About Frigidaire EFR176-MOONBM 1.6 cu ft Moonbeam Retro Fridge
Overall Feedback:
71% positive
87% found the temperature control easy to use; however, 13% experienced inconsistencies or inaccurate temperature readings
I had to turn down the temperature control of the compact-refrigerator several times because it was so good.
The outer sides of the refrigerator are very hot to the touch, despite the inside being cold and the freezer being icy cold. This indicates an issue with temperature control.
I had a hard time regulating the internal temperature of the compact-refrigerator.
87% found the size and capacity suitable; however, 13% wished for more space or had issues with fitting items
I bought the refrigerator because it would fit in a specific spot, but unfortunately, the measurements on the listing were incorrect and it did not fit.
I found the actual height of the refrigerator to be different from the stated height, causing inconvenience as I wanted to install it in an RV where dimensions are important.
74% found it quiet to operate; however, 26% experienced occasional loud noises or buzzing sounds
I expected the refrigerator to be noisy but it sounds like a cat purring.
The compact-refrigerator comes on every 3 minutes and I can hear the noise, but it's not too bad. I've adjusted myself to ignore it.
The refrigerator is very loud.
I am concerned about the noise level of the compact-refrigerator, but it gets completely quiet once it reaches the desired temperature.
78% appreciated its energy efficiency
I personally measured the energy consumption of the refrigerator using a watt meter and found it to be energy efficient. The refrigerator came on 6 times per hour for 5 minutes while empty, with a watt peak of 213 watts for only milliseconds before settling at 40 watts and turning off. Therefore, I can conclude that the refrigerator is energy efficient.
81% were impressed with its durability; however, 19% experienced issues like malfunctioning parts or premature wear and tear
I have noticed that the manufacturer does not package the product well enough to protect it during shipping.
88% appreciated the design; however, 12% found it less attractive in person
The compact-refrigerator is perfect for my space and has a cool retro look, making it very attractive.
I am disappointed with the design and aesthetics of the compact-refrigerator. The actual color is nothing like the photo and it is an ugly flat gray color which reminds me of old office cubicles. I would have opted for the red or black one if I had known the color was so far from the description.
The design and aesthetics of the compact-refrigerator are a huge miss.
I received a product with a different design than what was shown on the Amazon website.
89% found it efficient in maintaining cold temperatures
I noticed that the compact-refrigerator has a great cooling performance as it became super cold in less than 30 minutes on the 3rd setting, which is a positive feedback from me.
