SPT 4.4 Cubic Feet Compact Refrigerator in Stainless Steel, Energy Star

I put this in a $20K+ outdoor kitchen I built for a customer. I liked it because it had actual stainless steel on the door versus many that have a sticker that tries to look like stainless.

The compact refrigerator stopped working five months after purchasing it. Supposedly, there is a one-year warranty, however SPT will not accept Amazon's invoice as proof of purchase. In other words, SPT will not honor their warranty, or they purposely are making it very hard for me to get this item replaced or repaired. I am very dissatisfied with SPT's warranty. I will never buy another product made by SPT.

As of the time of this review I've had this fridge for six months now and it's worked very well at keeping all the food inside cool.

I had a Sanyo mini-fridge for about six years which I managed to break (completely my fault) and needed a replacement. What led me back to SPT/Sunpentown was a mini-freezer of theirs I bought back in 2010 which ended up being a fantastic buy. As this fridge was also roughly the same dimensions and same exterior design as the freezer I ended up stacking them and they look somewhat like one unit.

But back to the fridge, it works well, looks nice on the exterior, but whoever designed the interior didn't really know what they were doing.

1) I really don't like the shelving units being mesh, and would've preferred solid panes of plastic that slid in and out.

2) The can holder on the side door is completely useless. If you try to drop cans in there they just fly out the bottom, or worse, get stuck because it has this awkward wave design to it.

3) The lower level of the side door has a compartment to store bottles, but it can't even handle more than one two liter bottle. There just isn't enough space (but my old Sanyo, which was less cubic feet could store two, 2-liter bottles side by side on its side door lower compartment).

4) The side door lower compartment is held in with a flimsy piece of metal that clips into two holes on the side, such that if you leave anything heavy in there and open the door to quickly, it'll tip over and sometimes the metal clip will pop out.

So yeah, the fridge works and I bought it primarily because my SPT/Sunpentown freezer has served me very well over the years, but the interior layout, especially the door, is a disaster.

I hate to be negative but I must be honest!! We got this out of the box and it never worked! We had to return it to Amazon and on a positive note Amazon was FANTASTIC in handling the return so NO complaints about Amazon's customer service.

The fridge on the other hand, STAY FAR FAR AWAY!!!!
