Haier HC33SW20RB mini fridge: Features
The Haier HC33SW20RB mini fridge offers 3.3. cubic feet of space to chill food and drinks, which is about average size for a mini fridge. However, its shelving system is well configured, so you can store tall and short bottles, soda cans and other foods.
Also, it has a good-size freezer that extends partially across the top and includes an ice cube tray. You adjust the temperature using a knob next to the freezer.
The Haier mini fridge includes two easy-to-clean glass shelves you can position in four slots to accommodate different-size foods. The door also serves as a storage area, with two full shelves, two half-shelves, and a spot for a 2-liter bottle.
The door’s top shelf is a canned beverage dispenser with individual sections for each can, and the two lower half-shelves fit other foods and condiments. The bottom shelf has a shorter section that fits cans and a taller section for other bottles.
What's more, the door is reversible – you can remove the hinges, move them to the other side, and screw the door back on. As such, the door can swing open either to the right or the left to accommodate the place you want to put it.
The Haier HC33SW20RB measures 33.4 x 17.5 x 18.7 inches, so it fits in small spaces such as a dorm room or an office. You can slide it under a desk or countertop or put it in a corner. However, you need to allow sufficient room around the fridge so air can circulate. The fridge’s recessed handle also saves space.
It doesn’t have an interior light, which could be a problem if you plan to keep it in the garage or some other dimly lit place. The fridge also doesn’t have an automatic defrost feature.
