Good News:Does not seem to be a gimmick fridge, it is truly a fridge because my cokes were indeed ICE COLD!!!
Bad News:
It buzzes and it breathes. Think of Darth Vader! Yes, that type of breathing sound! It is weird to say the least. I think it's good for a game room where you won't be sleeping, but if you're thinking about bedroom, FORGET IT! There is no break, no cycling as others have mentioned. For some reason, mine is a constant buzz, constant breathing. Maybe it's because I have the setting at "COOLEST," but why wouldn't you want your cokes to be as cold as can be?
A WORD ABOUT THE PACKAGING AND DELIVERY:
Now Amazon has pulled this product and I know exactly why since I bought it. It's kinda funny actually. It's shipped to you in it's retail box. Meaning they do not put it inside a real shipping box. They do put one of those plastic ribbons around it. There was only 1 ribbon! They didn't bother to secure it with a second cross ribbon. Anyway, shipping without a brown shipping box isn't anything out of the ordinary. Heck, my recent drill press from Amazon was shipped that way. It's not good if you live in a bad area and you're not home, and people can clearly see a brand spanking new Coke Fridge on your porch. However, that's not the problem. Once I was able to drag the box inside my house and I was lifting by the plastic ribbon, it was starting to slide to one side. Good thing it did not slide off!!! Because once inside the house, I cut the ribbon with a scissor, but I decided I needed to move the box to another room. I bend down to grab the box by its left and right side squatting like a weightlifter, when I got up the box felt very light. The fridge was still on the floor!! LOL! They apparently cut all four sides of the bottom with an exacto knife or something. Now do you see how dangerous it was for them to only put one plastic ribbon around the box?
I don't know if the packaging is prepared this way by Nostalgia Electronics, or if this is Amazon's idea of frustration free packaging. LOL! Anyway, I'm sure this is why they have pulled the item for the time being.
I'm going to return mine due to the noise and a ding/dent I found on the side of the door fridge, probably due to the lack of real packaging. But I will package it and return it to them better than how they delivered it to me.

The item is cute and works well. People complained of noise, but I don't hear it at all over my radio (which is not loud) at work. It does keep items very cold. My complaint is the packaging. It arrived in it's original box within a packing box; however, there was no padding whatsoever. The fridge had a dent on the side and the top was scratched in a few spots. I didn't feel like packaging it back up since it keeps things cold, but I'm very annoyed that it was damaged before it even came out of the box.
