Review: Works Fine - it's light (one person can carry it) and small (check the dimensions) - First day review (I will update if malfunction or function changes significantly): This is good for one person. It's very light: I carried the unit vertically myself upstairs with not any problem. (I have seen/carried much heavier & smaller fridges). It is very small (compared to what the photos look like), so check the dimensions before you buy. (dimensions are in photos and details). Fine for one person. Fridge section goes down to to -0.5c. The global standard temperature suggested for all fridges is 4.0c - so it passes this test. The freezer section is freezing well. It is quiet, but not silent, there is a very small buzzing sound when it is operating. I purchased a used version here on desertcart and saved 100 AED, it only has one dent in the side of it. I am happy with the purchase and I will use this unit.
Review: worst referigerator - We need to buy an axe and shovel to remove the ice formations on the wall of freezer side and bottom side as well . size is so small. no pockets in the freezer section.
