Well its here. I'm going to be letting the refrigerant settle for 24hrs before I plug it in.
My initial impression of the build quality:
Impressive, the weight distribution is a little odd as expected. Kinda like the old projector tv sets with an offset center of gravity. Its lightweight and the handles make moving it simple.
It was very well packaged with plenty of styrofoam, taped well, and even had plastic strapping around the box.
The materials seem to be sturdy. I was expecting kinda cheesy cheap plastic but to my delight it's well built.
The unit has a QR code sticker on the front for the app that is available for it. It comes with the AC/DC transformer for use on AC power as well as the 12v DC cigarette lighter socket plug.
I havent powered it on yet so I dont know if the thermostat is in C or F, but there is a USB port on the control panel which is interesting. I'm planning to use that port for my 5w USB fan.
As far as the interior so far I have put in a 1 gallon container of milk which DID fit, but the lid would pop back up by a millimeter or 2, so I'm going to be looking for a square half gallon container that I can use to put milk in for the fridge.
A 2 liter coca cola zero bottle WILL NOT fit. At least standing up it will not. That's fine by me as i dont chill my 2 liters. Those are all the items I've dry tested for fitting so far.
I'm planning to update this thread on the regular so stay tuned, I'm planning to test it in freezer mode as well as continuous duty as a refrigerator. So far I'm impressed with it if it turns on and gets cold. $200 price tag seems to be worth it for me.
