Whirlpool 3.1 cu ft Mini Refrigerator Stainless Steel WH31S1E: Energy Star Certified Dorm Fridge, Reversible Door, 2 Shelves

A: No. It has a constant low hum and then worse when the compressor is running.

A: My colleague and I have this fridge in our office. It's very quiet.

A: It is a very subtle humming most of the time, but when the compressor is running you can definitely hear that thing working a bit. Still think it is not that loud.

A: No, it is not quiet. It has a constant low hum and a louder hum when the compressor is running. I worry that it will disturb my guests when they are sleeping. I would not purchase it again.

A: it has a low humming noise, but its not too loud that it will disturb people.

A: Humming sound but that’s typical of most fridges

A: How cold does this get? Temperature wise in numbers (F)?

A: Mine is very quiet. It obviously has the running sound of any refrigerator, but it is very subtle.

A: Yes, it's extremely quiet, even when the compressor is running.

A: 59" is correct length for the cord.

A: Entirely too short...

A: You can get appliance grade extension cords.

A: The cord is 59".

A: It says right in the manual that you should NOT use an extension cord or adapter (page 2)

A: No, the feet are not adjustable.

A: There are rollers on the front that can be used to adjust the level

A: Manual p.3 says must adjust leveling legs on front corners (clockwise to raise/counterclockwise to lower) and to ensure the appliance is sloped slightly backward to ensure that the door closes tightly

A: Me too! I just called 1-855-666-4477 and was told that plastic tray slips on top of the compressor and clicks in place. Guess it's to prevent and collect any water drips. Make sure the black foam faces the compressor.

A: It sits on top of the compressor to collect water form the drain tube. You can see the drain tube projecting out of the fridge.

A: Please contact 1-855-666-4477 for assistance with your refrigerator.

A: Basically, you *slide* the white plastic tray onto the top of the compressor. Notice that there is a projecting white piece on the bottom of the tray and a similar projecting black piece on the top of the compressor. They should click into place, as you slide the white tray onto the top of the compressor. If problems, call the Whirlpool number: 1-855-666-4477.

A: It is not suggested to lay it on it's side.

A: yes. It was packed well.

A: Yes, but do not plug the fridge in when you get home. Place it upright and leave it overnight before plugging in so the coolant/fluids inside have time to settle.

A: Yes you can. The owner's manual says you should stand it upright for at least 4 hours before plugging it in.

A: Yes, it can be transported on its side, however, please place upright for a while before use.

A: Someone upthread (possibly a brand expert? Not sure) posted that yes you can transport it on its side but that you need to leave it upright for a minimum of four hours before plugging in.

A: Yes, it can be transported on its side.

A: We recommend a setting between 4-5 on this unit.

A: We recommend setting the unit at 4 or 5, depending on your needs.

A: We recommend between 4-5. It depends on your preference.

A: Thank you for your question. This product uses 0.8 amps

A: I was wondering the same thing. After reading, I believe the main difference is that the black one has 2 slide-out glass shelves. The stainless steel one does not.

A: I just purchased the Whirlpool Black WH31BKE, and the glass shelves are removable. They are not adjustable.

A: In the q/a's of the Whirlpool Black WH31BKE it says shelves are adjustable, but stationary. They do not slide in/out.

A: Yes. We added magnets to the front.

A: Yes!

A: Yes, it is magnetic.
