Koolatron BC-130SS Kool 130-Quart-Capacity Compact Fridge, Silver

Koolatron BC-130SS Kool 130-Quart-Capacity Compact Fridge, Silver
  • 130-quart-capacity refrigerator/freezer for an office or dorm room
  • Flat-back design; 2 full-width slide-out wire shelves; door storage
  • High-quality compressor; adjustable thermostat from 28 to 50 degrees F
  • Reversible door with magnetic seal and recessed handle; leveling legs
  • Measures 21 by 22 by 33-1/2 inches; 90-day limited warranty

The fridge is rather large for a dorm room, but works perfectly once shared between two people. The freezer compartment is pretty big, but I personally have problems with keeping it properly shut. Also, the bottom of the freezer compartment collects water and the fridge inside keeps getting messy..

But overall I'm quite happy with it!

We bought this because it was the only counter-depth fridge we could find that had crushed ice; if I were to do it again I would forgo the ice crusher and get a different refrigerator...

Pros: Given the fact that it is a shallow depth design, and its ice maker/dispenser is very large, the thing has a surprising storage capacity. It has one shelf in the door big enough to hold a gallon or two of milk. There are three (three!) crispers--if you like crispers this is the fridge for you. The freezer is narrow but well thought out.

The store display and the salesman were both enthusiastic about the fact that you can slide an 18" pizza into this fridge and still close the door, so if you store a lot of large pizzas you should consider this fridge I suppose.

It is a very quiet fridge and judging from the utility bill it seems to be extremely efficient.

Cons: There are a lot. In order of importance:

The ice dispenser is so poorly designed it is almost surreal. It dispenses these moon-shaped cubes, and it will also chew these up and dispense them as crushed ice. Getting ice out of it is quite an adventure: you push your cup against this plastic trigger thing and then ice EXPLODES out of it. It might not do it right away--there might be a pause--maybe even a long pause--you will hear this rumbling noise--then like a cubic yard of ice will BLAST out of the fridge, fill your cup instantaneously, the proceed to dump ice all over the floor.

I am not kidding. The ice eruptions are so violent you eventually develop an involuntary wince whenever you touch the ice dispenser and you have to psych yourself up and take some deep breaths before you put yourself through the ice agony and violence followed by the inevitable sweeping lots of ice up and putting it in the sink.

The water line to the ice maker is a little plastic tube that snakes up along the back of the refrigerator and enters the freezer through a little fitting. The water line is prone to freeze up, which stops the ice maker from working. This seems to be a common problem with these judging from some internet searches. It is not difficult to pull the fridge out, shut the water off, pull the water line out and knock the ice out of it--but many people will not know how to do that and will require a service call to put it right. Very poor design.

The three (three!) crispers take up about 40% of the fridge space. Maybe that's okay with you, maybe not.

All the plastic bits, drawers etc inside the refrigerator are very flimsy. The plastic door over the ice maker was broken when the fridge was installed, apparently done in by the mere strain of being delivered. The drawers are thin plastic, don't slide well, feel cheap. This refrigerator cost a LOT of money, they can't make a decent plastic drawer for it?

All in all I don't think this appliance is worth the money; I suspect there are better values out there. But it will hold a remarkable amount of food for its size and it does seem to be very energy efficient.

I bought one of these about nine months ago from a large home improvement store (not through Amazon). I needed a counter-depth, stainless steel 'fridge, and it fits the bill. It keeps everything at the right temperature. So it basically does its job.

It is not, however, very robust. The shelf supports break easily, and they are not covered by the warranty. While they are inexpensive to buy (I found them on Amazon), they are fiddly to replace, and when replacing them I worried that the interior cladding of the 'fridge would crack. These supports don't hold up to family usage, with more than a few ounces of weight on the shelves. We certainly don't overload the fridge, but the shelves are full.

Recently, one of the cooler drawers cracked when I was trying to pull it open. Best practice: open the drawers with two hands rather than using one hand in the indicated space.

Previous reviewers commented on "exploding ice": I'd point out that the jet of chilled water is positioned differently to most water dispensers... and it takes a bit of practice to avoid water all over the floor.

Definitely not a high-price, high-quality refridgerator. If you have your heart set on a counter-depth, put a little more money into your purchase. You'll be better off.

(I do not understand why all fridges are not designed to be counter-depth. Who wants a monstrosity sticking out into the middle of the kitchen anyway?)

I've spent a portion of my life with this refrigerator. It was a great upgrade for us. Everything is good with this frig with some negatives, but it basically does what you want, and gives you a little extra space if you can accommodate its width.

1) The squeaky drawers were annoying at the outset, but loaded with food, they quit squeaking.

2) The variable temp drawer (fruit/vegetable, i.e. crisper) in the refrigerator is the coldest drawer, and even on warmest setting it freezes vegetables, first by the vent, then throughout. The solution is to leave the drawer cracked open 1/2 an inch. Somehow this doesn't touch the door, and gives enough air exchange to beat the problem. The other solution might be to make this the bread drawer, or something besides fruit.

3) The ice maker does blast ice. It does this variably, though, and there seems to be no rhyme or reason to the craziness. My last frig made terrible ice when it made any, so this is not a problem for me. It helps to have big mouth cups to catch all the ice.

4) If you care, the stainless front is very "magnetic", so all the junk you had on your old white frig can go right up on this one.

5) I've never experienced a stoppage on icemaking by line freezeup, but the paddle that swings down after making cubes has gotten a cube caught way up near its hinge point, and stopped making ice. This happened to us twice. Happily easily to fix and a rare occurrence.

All that said, we are pleased with this frig after 6 months of ownership. For the money, this is the frig I wanted.

Unfortunately, I found out the hard way that the refrigerator I bought had many flaws.One of them is the door racks in the refrigerator area.I have had to replace all of them except the top one, in about 4 years.Not realizing that Amazon might have them (silly me!Amazon has everything!!), I purchased the bottom and middle rack from someone else.The bottom rack never quite fit and I contacted the seller, who let me know that they don't offer a money back guarantee and that if I wished to have it replaced I needed to pay to return and then they would "evaluate."We found a way to make it fit, but, in about a year, it broke.Thus, began another search.

I had my item within a week, it looks like and fits like the original.If I ever need to replace any parts, I will first look on Amazon, and to this seller.

If you have also purchased a Frigidaire and faced this problem, trust that this is your solution.

I purchased a SS GE Profile refrig/freezer in 2002.The refrig was super quiet, except when the IM-4 icemaker cycled.The IM-4 could be heard from the next room.After having a new floor installed, the contractors must have damaged something in the rear of the icemaker (pump).I replaced with the new IM-6.After checking my connections and looking for puddles, I had to continue to look inside the freezer to see if it was working.The IM-6 is so quiet, I could not hear the cycling.The only sound that was heard was the ice dropping into the empty bucket.Finally a quiet ice maker for my quiet refrigerator!Good job GE.

I purchased the GE Icemaker IM-6 to install in my frig that had never been equiped with one.It seems the icemaker is packaged with instructions and extra parts so that it fits EVERY refrigerator GE ever made.It was not hard finding the simple two page instructions for my model.But being a guy, it was real hard to throw out all those extra parts not needed LOL.

The actual install was one of the simplest projects I've ever tackled.Was a little apprehensive when it took about 24hrs before it started producing cubes.But after that every hour on the hour... ice cubes drop.

I like this icemaker very much.Quiet operation and plenty of ice to keep up with my four adult users.Sure beats filling ice trays by hand.Thanks GE.

My ice machine stopped working in our GE GSS25TSWCSS side by side refrigerator.Our fridge/freezer was only 4 years old, but that about the lifetime of an ice maker. The green light was blinking on the ice maker. Everything i read online suggested that if the water inlet tube was frozen, then to replace the water valve at the back of the fridge. If there was no ice in the inlet tube then it was the ice maker and just to replace the unit. GE sell them for $148.75 plus shipping. This product included the WR30X10093 ice maker part for $81.00. Part arrived promptly. Removed 1 screw eased out the old ice maker, disconnected the plug and re-installed the new ice maker. Switched on and it immediately started making ice. Awesome. I saved about $60 on the part and no labor or call out charge.

Easy to install and works great.Having a tech come out would have been almost $300 but I purchased for 20% of this cost and installed myself in about 10-15 minutes.Nice thing about this purchase was the fact that not only did it come with the ice-maker, it came with pretty much every part that i might potentially have issues with down the road. (If you purchase different parts from a parts store, it would have been over $200.

Great buy and suggest ordering if you have issues with your ice-maker.

Easy to install. Made the first ice in less than one hour. The instructions were a little scary due to the fact that the book (yes it's that big) of instructions covers all GE models this kit installs on. The kit includes parts for all of the other models. It took around an hour to install.

1. 20 minutes for read the instructions and separate the parts I needed for my refrigerator.

2. 20 minutes to install the Ice maker.

3. 20 minutes to install the water feed line.

No kidding, just an hour screw divers, pliers, and a 1/2" wrench.

I killed my old refrigerator by over-stuffing the freezer section.This little freezer provides the perfect backup for my new one.It fits in a corner and makes a nice little end table. It stays very cold, maybe because I only use it for long-term storage and don't open the door very often.You do need to pay attention to the warning about keeping it level. When it gets bumped off kilter, it rattles loudly.On kilter, it's so quiet, you have to feel it to know it's working.

  • Digital temperature controls
  • Includes glass shelves, black dotted glass door tint

This product just doesn't seem to work well. For the first month or so, it was able to get down to about 38 (the lowest setting) , but now it just keeps going all the time and doesn't get below 46. On another note, Home Depot apparently sells a unit just like this for 1/2 the price. I don't usually have buyers regret, but in this case I do.

The unit works great though it does get noisy sometime a strategically place spacer between the wall and the fridge reduces the noise. All in all the unit works as designed and looks great in my game room

I bought a dozen of these to save the most money possible.REading the previous reviews, I was a bit worried about a percieved plastic taste to the water, but was pleasantly surprised that after running them for 5 minutes like instructed, they provided very good tasting water.Maybe because I was expecting it, I tasted a lil bit of an aftertaste the first week, but anyone I polled about it (wife, friends) said the water was great.Also, plenty of comments on how fast the water was coming out...maybe I let that old filter overstay it's welcome.

Did not have any problem fitting them in my Samsung fridge (29cu ft model).No leaking or other issues.Great solution and hopefully these are still available 5 years from know when i run out of filters again;)

In local big box stores, the price for a single filter ranged from $42 to $49. Instead, I bought 12 filters on line which reduced the price drastically to less than $10 each.I could do this confidently, because I have purchased this filter on line before and my regrigerator is fairly new, so I expect it to last for the six years these filters should cover.It's a better return on my money than the money market these days, and the product is really top notch.
