Newair® 177-Can Built-In Beverage Fridge in Stainless Steel - 24"

We purchased the fridge four years ago based on attractive looks and overall reviews. It was more expensive than other brands. It never received much use because it was a bar fridge in our basement rec room that didn't get used a lot. The compressor quit working this spring and I was told it could not be replaced. I also tried to see if it was anything else (loose wires, etc.) without success. Disappointed it only lasted four years and is now in a landfill.

We bought this beverage cooler about 6 years ago. Within the first year a cooling fan failed. Newair sent a replacement fan at no charge but it was not the correct fan after 2 more attempts we received the correct fan. Had to pay a refrigerator tech to install it. Newair DOES NOT have service technicians. A different Fan failed a year ago. We replaced it. A few weeks ago the unit quit cooling and was actually warm. This time we contacted our home warranty company. A technician came out and reported the compressor had failed. Parts not available from the manufacturer to repair the unit. So now it is useless. In addition, the cooler was always noisy. We will get another beverage cooler but it WILL NOT BE A NEWAIR brand. We will buy a name brand which has service technicians and stands behind their product.

I cannot recommend these units. My unit died in less than 2 years of use. The unit stopped cooling and when I contacted newair they offered to send out a new temperature sensor. This did not fix the issue and another call to newair informed the unit had a cooling system issue. I had the unit diagnosed at a local appliance repair who identified that the compressor was not longer working. New air doesn't offer parts to fix any cooling system issue so the unit is garbage at this point. New air offered me 40% another unit that would end up costing me more than I paid for the unit initially in 2022. Very disappointed and cannot recommend these units.

Does the door have the ability to stop and not swing all the way open? Meaning like a door check arm.

Had this unit for a few months until frost buildup started occurring at the back of the unit. We would fully defrost and it kept happening. Waiting replacement unit now and I am really hoping we do not have the same issue again.

We've used this fridge daily for about 4 years, before the power control board went out. Newair has been helpful in replacing the part. Although the minimum temperature only goes down to 37 degrees, we've been happy with the unit for primarily beverage cooling and overflow refrigeration during entertaining.

I used my newair https://newair2018.myshopify.com/products/abr-1770-177-can-beverage-refrigeratorto put my drinks in but it stopped cooling And I'm so ready to get it back working and i would recommend this company they have really good customer service skills and care that they help get your product back to working

I bought this unit as part of a kitchen renovation. It is a stand-alone unit that perfectly fits a 24" space under the counter and is super quiet. The blue LED light adds nice ambiance at night. After taking out the top shelf, I keep beer bottles upright on the top shelf and fill the rest with soda cans and water bottles. It is constantly being opened and closed and as long as you keep bottles from piling up against the back there is no problem with icing. After 3.5 years of heavy use it stopped cooling but Newair customer support talked me through troubleshooting using nothing but a thermometer and diagnosed it as a bad thermostat. The part is only $20 and I can replace it myself. I originally bought this unit on sale for about $500 and now I see similar units going for about $900. I am extremely happy with the product and the personalized customer support that I received from Charles!

We really love our Newair beverage cooler. It was the perfect design and size for our wet bar. And to make it even better, the customer service we received the one time we had to reach out to Newair was amazing. I highly recommend this beverage cooler!

Fridge works really well. It keeps all the drinks really cold. It also looks amazing with our other stainless steel appliances.

Use this product in my basement bar. Great looking product. Customer service was also easy to deal with!

Great customer service on an item out of warranty. Five Stars! I would give 10 stars to customer service representative Charles Trapp if I could.

Product is great except the compressor switch is bad

The beverage cooler is so quiet and sleek! The interior lighting feature is a beautiful addition. Customer service has also been friendly and courteous!

The light feature adds a little something extra to the bar! The adjustable tempt allows you to chill your beverages to the right temp for you! The only thing that is a little off is the shelving. Hard to arrange bottles and cans to get maximum capacity, but very similar to every other brand out there! Small inconvenience for a great esthetic look and function! Would buy again!

The product was not functional when received but thanks to the wonderful customer service newair replaced it with zero hassle. Excited to receive my new unit shortly.

We use the unit in our new kitchen bar area and is useful for entertainment
