Customer Reviews

Nice, but limited
I ordered this unit for work, so I wouldn't have to keep buying soft drinks from the vending machine. It does work in that capacity, but there are some annoyances with it, and some limitations.

First I'll start off with the positives. It's lightweight, and it's really attractive. It also does cool things pretty well. I can't comment on warming things up, because I haven't tried it.

The negative part is it is quite large for what it can hold. And more than that, the insides don't hold temperature very well at all after you power it down. It warms up way too fast. Also, unlike a compressor based refrigeration unit, this thing is on all the time. Lastly, you are only supposed to run this for 48 hours consecutively, after which time you need to power if off for one hour. This is not stated in the description, but is an annoyance.

So, overall, it's not bad, because it does keep things quite cold, and you can put most things in it (2 liter bottles you have slant a little). Particularly at work, it can save you money, and give you a much better selection than the vending machine since you can bring in whatever you want. You will also get comments on how beautiful it is; it's that attractive. Just be aware of its imperfections so you won't be disappointed.

Coca Cola Can Fridge
After reading the instructions that came with the fridge it said that I had to unplug it after 48 hours and I was looking for something that could be used like a regular fridge :(

Bad Electrical Design; Buy the Pepsi Can Instead
I bought two of these and as an electrical engineer I can attest that the circuit board inside the can is cheap and poorly designed; the cord heats up after a while. This mini-fridge is defintely a fire hazard. If you buy this, you should invest in a timer to shut the unit down for an hour or two per day, maybe 2AM to 4AM.

FYI:
I also bought the Pepsi Can fridge and it is a beast. I never unplug the unit and it has been running for 6+ months now. It is a little smaller than the Coke can (which is great) and it does not have an ugly AC/DC converter brick (not shown) hanging from it like the Coke can does. The Pepsi can's power is converted internally; only a cord is exposed and not any ugly power brick.

Update: The second Coke Frigde died in March (less than 4 month lifespan) and the Pepsi Fridge eventually died in late July of 2009 (7 month lifespan).
