I was extremely surprised about how good this little fridge is. I went to it after it had been on for 6/7 hours and it didn't feel that cold. I did however put a couple of cans of coke in and they came out really cold.Its compact, light weight and most importantly it isnt noisy.A really really good gizmo. Would definitely recommend!!

Lovely little mini fridge. I purchased it to store my skincare products in my bedroom. It is quite small but just about holds everything after removing the shelf. I bought it on offer for £29.99 and I feel like even that is £10 overpriced, but it truly is so quiet that it makes up for the price. I am a light sleeper, even the sound of a fan bothers me, but this fridge is hardly audible.

I absolutely love my 'mini fridge'! I only wish I had bought one sooner. It keeps my skincare products beautifully cool and they are so refreshing to use. Best results are with items such as toners, serums and eye lotions kept in glass bottles. Also good for eye-wipes and de-puffing, cooling, eye-rollers. There is a moderate amount of space in the unit and small bottles and containers work best - unless the top shelf is removed. This will be great for cooling facial mists and anti-allergy eye sprays in the summer. White is the perfect shade for a light bedroom, as it blends easily with the decor. There is a small 'hum' from the cooler, but it is hardly noticeable. Highly recommended!

Majority of the time I am bed bound due to a terminal illness. This is compact whilst plenty big enough to keep a small 1 pint milk carton. Very quiet running and keeps my milk cold, maybe a few naughty chocolate bars as well. Pleased.

Functionally this mini fridge works as far as keeping drinks and snacks cool goes but I wish it was more sturdy and had a bit more weight to it. It's not easy to use due to its slippy/slidy nature. Opening and closing the door requires 2 hands to stop it from sliding around, especially on a surface with not a lot of grip.It's not terrible value for money but could be good with more grip and weight to keep it grounded.I've only used it for cooling but theres no reason to believe it'll be any worse with keeping drinks and snacks warm.All I use it for is keeping a pint of milk cool (for my beloved tea) and a chocolate bar or two. There's not a lot of room left after that to store anything else. I knew that before purchasing so I can't mark it down for that. If I ever have to replace it I'll choose something double the size. Hopefully that will also mean extra stability and grip.

Works well, not too noisy. Fits quite abit in there! Very happy with this purchase

When I received the item I had high hopes. I was happy with the size, as it's ideal for medication, insulin and other bits inside my bedroom. The noise is not too bad and I like the humming of the fan to help me sleep.Before I trusted it with my medication I left it running for 36 hours to test the temperature. All good for that time. The temperature was measured with a medical grade thermostat. Temperature was around 2 to 4°c which is perfect.Then on the third day the temperature reached subzero which is not great. Then for a week it remained around 6 and 7°c but since it's been increasing 1 degree a day.Today the temperature was higher inside de fridge at 17°C than outside 10°c so clearly this item is not made to last.I don't believe this item is made to be on all the time, neither to be stopped and starting many times.I'm disappointed with the way this brand created this item, with an A+ energy rating but with a product that looks and feels cheap and clearly faulty.Also Amazon sent me a used item which I didn't mind of and was aware but I'm not happy that they just wrapped it up and sell it again knowing that item is flawed.I'll just have to buy another one, this time new but ultimately it's better to pay a bit more and get a proper countertop fridge.

Being in a shared room of two, to store and chill few items personally of me, this product serves me well.After many months of enquiry and searching, i bought this product from amazon. Even milk bottle can be kept chilled for until its expiry.Keeping bananas,milk,chocolates,juices and milk drinks since i bought it. Keeps these items very chilled.The fan produces only a minor sound thats not at all audible unless we project our ears to it. Very well recommended.

This Russell Hobbs mini fridge was a Christmas present for my daughter and it’s absolutely perfect for her bedroom. It’s a great size — ideal for keeping a couple of juice cartons, bottles of water, and even some chocolate for her and her friends.It looks really cute, runs quietly, and is easy for her to use. She loves having her own little space to keep snacks and drinks, and it’s been a fun way to encourage a bit of independence.A great bonus is that it comes with a handy car charger, so it can be plugged in during road trips — perfect for keeping drinks cool while travelling.Really happy with this purchase and would definitely recommend it.

This is a good quality mini fridge. It keeps items cold as expected and performs reliably for everyday use.Operation is consistently quiet, with no noise issues during use.The only limitation is cooling performance, which is around 18–22°C below ambient temperature. A lower cooling range would improve the product.Overall, it is a solid and practical device.

Like- compact, stylish, very quiet. Keeps milk cool. Lightweight and comes with main and car charger power leads.Dislike - 1l milk will not fit, having to buy smaller cartons which is fine. Using a uk-Au adapter as comes with UK plug.

Very convenient
