This was purchased for the garage. Our garage is not hot, bu the recommended setting for temperature is "3". On the "3" the freezer was at 17 degrees and the refrigerator was 47 degrees. This unit does no t have separate controls for the freezer and refrigerator compartments. Considering that this refrigerator is not opened with any regularity - sometimes days before the freezer or refrigerator are opened, these temperatures are too high. Placing the unit on "4" got the freezer down to 12 degrees and the refrigerator down to 42.
