Can you really call this a fridge when it cant even get cold enough to store milk properly?

edit: in fact even Argos don't call it a fridge, they call it a 'cooler' coldest it can go (at its maximum) is 6 degree's, prefer my beer and pop colder than that.

Craft beer and real ales are not meant to be drunk at standard fridge temperature

I don't want it stone cold so a cooler is the perfect option:

35–40°F (2–4°C): Mass market light lagers
40–45°F (4–7°C): Czech and German Pilsners, Munich Helles, wheat beers, and Kölsch
45–50°F (7–10°C): IPAs, American pale ales, porters, and most stouts
50–55°F (10–13°C): Belgian ales, sour ales, Bocks, English bitters and milds, Scottish ales
55–60°F (13–16°C): Barleywines, imperial stouts, Belgian strong ales, and Doppelbocks

THINK OF THOSE GAINS :laughing:

entirely up to you if you complain or not but yours doesn't seem to be running to manufacturers spec, how this will effect the running and reliability in the long term is anyone's guess.

So basically I should complain I need to take it back because it shouldn't get cold enough but actually does the job as expected.

Seems confusing!

My only issues are that it could be just that little big bigger and would be nice with the glass door if it had internal lighting.

Think this shows the inconsistencies of the quality of the product then as the instructions and website clearly say they're not suitable for perishable food and drink, also quite a few comments on here saying they don't get as cold as a 'normal' refrigerator, with other commentssaying they get too cold. Sounds like yours may have a faulty thermostat.

Bottles don't fit unless remove rack.

Bought one to replace the Aldi one I had that packed in after 15 months (and they only gave me money back less 15 months of 'use'). So took the Argos 3 year warranty on this which is defo replacement or full refund, used my nectar points to get that for free. We store beer and soft drinks and they are all lovely and cold - no complaints on that front, but it is quite small compared to the Aldi beer fridge and it has no light.

Not sure what the LOL is for? It was an informative reply. Not everyone wants cheap frozen beer.

not saftey glass ,cheap thin glass thats a real risk if u have one break

Fridge....vs.....Cooler..... 6 degrees of seperation...........close but not close enough :sunglasses:

As has been mentioned the back freezes up but unfortunately this doesn't mean the rest of the appliance is cold, it clearly states on the manufacturers website that they are not suitable for perishable food or drink.

Actually came to ask this myself. Thanks for the calculation- that's insane!

I used to have a stella one of these and didn't have any issues with it not being cold, I had to turn the temperature to a little bit warmer because some things were freezing

Think I will give this one the cold shoulder.

Great small fridge. Select pick up in store, seems near me.

Don't forget your VAT at 5% :laughing:

Cold. Bought from Sainsbury's a few years back for £39.99

Do these small fridges still use shed loads of electric to run?
Always liked the idea as a teen but was put off by high running costs.
Any mathmatical genius got the time to work out how expensive one would cost?
If its alot will stick to odd bottle in normal fridge

Why does Becks fridge say '•Temperature range of 0 to 10°C' --- whilst all others '•Temperature range of 6 to 15°C'?

Either a misprint or the Becks Fridge is a better one to have.

How much do these cost to run per month please? does anyone know, Im curious cause it could cost more than the fridge if it has a fan at the back?

I have a stella one already. The beers at the back of the top shelf get cold and that's about it. Nice to have but don't imagine it's a proper fridge.

We use one of these for everyday milk and small items. Been fine for over two years. (we have a larger fridge for other stuff but it's not in the kitchen). There's a small thermostat hidden outside at the back. No probs with it.

I don't recall Juxtaposed ever saying he had created that list of beer temps himself, and I would expect any sane person to copy/paste data when quoting it. :smirk:

And it's beers, not beer's, unless that's a surname?

Thats exactly where I copied it from, it's not like I memorise that kind of thing....
No denying that I'm in the minority but then most people who want to chill their drinks to ice cold will use a fridge or a bucket of ice. It's usually the minority that would opt for a cooler hence the comment.

Isn't it amazing how folks buy things without actually reading what they are? We've had one for years. It sits in the conservatory in all weathers and does the job it's supposed to do perfectly. Didn't pay anything like they cost now though!

I have one of these and they are rubbish. I thought they would be really cold, but actually your fridge is colder

lovely!

Had one for years now and seems to do the trick.

Heat added.

LOL for the reply although I think you may be in the minority keeping your various 'Craft' beer's within the recommended temperatures.

Edit: well done for the copy and paste though from here, word for word the same :smirk:https://beerandbrewing.com/cold-beer-warm-beer-select-the-right-serving-temperature/

Very poor, gave mine away.
The only way you will get cold beer out of one of these, is to put it in cold to start with.

I have one of these they really are not that great for the money the temp inside even on high setting doesn't meet regulations for a fridge so reallt these are more coolers.

The back ices up as well easily

I have one and the fan has stopped working at the back, its out of warranty and no replacement parts available, I would personally avoid these.

Code doesn't work on the Husky wine coolers unfortunately.

Make sure your cans dont touch the back. One of the cans in mine exploded as it started to freeze as it was touching the back.

sorry my bad

Terrible beer brands, prefer a more generic one.

Why would you even post more expensive mini fridge? Or are you just showing people that it's not even a deal?

Don't get cold enough :disappointed:

*beer is calling* - Did check for the voucher but gone :disappointed: - Technically still a good deal at £89.99 so still a decent price incl del with code.

Enjoy your chilled drinks later!

Just checked to see if the £5 voucher for a £50 spend was still on but that ended 2 days ago :disappointed:
I'm too stubborn to pay for delivery on a £80 spend!

THINK OF THOSE GAINS :laughing:

I do lift bro but I'm not sure I'd want to carry this home.

I have always wanted one of these Husky fridges.

Shame about the £3.95 delivery charge :disappointed:
