Died after nine months
on December 25, 2020
Posted by: customer
from USA
This is, like it says, a "garage" refrigerator. I wanted an "all" refrigerator for my kitchen. The huge casters make it too high off the ground. They can be removed, but there are no real feet, just skids for it to sit on. It is not efficient for the kitchen. Luckily shelves & drawers from my old fridge fit so space works OK now. But it did die after nine months. They couldn't get anyone to come out & service it, so it was replaced. Hoping it keeps going. I had planned on getting the matching all freezer, but now I don't think so.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Died after 9 months

Died after 9 months. It was under warranty, so it was replaced. We use this in the kitchen. On the casters it is too high. But without the casters there isn't much of anything else there for it to rest on but these cheap looking plastic skids. Shelving is very inefficient. I stole extra shelves from the old fridge to add.

Second Gladiator refrigerator to quickly fail
on March 27, 2021
Posted by: Tim W
from Windham, NH
I had bought a first Gladiator refrigerator and it failed in about 2 years (beyond the warrantee). I thought it might just be a random problem and liked the other feature of the Gladiator, and bought a second Gladiator to replace it. It also failed in about 2 years. Quality control is apparently a problem here.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Waste of Money
on May 27, 2021

I bought the Gladiator Refrigerator in Feb 2020. I stored it in my garage (I live in Central Ohio). By May of 2021 it was no longer working. As many reviews have said, this thing does not last very long. It is way too expensive to only last that long. It looks nice but doesn't work. Do yourself a favor and buy a cheaper refrigerator from your local hardware store. I'm sure it will last longer than this.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We bought both the Gladiator Refrigerator and Freezer. They are stylish and work beautifully. So much room! I do have a question: Where can we get extra/replacement shelves or bins? I really want to add to the organization.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Hands down the best purchase!

I can't speak highly enough about this product! We have struggled for years to find the perfect garage ready refrigerator for our Illinois home. I am so impressed with this BEAST! During the polar vortex, where we hit -50F, the refrigerator kept temp and didn't freeze a thing! It only dropped 1 degree. We can't wait to see how it does this summer! So far, extremely pleased with the purchase!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Not a good investment
on October 26, 2021

The entire premise of these products is deceptive.
They are marketed as if they are designed specifically for garages however they cannot tolerate the temperature fluctuations that nearly all garages experience.
Unless your garage is fully climate controlled, just as the inside of your house would be, this refrigerator will break down in less than two years.
Refrigerators are clearly not made to last like they used to be. I had a refrigerator from the 80s in a carport for over 10 years without an issue. The company was accommodating enough to give me service on this refrigerator but I am not sure what good that will be long-term.
Again, the most troubling thing about these products is that they are marketed to suggest that they can be used in a place where they cannot be used. If they were marketed to be in your basement, that would be less of an issue.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
