Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Waited nearly 2 years to write this review because I see no point in writing one when it's new. Nobody wants to find out it's a piece of crap a year down the line. I've had mine 19 months now and I still love it. I use this as my only fridge since my roommates have left me no space in our kitchen fridge, so I keep all my food in this little Igloo. It's heavy. I couldn't lift it and had to have a neighbor do it and even he struggled. It's very good quality so I'm not even going to complain on that. A lot of space. The fridge runs deep, so if you position your bottles right and use stackable containers, you can fit A LOT in this fridge. It's insane. You can fit about 8 soda cans inside the door. Me personally, I keep sodas stacked, with vegetables in the bottom tray, lay my condiment bottles down on the 2nd row above that, keep food stored on the 2nd row and use the top 3rd row for keeping stuff extra cold since it's near the freezer. Not really a true "freezer". The freezer works very good but it's only to keep small things frozen. It does not get cold enough to keep food that's suppose to be frozen, frozen, so do not put stuff like ice cream, large packs of meat or any thick frozen dinners in it, they will melt and spoil and you'll think of my review and I'll be like I told you so. I use it to keep small things like butter, hotdog packs, wingettes and vegetables on ice, but do not try to put anything thick in here for long-term storage except butter, small packs of meat and condiments. I had put a 12 pack of chicken legs in there for a week thinking it would be ok and they went bad, I had to throw out the whole pack. It's also useful to get drinks cold fast. And no you can't remove the freezer tray to make more space. I but found it's welded to the back of the fridge and the thermostat wiring is welded into it. Swappable doors. The door comes off so can switch it to the other side if you want. Easy to clean. All the inside shelves and doors easily pop out for easy cleaning; just be careful when popping out the freezer flap because it only has plastic hinges that could break and you'd need a new flap. I had a soda explode in there and it took me 4 months before I decided to clean it. Surprisingly, all I had to do was wipe it down with water and dish soap and it came right off. Easy peasy. Adjustable feet. The front has two plastic adjustable feet while the back has no feet, just a metal bar. I have raggedy wooden floors so I don't care, but if you have nice floors you'll want to put a rubber mat under it so it doesn't scratch your good floors. A few tips: Use the bottom row for condiments and lay them down rather than standing them up so you can have more vertical space for another tray or just to place extra stuff If you use a tray in the very top slot, it will get like 80% benefit of the freezer and will keep things frozen. Found this out the hard way when I put some cucumbers on my top shelf only to find them frozen bricks the next day Although I love my Igloo, I took away a star because over time it has gotten LOUD. All of a sudden, every time the thermostat kicks on there's a very loud *POP* that is nerve-racking. I don't know if something is breaking or if it's normal but it still seems to run fine and it's been doing that popping gig for about a year now. It's probably ok but just really annoying. +++Update+++ Fridge is now 4 years old, I've moved and it's still going strong!! Definitely worth the money at this point :D
