Ok, but need to use this with an adapter
Got this for my room, and so far so good. My only complaint about this unit is supposedly you can’t plug this in a multi-outlet adapter. With limited space and a limited number of outlets, this would seem to make an adapter necessary.

Do not buy; short ridiculously short lifespan!!
Fridge died after just over a year of use. Used in a dorm from august 2025. Died in October of 2026. I personally feel like it should have lasted longer. It even had summer break off…

The delivery personnel didn’t handle the product correctly, resulting in two instances of damage to the refrigerator.

Replacement order came damaged as well.
I ordered one that came damaged and had to send it back, then the replacement came and it has a good size dent in the side. Not impressed.

Lasted 3 Years
I purchased this in 2023 for my office, but wound up not needing it. So it's been used at home, strictly for extra beverages (so not heavy use.) I woke up today to find the fridge had broken overnight. It was great before it broke, but I hoped to get more than 3 years of use from a Whirlpool product. The design and temp (everything was very nicely chilled,) was great, but I can't recommend a product that only lasts 3 years, and cost well over $100.

Great value
This fridge is a great for a dorm room! It offers an additional cubic foot of storage with the same dimensions of most mini fridges. It runs quietly.

Damaged and not in a box
Item showed up damaged… outside of the box and Target is refusing to help me with the problem. They are telling me to buy a box to ship it back in. Another suggestion was driving it over an hour to a store. That was the point of ordering it for shipping. Poor service from Target!!! I have spent over an hour and 3 phone calls trying to fix the problem.

While the mini fridge cools properly, it did arrive with a dented lower corner.

Great employee service
Well, I haven't even opened this yet but I just have to give a big shout out to the young man who works at Target who helped me get this thing into my car! Give him a raise!

This item worked perfectly for 3 days and then stopped cooling. My son has it at school and no longer has the box so cannot return it.
