Frigidaire EFR176 1.6 cu. ft. Retro Bar Fridge with Side Bottle Opener (Moonbeam)

Absolutely thrilled with my purchase of the Frigidaire EFR176-BLUE 1.6 cu ft Blue Retro Fridge! This little gem has truly transformed my 12-year-old daughter's bedroom into her own cozy sanctuary. First and foremost, the retro design is simply adorable. The vibrant blue color adds a fun and playful touch to her room, instantly brightening up the space. It's like a blast from the past with a modern twist, and it's exactly what we were looking for to complement her decor. Size-wise, it's just right. Compact enough to fit perfectly in a corner of her room without taking up too much space, yet spacious enough inside to hold all her favorite snacks and drinks Now she has easy access to her goodies whenever she wants without having to trek to the kitchen. Functionality-wise, this fridge is a winner. It keeps everything perfectly chilled, just as it should. The adjustable thermostat is a handy feature, allowing us to customize the temperature to suit her preferences. Plus, the removable shelf makes it easy to organize items and keep everything neat and tidy. The quiet operation is another big plus. I was initially concerned about any potential noise disrupting her sleep, but I'm happy to report that this fridge is virtually silent. It hums along in the background without causing any disturbance whatsoever, ensuring she gets a peaceful night's rest. Overall, I couldn't be happier with the Frigidaire EFR176-BLUE. It's cute, functional, and adds a touch of retro charm to my daughter's room. It's been a hit with her and has quickly become one of her favorite features of her space. If you're looking for a stylish and practical mini-fridge for a bedroom or small space, look no further!

Dimensions were exact to specifications. I had to measure different angles exactly due to metal supports on my shelf and there was no issue with my measurements and fridge size. Aesthetically great for me, blue enthusiast, and slight retro look. Looks like the top half to a fridge. Very hot summer so needed cool drinks, cools very well even at a low setting. Cold setting 2 of 5 was too cool for my needs and did make the fridge activate too often during the 95f+ days. Cold dialed to around 1.25 and water comes out refreshingly cold. Bottle opener works ok, would recommend getting a magnet bottle opener instead as the built im one does not grip well consistently for me. Fridges activates for me every 10-30m depending on room temp. Current temps outside have been 90-100 since installation and my room temp is several degrees higher due to having a closed door and a hot computer. AC in my house does not fully work and the house averages around 76-80 degrees so the room is understandably a lot hotter than an ideal room for a mini fridge. Sound is not loud for me and I do sleep fine with it coming on, I have no issues with white noise like fans and AC vents for context. It is noticeable but not unpleasant. Door handle was a struggle to get on maybe due to bad plastic tolerances and it feels very cheap but it did mot break when I got it on finally and is sturdy in use since installation. Door seal sticks well and insulates very well. Only left it slightly open once when attempting to close it and noticed it was activating too long and pushed fully shut. Human error.

I really love this retro fridge for my classroom. It's very cool looking. I don't need a lot of room, so it's fine for my bottles of water and my lunch. It wouldn't really hold much more than that. It does keep everything very nice and cold without freezing things unnecessarily. The only wonky thing about it is the handle. I don't know if it's supposed to click into place and be used, or if it's just decorative. Mine didn't click all the way in, and will fall off if your pull it too hard (basically at all). It's not a deal breaker because this fridge is otherwise exactly what I wanted.

I have zero complaints with this little refrigerator. after reading multiple reviews that the units were being received with damage incurred during shipment I opened the package with great trepidation but then was very happy when I found completely pristine refrigerator. The size is perfect for my use, I'm using it to hold my lunches and snacks at work it matches the company color scheme and fits perfectly on my desk. upon plugging it in it cooled down very quickly. My only real disappointment was I assumed that it came with an ice tray but after reviewing the listing on Amazon I realized that was just my assumption and was not listed anywhere. I also was concerned because several people mention that it was louder than they expected, well when you're in a completely silent room you can hear the compressor but it's not oppressive even in a normally silent room it only registers at 36 decibels when using a sound meter. like right now I am sitting a foot and a half away from it, I know that the compressor is running because I can feel a slight vibration in my desk however the sound of the air conditioning high above me completely drowns out the slight sound of the compressor. one off label feature of this refrigerator which I'm going to find useful is that the exterior left and right side panels become warm to the touch as I assume that's the areas that the freon releases the heat and this office oftentimes is between 68° and 72° and my hands freeze well now I have a hand warmer that also keeps my lunches cool lol.

Got this initially because I had a crazy roommate who stored rotting food in the fridge and would eat my stuff. Moved out into my own place and now it’s a lovely living room drink fridge! Stays cool, very quiet, beautiful color, sturdy (it’s survived four moves so very portable), fits a 12pack of any canned drink in the main compartment and a six pack of bottled drinks on the door.

Okay, let's start with the positives... This mini fridge is so unbelievably cute! I wanted a fridge to use mainly for my skincare products but I wanted one that was bigger than a typical skincare fridge, had a freezer, looked cute, and could also hold a few beverages to keep in my beauty room. I fell in love with the idea of a retro-style mini fridge and thought this one would be perfect. I saw a few reviews that mentioned it arriving damaged but figured I'd take a chance because shipping companies damage things occasionally so I didn't think that meant there was a problem with the actual product. HOWEVER, when this arrived, it was very clear that the damage was NOT from the shipping process but from the way it was packaged. The fridge was in an appliance box where the bottom was a piece of styrofoam and then a box was slid down overtop (no cardboard was under the styrofoam, and the whole thing was strapped together. Because there was no support under the styrofoam bottom, the strap crushed the styrofoam and crumpled the bottom of the fridge door to the point that it interfered with the seal. Additionally, there were dents on 3 other sides of the fridge, even though there was no damage to the box in those areas. Then, when I contacted amazon for a return and they wanted me to keep and use the fridge and receive a partial refund for the "cosmetic damage". I had to push for a full refund and then figure out a way to package this fridge back up without a machine to strap it shut so I could return it. Anyway, if you see the number of reviews claiming this item arrived damaged, BELIEVE THEM! I'm so disappointed that a company like Frigidaire doesn't have appropriate packaging for this item. It would have been exactly what I was looking for and looked so cute in my beauty room if they would have just packaged it in a way that would have protected it instead of damaging it.

As others have stated, my fridge also arrived with a minor dent and scuff. At first glance it isn’t obvious, but once I noticed, it made me question if the unit was truly new. After reading other reviews, it seems this isn’t uncommon. On top of that, one of the two rubber feet actually fell out of the box as if it was never attached. I never did find a screw rolling around, and thankfully since I keep it on a shelf it isn’t needed — but it’s another sign of poor attention to detail. The fridge/freezer does work as it should, which is the most important thing for me right now. Still, it’s disappointing to pay for a “new” product that doesn’t arrive in pristine condition and with all parts properly secured. Tip for buyers: check your unit carefully on arrival for cosmetic flaws or loose parts.

I use this in my office to hold beverages. It’s perfect, quiet, and a cute retro design. I love that it comes in pink since that’s my whole office design. Keeps my drinks plenty cold. It’s compact enough but also not too tiny and can hold quite a bit. I’m sure it will last for years to come.
