Shelves I had to fiddle around with to get it right, and the light isn’t great so we don’t bother to switch it on.
But other than that we love it keeps drinks perfectly cold, especially in this weather.
My main issue is that the instructions provided are poor, very poor, and they detail how you SHOULD be able to change the orientation of the door so that it can open left-to-right or right-to-left and this is essentially impossible. You are supposed to remove the plastic covering over the hinge which I was unable to do (and scratched the paint in attempting to do so) and then when I tried any form of non-abrasive item to do it, they snapped. This is the only let down as I would have liked to change this orientation but overall the fridge does exactly what it says and if the option wasn't there to have changed the door, it would have received 5*.
It can be noisy but does the job
Only has 3 shelves but think these are sufficient and can be arranged to get a selection of large/small cans, beer bottles and a few bottles of wine flat at the top. It takes normal wine & champagne bottle up to about 310mm, but long neck bottles (320+) foul the door so would have to twist a little. It comes with door opening on the left but I switched to RHS easily without any issue realigning to he door sill.
In terms of performance this claims to go down to 2℃ which is lower than some on the market and one of the reasons selected, and with noise level of 40db. Well having tested over a about week observations are: With thermostat setting on 5-6 is does indeed get the central area temp down to 1-2℃ (air temp) but obviously takes quite a time from start up (no quick freeze option) and depending on how full it is.
However as you'd expect the temperature is not uniform and with about 1-2℃ mid-shelf the drinks at the bottom were 2-3℃, just slightly higher on mid-shelf and about 5-6℃ top shelf (wine). This covers the range for my use, with beers stacked lower down and wine at top, and doubt you'd get much better performance for a unit of this price.
On the noise level, this is a bit of a disappointment. It does run at about 39/40db (approx. 5mins) until the compressor cuts in with quite a noticeable click/pop sound then runs at 45/46db (approx. 2mins) with a noticeable hum, this as a continuous cycle. So depending on where you're planning to put it (mine is next to a quite computer desk area used regularly) you may find it intrusive, the switching of the compressor can be heard across a room. This is a shame and if mine wasn't for occasional use would have been an issue. One other minor niggle is that the interior light is only manually switched rather than on door opening.
Overall I think I'd still recommend it and definitely good value for the capacity, but would have been happier to pay a little more for a quieter switching unit.
