Product review (5 stars): Love my cold soda.  This does a great job at a great price.
Some reviews indicated the cans don't get cold enough so I cranked it to MAX cold.  There are ice crystals in my soda.  NICE!  I'd say it get's the job done.  It's not quiet but not really noticeable either after a minute.  It is close to the TV/Family room and in no way is obtrusive.  The shelf layout is flexible to set up in a few different ways too so that is nice.  One minor issue is if you close the door to hard it will bounce open slightly ajar.  I've found it cracked open a few times.  I may tilt it back slightly but the unit operates perfectly and as expected.
