tried to adjust the feet to raise the unit up but was unable to do so because the legs are not adjustable. I happen to have an extra 18X18 tile from the bathroom. I sat the unit on top of the tile and it solved the problem. The door open and shuts perfectly. Keep in mind we do not have shag carpet either. It is a medium density stainmaster carpet with standard stainmaster padding. If you plan to place this in a carpeted area do yourself a favor and go purchase an 18X18 tile.



As others have mentioned the shelves don't hold cans the best when you go to fill it as some tip from side to side when placed vertical. I removed the second from the bottom shelf to hold 4-5Liter kegs. I can hold exactly a case of beer in the bottom section which is not as deep as the others since the compressor housing is in the way. Which leaves me with the top full shelf and the very top shelf that holds them in a horizontal fashion. The horizontal shelf holds a 12 pack 6 on each side. Without the removal of a shelf this unit will not accommodate 16oz water bottles or beer bottles placed vertically. These will need to be placed on their sides unless you remove a shelf.



Overall I would give this fridge a 5 out of 5 or 10 out of 10. It servers our purposes perfectly and it looks great, and it was at a great price point. If I had to make a couple of changes or a wish list. I wish it used an LED bulb for that newer look. Additionally, I wish the light could be turned on when the door was shut since it is a glass face to showcase the drinks inside. UPDATE: Finds out there is a switch inside on the side of the light to turn it on. Check that off the lsit! Other than that it's the perfect height and the top is being used to hold our EdgeStar 5Liter Kegerator. Which places the tap at the perfect height and I am 5'10".



All in all don't hesitate to purchase this unit as I searched for several weeks and really did my homework before ordering a mini fridge for our bar when we finished the basement. I assure you that you will not find a better product at this price point.



UPDATE: Over a year later this thing is still ice cold and no issues. Look no furhter, the perfect minifridge holds true!!!

CUSTOMER REVIEW



This is a great little refrigerator.

Pros:

Lots of room. I like this fridge because there is no soda can dispenser. I hate those because I do not drink soda.

Great price! (Watch out for the shipping though)

Cools very quickly.

It comes with a drip tray.

The "legs" of the fridge are movable for correct balance!!



Cons:

A little on the noisy side. To me it's pretty quiet, but if you want a fridge that you cannot hear at all, this is not for you.

The freezer section is so tiny do not expect to put anything other than a small ice tray in it.



Biggest problem:

The shippers dinted the heck out of the side. I didn't return it because that would have been a major hassle and expense. It still worked even with that boo boo, so overall I am pleased.



This is a great fridge for a bedroom, office, or just for extra storage. Just don't expect to get use out of the freezer.

My husband LOVES his new fridge. His friend/drummer saw it and asked, "Nice, but what did you need another amp for?" My husband's response? "To keep the beers cold!" He opened it up and pulled out a cold beer. Everyone was surprised, amazed and jealous!!!!

CUSTOMER REVIEW



I just got this fridge (I bought it through home depot), and love it so far! The door in door feature is really nice, and the space is utilized sooooo much better than my old side by side model that this replaced. Perfect example, I bought a papa murphy's take n bake pizza and it slid right in. In my old fridge first I'd have to play a game of tetris moving things around before I could even think of wedging a pizza in there.



minor complaint, the bottom two levels in the door-in-door are just *barely* large enough for the height of a 2 liter of soda. Technically they fit, but the caps just brush the bottom of the next level so you have to angle it a bit when taking them in/out. Gallon of milk, and all the other stuff I put in there for easy access fits really nicely so I didn't detract a star for such a minor thing.



I have the one with the 2 freezer drawers. When I was looking at the different models I liked it better than having 1 freezer drawer and then a plastic drawer that slides out on top instead, but if this isn't a huge feature for you the 1 freezer drawer model is quite a bit cheaper.



I'll update in a few months and see how it's holding up.
