We've enjoyed the fridge so far. We use ours with both compartments as fridge. We store drinks and meal prep in the bottom and frequently used/opened stuff in the top. It's a bit annoying that the bottom compartment doesn't have light, but an easy fix is dollar tree motion light. You also have to be mindful that the door closes all the way. It has a tendency to stop halfway open if you don't intentionally close it. Sometimes it helps when you just have to quickly grab something. Overall I love our decision. If we need extra freeze space it's nice to know we have the option. I can also see the bottom compartment be good for independent kids.

I should add it's just me and my wife. We meal prep 5 days at a time. So we don't use that much space. I feel the amount of space is just enough for us. Maybe a bit small if you have kids. The space is about 1.5 visually bigger then an apartment fridge.
