Great, Little, Mini Fridge!
This mini fridge is to the size that is mentioned, and can hold as many bottles as stated; I use it for slightly larger cans, and it can fit three normal sized cans and keep them cool throughout the day🙂Is it very easy to use, and just requires a simple plug in and turn on; it comes with all the necessities, and can even be used in a vehicle! It is also extremely lightweight, so perfect for those who just want a simple, compact, mini fridge for all different purposes🙂I have yet to clean it, but it seems easy enough to clean! Definitely worth the money!

Keeps medicine injections cold, milk, etc, No need for refrigerators in hotel rooms
Great little fridge, I like that it has a latch to open and close. there is enough room for many short items. This is great for keeping injection medicines. No need to book hotels with refrigerators. Keeps very cold, no problems

Attractive and well made very small
Attractive and looks to be well made and light to pick up and carry. Size wise very small so mine took about 8 of those little ginger shots bottles and one additional small wrap. Sits nice on the desk and quieter than a small fan. Took about 3 hours to get cold. Good for the home office to save u getting up but probably only going to use in summer months

Great Mini Fridge for Bedroom
I've been using the Russell Hobbs Mini Fridge in my bedroom to keep breastmilk cool and ready for night feeds, and it's been a game-changer. The fridge is the perfect size – compact enough to fit neatly on a bedside table, but still holds several bottles. It comes with lots of adaptors, including for both mains and car use, which makes it really versatile.The fridge does exactly what I need it to, keeping milk at the right temperature without taking up too much space. The only downside is the green light on the back, which is surprisingly bright at night. I've had to cover it to stop it from disturbing my sleep – a small fix for an otherwise great little fridge.If you're looking for a convenient way to keep milk or snacks close by, especially for night feeds, I'd definitely recommend this fridge.

There is small and quite noisy
It is really small. I had expected it to be small but not miniature. It’s only taken four very small water bottles and 2 finger KitKat. It is also really loud so it won’t be any good for a bedroom if you’re gonna sleep in there and it’s pretty it looks nice and it was a reasonable price but don’t expect that you can get lots of stuff in it. It is good for the job I wanted but much noisier than I thought but very pretty.

Premature failure due to temperature cutoff switch
Worked well, (but was quite small) for 21 months. Some fan noise which was not unexpected. Only used a few times a year when we travelled to hold a pint of milk and other small chilled food items in hotel rooms. Plugged it in on Sunday morning a couple of hours before we departed on a short trip and it was as dead as a dodo via AC and DC power. Very unhelpful. Fuses are intact, power present at the ends of each cable, so this is an internal failure. 12 month warranty is all well and good but these things should be lasting MUCH longer before they head to landfill and frankly - for its limited usage, dying so soon makes it expensive.So, I took it apart and investigated what was wrong. DC power enters directly to the PCB screwed to the back of the switch, or indirectly from the AC power supply above the heatsink. The positive side of this passes to what looks like a temperature cut off switch attached to the side of the piezo cooler (under the heatsink, not shown) on one of the yellow wires. This component has failed - bypassing it (which I would not recommend) restores power and functionality to the cooler. Note, this component is present for good reason, do not disassemble or bypass anything electrical unless you are competent to do so and fully understand the risks.Dear Rusty Hobbs. A great many of your customers for this product are complaining about premature failure. I wouldn't mind betting most of these failures have the same root cause and I suspect you already know about this failing component. Now everyone else knows too. This shouldn't be happening and certainly not at your customers cost and inconvenience. Lessons to learn. 1) Don't annoy an engineer. 2) Design your products better and with better quality components.
