Sales of mini-fridges surge in August, driven by college kids planning to keep a ready supply of snacks and beverages in their dorm rooms. If you're a prudent student, you'll want to check our latest report on the compact refrigerators, since not every model makes the grade, especially if you plan to keep milk and other perishables inside.
Even before you get to our Ratings, review your school's housing rules to make sure mini-fridges are allowed. Some colleges prohibit them, while others encourage students to rent the units directly from the school. If a fridge is permitted, use our compact refrigerator buying guide to find the best model for your needs. A small, less expensive unit that falls short of our recommended list could be fine if the only thing you need to keep cold is a steady supply of Diet Dr. Pepper, or whatever your caffeinated beverage of choice might be. Otherwise, take a close look at our refrigerator Ratings, since there really is a wide range in performance.
