Smaller footprint, plenty of room

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have always had a second refrigerator in my basement. The one I've had for a while finally broke, and I jumped at the opportunity to grab this Frigidaire. The old one was big, and knowing this one was smaller was a bonus. I didn't need the garage ready functionality, but for those that do this can be in temps from 38F-110F (3.3C-43.3C) temps.
THis is a no frills refrigerator/freezer. No handles on the doors to open, but they open easily. The freezer is simply two pull out draws. The refrigerator ahs three shelves and door storage. It was plug and play. I only tweaked the internal temperatures once. It's quiet, and despite it's smaller size, it has a decent amount of storage. This would be perfect for small city apartments with tight staircases, a studio apartment, or even a dorm.
For my purposes it's perfect, freeing up space from where the older larger refrigerator was, and providing me ample room for my needs. Based on my initial weeks of use, I would definitely recommend this refrigerator where smaller size matters.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Small but mighty

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great compact Garage Ready Fridge.
Was looking to replace an old 26cu ft Fridge in the garage with a Fridge that was designed to handle the warmer temperatures in the summer.
This Fridge was half the size the old fridge so it could fit in a smaller footprint.
Being a Bottom Freezer it made a lot of the Fridge items easily accessible without having to bend over.
For only being 12 Cu. Ft. it had enough shelves and bins to satisfy our needs for being a secondary fridgerator.
I would recommend this to a friend!
