Who makes the smallest refrigerator for an office?

Apr 10, 2012 8:05 PM

Not the inefficient thermoelectric ones, but a proper, small-size fridge. Let's say cost is not a consideration, who makes a good one? Good design is a plus. EnergyStar is a plus.

This one's probably thermoelectric. But you DID ask for the SMALLEST:

It's probably not the smallest, but the one I have in my office and have seen in many other offices is a Holiday brand made by Maytag. However, I am not finding it on a search so perhaps it is discontinued. Best Buy has a 3.3cf Frigidaire.

I'm seeing a lot of results for Energy Star Haier brand units. Newegg also has an EdgeStar 3.2cu for under $250 with free shipping that's also Energy Star and has a stainless front that makes the individual fridge and freezer sections look like a shrunken version of the big boys. If we had the extra money to toss around I'd be tempted to get one for the family room.

is it safe to assume you do not want a dream-cheeky single can cooler?

I've been looking for a "medium sized" minifridge to turn into a small kegerator for my homebrew. Craigslist has tons. I'm sure you'll have no problem finding a tiny one for under $100 easily.

@omnichad: Thanks, but no, I don't want a thermoelectric one. Those are highly energy inefficient and also depends heavily on ambient temperature...

@adadavis: Brilliant. So 2.3 cu. ft. Anything out there smaller than that?

@adadavis: Nice. But that first reviewer worries me. "We are very happy with this product. We bought this for a small convenience refrigerator in our bathroom to hold items like coffee creamer, water, etc and it is perfect." I've never felt the need for a convenience fridge in the bathroom, and I've definitely never needed coffee creamer while in there.

@moondrake: I think in pictures, so I prefer to think of someone in the shower, holding a hot cup of coffee outside the shower curtain, occasionally putting his/her head around the curtain to take a sip. Yup. That's what I see. If you have some other explanation .. I think I'd prefer not to hear about it. I much prefer the image in my head.

And to prove that this fridge belongs in an office full of nerds, this review: "It fits perfectly under my desk and helps me to make better eating and drinking choices at arm's length." You just can't make this stuff up.

@adadavis: My sister would live in the bathtub if she could. She's one of those candles, scented oils, rose petals and inflatable tub pillow kind of people. Sometimes I wonder if we are actually related. But I could see her wanting a fridge within arm's reach.

Not a farewell, just a forced redirect.

It's true, Local.Woot is no longer, but please don't despair.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
