Beautiful fridge! My kitchen is very small, so this fridge is perfect and adds a bit of style. It's probably not great for more than two or three people to store their food in, as it is more compact, but it works well and looks great.

    Nice looking, but pain to defrost
    Love the way it looks, just the right size for a small apartment. Like the adustable shelves. Very easy to clean. I never had a refrigerator that I had to defrost before, and did not realize what a pain it is to do so. I also broke a shelf on the door and had to order from somewhere nameless and sketchy. It was work to fine the contact info for this company and it took a few months to get the replace.ent. thankfully they were.legit,but it was weird. -1 * for this and defrost

        Looks kinda cool
        At first I really liked this fridge, but over time it started to cool less and less and when I tried to contact the company, I couldn't get through to anyone. Left a couple messages that were not returned. Overall I'd avoid this one, mainly because of the customer service.

          Leaked after one week--causing flooding.
          Hose connecting water source to unit is a problem. Unique would not respond to my communications despite my providing proof of water damage with photos. They claim installers are responsible and installers claim they are not because fault lies with product design. I'm stuck with a big bill to deal with water damage. Buyer beware--and check hose connection carefully. Unique will not honor warranty if it fails.

            Ice cream is very soft. Refrig area is very small and if anything touches the back, it ends up with ice on the back and when the piece is moved, the ice melts and makes a mess. I have to return it. I don't need a lot of room, but this is way too small. Also, I did not initially see that it's not auto defrost. The color is beautiful.

            Small and simple
            I don’t like the look of large modern appliances, I was very happy when I found this fridge. We have another fridge in our basement. So this works for our family of four. Only complaint is the ice that forms up the back of the inside of the fridge at times. And the freezer is small the bottom drawer is deceiving bc the compressor is behind it.

              I was prepared to be disappointed as most retro appliances are not that well made. When we unpacked this refrigerator I was quite impressed with the detail of tha packaging and even more so by its fit and finish. The interior is top notch with its glass shelves, wine rack(removable) and very ample freezer. The real test came when we plugged it in. Was it noisy and would it cool slow like most people say about a retro refer? Again. I was pleasantly surprised by its quiet purr and its quick cooling. Everybody who has seen it says that they want one. We purchased this for a very special handmade cabin that is 3 stories and built of driftwood. The cabin is now 50 years old-I hope that this handsome refer has long legs also!!

              VERY GOOD, minimal frost, PERFORMS GREAT 24 hrs
              Please over ride my previous 3 stars 8 hours waiting of 50 degrees at 6 level [controller near the LED light]; but after 24 hours; then I saw 20-30 degrees; very minimal/light frosting upper fridge; and no-frost, only smog/smoke-like, but very cold freezer; with just enough firmness; not like a rock, to the frozen food which for me is a FIVE STAR. / I forgive my bad experience with delivery, I recommend the UNIQUE Fridge; it really was unique!

                UNIQUE is DEFROST manual, still ENERGY SAVER
                UNIQUE Refrigerator is NOT Frost free; it defrost manual. Still an ENERGY SAVER. It does NOT cool much than 50 degrees up fridge at 6 level, max is 7; just enough cool at freezer; food do not turn into rock but just right firmness. Since no food is perishing yet; it means that it is good; it is just that i am not used to low energy fridge. For the price of $1300 was not worth it. /Worst experienced was Delivery man intend to leave at the curb and not inside my home until I gave a tip.

                  Just what I needed for my small cabin within the National Forest. Looks fitting for the age of the age of the cabin, and gives me much more counter space in my very small kitchen. Seems to be running well. The ice scraper is a good thing. Glad they included it! It really looks great!

                  Looks good and that's all there is.
                  What an awful fridge. Installation: tall & skinny so, tippy requiring attachment to a wall, then it is maddening leveling it - God help those with uneven floors. Usage: back wall freezes as does food touching it; they know this since a flimsy plastic ice scraper is included. It's too skinny for day to day use by a family, finding/access is a constant fight. Forget the freezer, drawers open just 30% so you need to remove them to access contents. Get a normal fridge and thank me later.

                    I am disappointed that I have to defrost this refrigerator. I assumed it was frost free. I felt that your saleslady should have informed of that. I I was told I had to defrost this refrigerator I would not have purchased it.
                    Love the Retro look. Great choices of colors.
