Product review (1 stars): Failed Twice in 3 Years
I hardly ever write reviews, but wanted to reiterate what other reviewers have already stated. This is a beautiful looking frig on the outside and holds a lot of beverages, but the cooling system is total junk. The first unit completely failed in less than a year. Since there's no Danby service in my area, after three months of back and forth with Danby "customer service" they finally shipped me a new unit. I was skeptical. Sure enough, almost 2yrs to the day later, it has failed again. Over the past two years, the frig has run for weeks or months at a time, but then will just stop cooling while I watch the temp drift higher. In these cases the compressor becomes too hot to touch and is really a fire hazard concern. Unplugging the unit overnight and plugging it back in the next morning has worked about 10 times, but now its done. Another issue is that, when it does work, if I put too many warm beverages in the frig it can't handle the load and stops working. Since it came with a 5 yr service contract, I'll get another one assuming the service contract company honors its commitment.
