I need recommendations for an under-cabinet mini-fridge for a small wetbar. I thought I'd get a decent $150 22"-wide mini-fridge with freezer. Today I learned I need a fridge designed for in-cabinet installation. Naturally, these are much more expensive. Or, I can buy a smaller free-standing mini-fridge and have a gap around it underneath the bar; which is not attractive.
I wanted freezer space for ice, for mixed drinks or guests who want ice in their soda. The in-cabinet fridges all seem to be beverage coolers only, with no freezers. Are there other options for ice for a wet-bar?
The mini-fridge will be in the theater. No design options to be outside the theater except to not have one. The ice-maker is something for later; in the meantime I'll use an ice bucket.
Very important if in the room, the noise level. I have a wine cooler (I understand not what your are looking for) and I have a concern about running any kind of calibration while it is plugged in. Much noisier than our standard refrigerator.
Thanks, I'll add that to my shopping list. We've settled on the bar design. Construction is later this Summer, so I've got a mont or two before I buy the fridge.
I did a Uline 1024. Expensive though. I wanted the coldest cooler and one that would last a while, so I went with Uline. The cheaper ones will fail sooner or not maintain the cold temps.
A great feature in the U-Line: it has a power button on the inside control panel. So if I don't want it making noise during a movie, I can easily turn it off, and turn it back on when the movie is over.
