Ivation 126 Can Beverage Refrigerator | Freestanding Ultra Cool Mini Drink Fridge | Beer, Cocktails, Soda, Juice Cooler for Home & Office | Reversible Glass Door & Adjustable Shelving - Black

awesome refrigerator so far, had it for a little over a month, I put it on my work boat, it stays fully stocked pretty much 24/7 with 5 crew members stocking theyre drinks daily, it will keep a fully stock fridge of drinks cold on just the number 2 setting, and it goes all the way to 5. And its so quiet yo I can't even hear it unless you put your ear to it. Plus it adds a little class with its front glass and inside light. UPDATE iv had the refrigerator almost a year now and it works amazing still. It gets very cold so you have to keep it between the 3 and 4 mark on the temp, or the coils will freeze up. But it keeps a fully stocked fridge of drinks nice and cold. Does exactly what you want in a mini fridge

I got this as a kimchi fridge (and other vegetables). I bought it based on my thought, "Wow 4.5 stars out of >1000 reviews! It must be great!!" It's not. I should have read the reviews. People talk about wildly variable temperatures. Interestingly, a lot of people said it doesn't get cold enough. I had the opposite problem: WAY TOO COLD. I set it up correctly: • Let stand for 3 hours after unpacking it. • Set temperature control to zero and plug it in. • Wait 5 minutes. • Then turn control to desired temperature. I set it to 3, and put a thermometer inside. After about an hour, the temperature plummeted to 28 degrees Farenheit. Holy cow. So I set it to 2. Two hours later: 29 degrees Farenheit The I set it to 1. Two hours later: 32 degrees Farenheit This is ridiculous. So I set it to 5 (the coldest setting) to see what happens. Welcome to the Arctic: 17 freeking degrees Farenheit. The item description says its lowest temperature is 34 degrees. Wrong. Great freezer. Awful refrigerator. It would have absolutely killed all my veggies if I didn't test it first. Needless to say, I'm returning it. (side note: Who was the brilliant engineer who thought it would be a good idea to put the light switch on the INSIDE of the fridge?) With all that said, the fridge looks nice and it was quiet.

I bought this fridge after seeing my former workplace have one. It seemed neat, and didn't make much noise so, why not! I can say after buying it, it's very much worth the money. To give you some bullet points - Fridge Space I don't know how they did it in the preview image, maybe they bought the extra small sodas, but you cannot stand up soda's on the shelves. I've tried. They must be laid like my water bottles, and you can do 2 rows of that each shelf. So about... 1 case of soda a shelf. Pretty good I'd say! Bit awkward to reach but whatever. The bottom is spacious enough to stand 1 can of Monster, or alcohol, however not tall enough to fit a Water Bottle. I would stand my Monster up, however you can only fit about 2 rows of Monster at the bottom, the third row being... Questionable! - Temperature A lot of reviews mentioned drinks exploding at 5 on the thermostat. 5 for reference, is the highest. I haven't stored soda in the bottom rack, and I certainly haven't chanced it, but since I've had this thing day 1, I run it somewhere around or above 4, and nothing has exploded. Actually, it cools really, really fast. I go through a lot of water when I'm home, so I'll end up constantly swapping bottles out with new ones. In the time I drink 2 bottles of water, the bottles I have replaced it with will have already chilled, it's that quick. At one point, due to the visible depth, I had propped up a single water bottle behind the row, on all shelves. Just for temperature. After doing this, ice formed on the lowest shelf. It's still there actually, and this is what I mean when I say I haven't chanced it. If you put your drinks too close, on too low a temp, you risk ice, which will inevitably explode your drinks. So beware of that. Finally, lets talk about the temperature adjuster... It's a dial. And when you stack soda like I have in this image, you actually can't get to it... It's in the bottom right of the fridge which is an odd design. You can find other fridges with LED thermostats that allow you to change time. This is just numbers on a dial... Kinda iffy on that but, whatever. - Noise The fridge makes an audible, but not too annoying noise? Perhaps I am too use to white noise, however I want to say at the interval of 1-4 times depending on your temperature every hour it will cool itself. During this process, it makes a low humming sound, similar to a vending machine. This noise ambient enough to be drowned out by literally anything else, but is definitely noticeable if you listen into it. It does this for about 5 or so minutes before idling. When idling, the fridge makes about as much noise as my PC, this is to say... Very quiet. It actually rivals my PC with how quiet it is. - Closing thoughts If you're looking for a fancy or neat looking cooler, this definitely takes the cake. It has minor flaws like the temperature dial being positioned where it is, but otherwise I've been very happy with my fridge. It's well insulated, comes with an LED light inside it at the top, and again is generally quiet. I think there are more... utilitarian fridges regarding the temperature dial, but other than that I recommend it only on the exception you have cash to burn.

I got this about a year ago for a new house. It was OK, and seemed to do an allright job. We had problems maintaining the temps-it would get into the 20s in the summer mornings, and burst cans-not a lot of fun. On top of that, it was NOISY. SO NOISY. Oh my god it was bad. I'd hear it kick on and rumble and vibrate and whine, and figured I was going to have to replace it when it prematurely died. Then I went on the internet and searched for causes of noisy drink fridges and I saw a few references to levelness. I looked at it and realized it was *way* high in front, tipping it back. I leveled it out and...just like that, the noise issue is 100% resolved. Not partially resolved, but it almost never makes a noise, and never makes enough noise that I'm worried about it these days. I don't know if the fridge will freeze over like it did last summer, because we're just entering into the hot months, but I haven't lost any cans due to freezing since last summer. It's pretty much in the upper 40s at all times. Not quite 40, but I don't wish to have to mess with the temp controls for months to get it closer to 40 for risk of freezing things again. 45-48 is pretty decent for drink temps.

I am using this as a cheese cave to age my hand made cheeses. It does work well, BUT a few gripes i have. The light switch is on the inside of the fridge. I feel it would have been more helpful had it been on the outside. The door is double paned glass but fogs up which just looks bad and finally it has a numbered thermostat. It would have been nicer had the dial told you what the temp you were setting to was. Instead you get a abstract numbering system you have to figure out. OH and there is no way this will hold 100 cans of soda. I have three 12 packs in and its nearly full. On the plus side is so quite i forget its running.

ANOTHER UPDATE: recently i noticed the fridge wasnt keeping things as cool as it should, i thought it was on its way out, then after doing a little reading, i realized this needs to be reset if it loses power or becomes unplugged. the directions say as much also, (yeah, i didnt read them either, lol ) i realized i had unplugged it at one point to defrost it, (that is another reason it might not keep things as cool also). So after following what the directions, which say you need to turn the dial all the way to off, wait 3 to 5 minutes, then set it to the temperature you want. it started working correctly again. so if you find your drinks not as cool as they should be, try these 2 fixes, and especially refer to the users manual that came with the fridge. its there for a reason. :D Update: ok, I solved the problem of the uneven temperature. I found these little fans here on Amazon, theyre basically computer fans. I bought one that has two fans connected to a plug. I put one fan on the bottom shelf and the other on the top and that is what it needed. I got the idea after reading about RV fridges sometimes needing a little fan to circulate the air inside. Now the drinks on the bottom shelf don't freeze anymore and the items on the top stay icy cold. The fans were about $20, but you could look to see if there might be a lower price. So if this is an issue for you, this is an easy fix. My boyfriend and i enjoy our beer. We enjoy a variety of different kinds, so I bought this thinking it would free up some space in my big fridge. While it has done that, it isn't the greatest at keeping my beer the way I like it, super cold, without freezing. There are definitely warm areas in this fridge. The top area of the fridge is warmer than the middle and bottom. I also dislike where the dial for the temperature control is, its at the bottom. Im not a young chicken any more ,so getting down on my hands and knees to try to read and adjust this thing is a bit of a hassle. If I had realized where that was I might not have got this particular model. Other than these two problems, its a nice looking fridge. Im hoping the issue with the beers freezing is a trial and error thing and I'll be able to adjust the fridge and eventually find the best temp for each shelf.

the fridge looks nice, it was a great addition to our movie room. EDIT: I ended up with same problem other users had, where the fridge wouldn't go below 45 F degrees at max setting. I did a bit of research and found I could remove the thermostat (comes out from the back- no need to remove the wires- it will rotate around to the side so the hole can be seen, just unplug the fridge of course), rotate the screw counter clockwise on the side a couple turns, and reinstall it and it now reaches 34 degrees just fine mid setting. I'm sure they would replace the unit, but I didn't feel like lugging it back downstairs to repack and ship it. I don't advise that to the non technical as it was not an easy feat and one has to be very careful to not kink the sensor tube. otherwise it seems to be a great little fridge.

Do. Not. Buy!!!!!!!! We purchased this in Mar 2023. We never filled it to 126 can capacity because drinks weren’t getting cold above the bottom shelve. The panel in the back of the fridge was covered in an inch thick layer of frosted ice within a few weeks of use. We took everything out, unplugged it and cleaned it. Still didn’t get cold. Then, a few weeks later, the same ice layer happened. We figured it was just working really hard so we didn’t over fill it and kept drinks at the bottom of the fridge. Defrosted, repeat. Same issue. The two shelves in front of the block of ice were able to keep drinks mostly cold, so we kept using it because it was out of the Amazon return window. We finally got tired of the warm drinks and I went thru the troubleshooting by steps provided by the company. Didn’t fix it, either. I finally called the company. Customer service rep immediately put in a request for replacement. Didn’t ask for pictures, proof, anything. Was familiar with the problem. It was denied due to being 4 months passed the warranty period. I asked for an escalation because surely with how many reviews cite this as a problem and how they already know about it, there would be something more done or an exception for a faulty product. Nothing. Nada. Lies actually!! Was told “there’s no known issue with this fridge” followed up by “this usually happens when customers don’t have enough space behind the vent in the back” or “if it’s been moved multiple locations” or “setup problems by owner” that cause the issue. Well, how would they know those suggestions if it “wasn’t a known issue?” Super unfriendly, unprofessional and it results in us owning a $300+ piece of junk. DO NOT BUY ANYTHING FROM THIS COMPANY, ESPECIALLY THIS FRIDGE.
