Wonderful well working product
This is an excellent little cooler. I get frustrated reading some other reviews stating that there is no temperature control or the product is too small. Demensions are available to check before the purchase so not sure what is the confusion? 😊 . If someone can not find the temperature control ? They should not be allowed to use this product. The temperature is absolutely great, really cool in fact as cool as my regular fridge. The noise is so minimal it is very impressive. Door shelf comfortably holds 3 large 500ml cans. It is simply a well presented mini fridge. I will highly recommend this product with no hesitation

A SUPER COOL FRIDGE!!!
A neat little fridge, compact design, with a pleasing satin black finish. Purchased as a gift for a family member for home and university campus use, this ticks all the boxes. (After research we were wary of the smaller drinks coolers/food warmers for their limited use). Extremely quiet when running. I would say wisper quiet and the kind of low level background noise that you would become accustomed to, even if you noticed it at first. A bit like the ticking of a clock, where you only notice it when it's stopped! Tested overnight, (placed a feezer thermeometer at the back of the shelf) where it had dropped the temperature to 5 degrees C after 1 hour. 2/3 hours later this had dropped to Minus 1 degree C. The thermostat had been set to its lowest, so more than efficient for a controlled internal temperature for ice cold drinks and snacks. Surprisingly roomy inside, and the interior light a bonus. You can choose to extend the 1 year warranty to 2 years FOC with the registration form enclosed. All said and done, very satisfied with its purchase.

Great fridge, keeps products inside cold.
First impressions seem good, fridge keeps products inside nice and cold. There is a constant “hmmmm” sound produced by the fan that I’ve recorded to be around 38db, so as advertised. My fridge is placed in an office with minimal furniture with is making the sound become more marsh as the sound waves are bouncing off all floors and walls - therefor will get some acoustic foam to hopefully resolve this issue and dampen the sound.

Chilled when the mercury rises
I was after a cooler for a few cans of beer and a bottle or two of wine. A summer go-to. Had a look at several options and their reviews and decided that RH was best value, well made and roomy for its type. Capacity? Well if you load it thoughtfully, it takes 2 bottles of wine (including 1 sparkling with a longer cork), 7x 440 ml tinnies (3 in the door shelf) and 1 x 500 ml bottle of water. Ok, my parties may not be exciting but that is what was wanted and you don't need to max the dial to get chilled drinks. Smart, black cabinet looks to be nailed together pretty well and it sits discreetly in my utility room. Good buy I reckon

Check the Thermostat Setting before thinking its not cold enough
If you are like me and don't actually read the manual and 'guess' at the thermostat when it says 'MAX' that it means the fridge will be working at its maximum efficiency and power level.....then you will be wrong! MAX actually means the warmest setting, ok that must seems obvious after reading this review but to make it the coldest it needs to be moved to LOW! Also the gauge has MAX at the far left and LOW at the far right, which in normal terms if you were thinking of it like a thermostat in your house turning it clockwise would make things warmer and turning it DOWN would make it colder - not the case! I've rated the fridge 5 star but the temperature control as 1 star as it is definitely not clear - use snowflakes or something or even numbers - manual says 5-15 degrees so why not have this written on the back of the fridge, thats far more sensible than MAX and LOW. I would have loved to be in the product design meeting or have seen the focus group when they were introduced to the fridge (i bet this didn't happen!) A decent size fridge, pretty quiet although can still hear it over my computer most of the time, the shelf got removed straight away, its pointless and the door bin can't really fit that much in. It is what it is, but once you get the settings correct it does what it says on the tin - keeps small things cold!

Excellent Cooler Mini fridge
I have had this now for a month and very happy with it. My previous cooler broke suddenly and thought I’d try this one. The size is excellent not too big and great for an upstairs bedroom. There is some slight noise which seems to get quieter when the temperature reaches the setting. I have placed a fridge thermometer and even on the middle setting it remains within the fridge guide of 5 degrees so well capable of storing drinks and actual fridge type food. I use it for drinks and it holds at least 13 x 500mls Pepsi bottles in main area and 4 smaller 250mls in door. This obviously requires removing the tray. There is a light inside which is nice but may not last as it stays on all the time. The only thing I would have liked is if the door shelf was also removable . I would class this as a mini fridge without a freezer and love it. Well recommended.

Sturdy, compressor & radiator hidden, but temperature dial reversed
What you see is what you get - a metal black box. The backside has the components hidden and the door has no handle sticking out, making for a refined design. Cools quickly, holds temperature with <1°C fluctuations in a 16-30°C environment. Well made. What's a bit unusual about this fridge is that the temperature adjust dial is reversed. Whereas usually a higher number would mean higher cooling (so lower temperature), setting this fridge to high means it will maintain 15°C which is the upper temperature bound of its design. It will go to 5°C if you set the dial to low. Some negative reviewers must have thought their coolers didn't work since when apparently set to max they could only produce 15°C. I was confused and disappointed in its performance for a few hours as well. So just know that the dial is reversed from what is common with refrigerators. After 4 years of use, it stopped cooling completely.
