Sometimes it just seems like too much trouble to go into the kitchen to get a drink or a snack, so it is nice to be able to keep these in various locations around the house. This is where a frost free compact refrigerator would come in handy. These are also great for dorm rooms or if you have a small office. The most compact refrigerators require manual defrosting and are a bit cheaper, but it is nice to have something slightly larger (though still compact) that is easier to care for.
One of the smallest sizes of frost free compact refrigerators is the Frigidaire® 4.4 Cu. Ft. Compact Refrigerator. At only 9 it is also very affordable. One of the best things about this refrigerator is that it has a separate freezer compartment so you can actually keep some frozen ice cream in it, such as pints of ice cream. You can get it in either stainless look or black finishes, and it has a freezer shelf, two can racks, three refrigerator shelves and three door shelves.
Not all compact refrigerators have freezers. One of the options for people who would like something a bit different and don't need a freezer is the KitchenAid® 5.1 Cu. Ft. Double Drawer Refrigerator (Color: Stainless) ENERGY STAR®. Instead of the typical refrigerator with a door, this refrigerator has two 24 inch wide drawers with LED lights to help you see what is inside. It is 24 inches wide and has interior LED lights to help you view what is in the drawers. At ,998 this is one of the more expensive options available.
Another medium sized frost free compact refrigerator is the KitchenAid® 6.0 Cu. Ft. Compact Refrigerator (Color: Stainless) ENERGY STAR®. This ,448 refrigerator can be turned into a built in or used as a free standing refrigerator. There is one shelf in the door as well as a can rack, and there are two fresh food shelves. There is no freezer compartment, however.
People living in apartments or people who just want a somewhat larger frost free compact refrigerator should consider the Summit 11 Cu. Ft. Frost Free Refrigerator. It is a counter depth refrigerator made out of stainless steel and costing about 6. This is one of the options that include a freezer compartment, so it would be good for people who don't keep much food in the house or apartment.
