Product review (4 stars): Works great...w/the adjustment
Ok so I felt I had to do a review as theres a lot of misinformation out there. Just received it and unfortunately there is a ding on the rear thermostat cover..not a big deal but I see alot of reviews with the unit being damaged. It came double boxed but with only a thin styrofoam piece to protect it.
I set it up for 24 hours without any adjustments and it varies between 42-45 degrees..definitely not cold enough for beers.
So I did what everyone else did and removed the cover and from what some users said turned the screw CLOCKWISE gradually and it went up to 48...turned it further and it got up to 60 degrees!!! So I went back and turned it COUNTER CLOCKWISE and finally was able to get it lowered down to 28 degrees!! So by trial and error I adjusted it a couple more times clockwise and it finally got to 34-37 degrees. Noticed when i turned it you hear a clicking noise that kicks the compressor on and gets it a few degrees colder. Turn it some more and it clicks and the fridge cools a few degrees more.
Overall had to take a star off for the ding and after all these reviews about changing the thermostat I would figure Danby would just adjust the thermostat themselves since 43 degrees won't cut it.
