First: This in no way is a 62 can beverage cooler. Unless you have all the same drinks stored, there is no way that you can fit 62 cans and still reach the ones in the back without having to remove all the ones in front.

Second: I use this in my dorm room, and it is very loud--sometimes obtrusively so. It makes a very high pitched whining noise as the compressor vibrates. My friends who have much cheaper and larger refrigerators do not have this same problem.

Third: The items in no way get as cold as a normal, full size refrigerator. Although I did expect this, even at the highest level of "coldness" this refrigerator is not what I had expected. It does keep everything cool, but certain items such as milk will not keep very long since the bacteria grow faster in the warmer environment. This aspect of the refrigerator was disappointing.

I rate this as a 3 star because, even with its flaws, it is a very nice looking unit. I wanted something that was visually appealing, and that is what I got. Its a nice fridge, but for the same amount of money (plus S&H) I can get a much larger fridge at my local "big box" store that even has a separate freezer.

Do I have buyer's remorse? Occasionally, yes.

Buy EdgeStar 62-Can Beverage Cooler - Stainless Steel Now

This refrigerator looks great but functions poorly. When I first purchased it it was freezing my water bottles in the back. After about two weeks it barely keeps the water cool (at the highest setting). It really is a poorly working refrigerator. Save your money...plus there is no light for it. I would have wanted a light to see my beverages through the glass door better.
