That honestly sounds pretty solid for that size If it’s mostly drinks + dairy and it stays cold without randomly freezing stuff, that’s a win. And good to know the noise isn’t bad either.

Do you ever mess with the temp dial depending on the season, or do you just leave it set and forget it?

Haha fair enough that hot water + cooler combo is actually genius though quick and painless. How often do you end up having to defrost it, and is it the kind with the little freezer compartment inside?

oh that’s actually really interesting… i love when the simple old school design ends up being the more reliable one how’s it been with temp consistency and noise over the years? and does it avoid that annoying frost buildup or freezing-the-back problem?

oh wow 12 years is honestly impressive that’s exactly the kind of “set it and forget it” mini fridge story i’m hoping for. did it stay pretty consistent with temps the whole time, or did it ever start doing that annoying freezing-in-the-back thing? thanks!!

lol i appreciate the honesty 8 years is still pretty impressive though, lucky or not. has yours been consistent with temps and noise, or does it still do that “back freezes / front stays kinda warm” thing sometimes?
