Product review (1 stars): Not a good buy!
I was so excited to get a beverage frige so I could free up our main refrigerator for actual food.  The reality was terribly disappointing.  It arrived in great time and the packaging was really well done with multiple layers cardboard and polystyrene.  But from the moment I opened the box though and found an extremely poorly manufactured appliance, I was let down.

The stainless steel door frame was dented and scratched, the defrost tray was half hanging off the back, the cold plate was screwed on crooked, and the black interior was scratched.  I was planning to keep it anyway because most of the flaws were cosmetic and I propped the defrost tray up so it would hold the run-off.  I could tell the condition of the appliance was done at the manufacture level because the packaging was not damaged.  I really hated the idea of packing it back up and going through the trouble of getting it shipped back.  I mean it's 70 pounds.

So anyway, it seemed to work ok to begin with.  I really liked the LED interior lighting.  I liked that I could adjust the shelving so easily to accomodate larger bottles.  But by week three, it was no longer keeping the drinks cold all the time.  So I sent it back and this time I'm trying the Danby which is about the same size and $100 cheaper.

Again this arrived in good time in really good packaging, but I think this was previously used and refurbished because, again, the stainless door frame was scratched up and the interior showed residue of previous use.  Also, the glass door is slightly scratched.  What is wrong with these manufacturers?!?  $200 to $300 is a lot of money for the average family!  They certainly don't respect their consumers.  I do have to say that the general quality of the Danby is much better than the $100 more expensive Newair.  The door on the Danby is of sturdier construction, the cooling apparatus is very well made,  I love that the Danby's interior light comes on when you open the door instead of having to flip the switch each time like on the Newair.  The Danby's cold plate runs down the back almost to the bottom as well as it having an interior fan to move the cool air around (unlike the Newair which had the smaller cold plate crooked towards the top only).  I also like the wire shelves have a black plastic coating which has a nicer look.

All in all, I was not happy with the Newair.  I would not buy it again.
