This is a great little fridge. Looks so much better than those in stock HD fridges. This just happened to be the perfect size for the area I had. It's not too loud. You can hear it for sure but you don't need to turn up the TV when it kicks on. I had mine for about 10 months before the temperature sensor broke. I called NewAir and they sent me out a new sensor to replace it. I'll let you know how hard it was to replace. I think the key is to not over load the fridge especially the top shelf. It has a tendency to get too cold. I lost a few sodas & beers when they froze and popped. It goes from Off to 7 on the settings. I found the best setting is about 5.5. Keeps everything around 40 degrees. I recommend this if your looking for a nice well rounded cooler that hold quite a bit of cans.
