New Compact Cuisinart Refrigerator

[Chetlaham]

Decided to buy one of these for their simplicity and as a better than nothing backup. When I saw how stylish it was on the outside, how charming it was on the inside, it was love as first sight. Like a mini rendition of a full size refrigerator.

This fridge is nothing more than the basics- a tube wrapping around inside freezer and fridge as the evap coil, a tube wrapping around underneath the exterior wrapper, a liquid drier, a capillary tube, and a single stage compressor. Start PTC, thermostat, door switch and light bulb for the electrical. Nothing else that can go wrong. No evap fan to fail, no condenser to get clogged up with dust, no defrost heater to fail.

Only down side is the 1.09oz for R600 and the none name brand somewhat noisy compressor, but other than that its a good start. I might by a larger version of this, I like it.

Speaking of Garage, how well would this work with temperature fluctuation found in unconditioned garages?

And, good news, about 3 hours in and its down to 35*F. Great so far. I hope the fresh food section can maintain a steady temp in between cycles. I've heard a lot of reviews where mini and compact fridge will fluctuate temps to much even with a good thermal load like many cans of soda.

I wish they made a full size version of this fridge.
