Q: There is a white tray with a sticky putty. At the back with all the machines. What am I supposed to do with it? Please give visual instructions
submitted by Ashley - 1 year ago

Q: I need to transport this horizontally, which side should I place it on and what should I do when I get it to the destination? Is there anything else I should do during the transport?
submitted by JW - 6 years ago
A: If it's going to be on its side for very long (> 1 hour), you'll need to leave it standing 12 hours before plugging it in. This is because the coolant needs to redistribute, otherwise the compressor may get damaged. I would put it on its left side, if the door opens to the right. Don't lay it on its back or front.
submitted byEric - 6 years agoA: We recommend using two or more people to move and install refrigerator. Failure to do so can result in in back or other injury
submitted byCustomer Care Team - 6 years agoBrand expert
Q: When plugged in for the first time the outside of the left side was very warm to the touch. Is this normal? I unplugged it pending response.
submitted by JA - 16 days ago
A: It's normal for the outside of a microwave oven especially the sides to feel warm to the touch during or shortly after use due to heat dissipation. Please allow 2 inches of clearance on each side for proper ventilation. Please unplug the unit if you notice the side becomes extremely hot (not just warm) or if you notice burning smells, strange noises, or the fridge isn’t cooling properly and contact our customer service at 1-855-666-4477.
submitted byCustomer Care Team - 16 days agoBrand expert

submitted by Lane - 2 months ago

submitted byCustomer Care Team - 2 months agoBrand expert
Q: What are the screws and 2 white plastic looking things thats come with the manual for?
submitted by Jessica - 6 months ago
A: The two white plastic parts are door closers that goes on the bottom hinge of each door in case you need to reverse the doors.
submitted byCustomer Care Team - 6 months agoBrand expert

Great mini fridge, tons of room and cools great. Love that the freezer is completely separate so it shouldn’t ice over like every one I’ve had before.

Whirlpool Mini-Fridge. Great price, great storage, great specs! Super deal for the money!

Perfect size for dorm, bedroom, den, or small efficiency apartment. Double door w/ separate fridge and freezer sections. Fridge will keep food from between 32° F and 48° F. Freezer compartment can get to -1° F to 32° F. A subzero freezer in a Mini Fridge at this price is incredible! Small enough to go anywhere, yet large enough to hold food and drink for a week for a single person. 2 liter and milk sized storage on door plus a six pack of cans. Plenty of room for fruits/ veggies in the produce drawer and 2 shelves for storing refrigerated foods, and room in the freezer for several TV dinners and a couple of steaks and hamburger. Great product for the price. The ONLY complaint I have is that the ad showed an energy cost of $34 / year, and the energy sticker that came with the unit showed $44.80 / year. Other than that, I believe this is one of the best deals you'll find anywhere for the quality and utility of this unit.

Just wanted to comment that this whirlpool looks like the exact same fridge as the Kenmore 3.1 cu-ft Refrigerator. The kenmore is less expensive.
