Mini fridge for summer cottage: 5 models

Nord NR 403 I white

The compact dimensions of this refrigerator, like other models in the review, do not particularly affect the capacity. Nord 403 will save space in the kitchen, in the office or in a small country house. You can fit 94 liters in the refrigerator, and the volume of the freezer is 17 liters. Increasing the useful volume in favor of the freezer compartment should attract fans to store large pieces of meat at home or cool drinks to meet numerous friends. In their reviews, buyers claim that this model is well suited for a country house, since enough weekend food for the whole family can easily fit inside.

There are no special differences inside the refrigerator. From top to bottom: a freezer, two lattice metal shelves and a transparent container that allows you to keep fresh fruits and vegetables. Unlike other models, baskets for bottles and small products in the doors are not height-adjustable and, as buyers note, are more convenient for storing light products in small packages.

Corresponds to the energy consumption class "A". The temperature relay allows you to adjust the temperature inside depending on the season and the workload of the shelves with food. In addition, an additional guarantee of high-quality storage will be provided by a special antibacterial coating AlphaSan Masterbatch. The refrigerator door is outweighed and the automatic backlight works.

Candy CCTOS 502 WN white

A striking example of a classic single-chamber refrigerator of compact dimensions. At a height of less than a metre, the useful volume of the refrigerator is 84 liters, and less than 13 liters can fit in the freezer. In principle, this size can satisfy the needs of a small family both for use in an apartment and for storing food during a summer vacation.

The internal equipment is quite rational. At the top there is a freezer, below there are two roomy shelves and a classic compartment for storing vegetables at the very bottom. There are three baskets on the inside of the door: for vertical storage of bottles, eggs and distribution of various sauces and spices. The main shelves are made of glass, and additional sections are made of transparent plastic.

The model belongs to the economical class of energy consumption "A+". The control panel allows you to adjust the temperature: you can reduce it at full load or during the hot season, as well as increase it when the shelves are almost empty. The maximum cooling limit is -24°C in the freezer. The manufacturer explains that for a full freeze, for example, two kilograms of meat, you will need one day.

Among other things, there is an internal backlight, the door handle on the refrigerator is hidden, and the door can be hung on the side that suits you.

DEX DRMS-85 white

The height of the body of this model is 85 cm, that is, less than a metre, like the previous refrigerator. But at the same time, the internal volume of the main compartment is slightly larger — 103 liters, and the freezer can hold up to 15 liters. In their reviews, buyers note that the model is very practical, fits perfectly in a small kitchen, and also serves as an excellent country refrigerator for large companies. It is free to accommodate a stock of necessary products for almost a week, users write.

At the very bottom of the refrigerator there is a transparent plastic container for vegetables and fruits, above it there are two strong glass shelves, the height of which can be adjusted if, for example, you need to accommodate a large pot of borscht, and at the very top there is a freezer. Additional compartments are also available on the door: a deep shelf for bottles, milk or juice, two transparent shelves for small products.

Like the previous model, the refrigerator corresponds to the energy-saving class "A+". The maximum cooling temperature is -18°C. This indicator is lower than the previous model, but the temperature still allows you to keep food fresh and even freeze food for several months.

There is also a temperature control function, automatic illumination and the classic possibility of hanging the door.

Shivaki SHRF 90 D

This model is several centimeters smaller than its predecessors. But the main difference lies in a separate access door for the freezer, which allows you to maintain a consistently low freezing temperature. Note that the volume of the freezer is much larger than that of the previous models — 27 liters. But along with this, the volume of the refrigerator has been reduced to 61 liters. Summer residents especially liked this model. Buyers note that thanks to the large freezer compartment, they manage to freeze more berries by winter.

The freezing compartment is located on top, there is a shelf for small items on its door, but if desired, a small bottle can be placed in it. There are also door baskets in the main compartment. The vegetable drawer is made of transparent plastic. The main shelves are different — the lower one is made of durable glass, and the upper one is a metal lattice.

The model corresponds to the energy consumption class "A". With a small expenditure of energy, the freezer is able to freeze a two-kilogram piece of meat in 24 hours.

This refrigerator should interest fans of bright and unusual solutions. Manufacturers position their product as a mini-bar. The lacquered model in the retro style of the 50s with a shiny metal handle has a size of 72x40x56 cm. The useful volume of the refrigerator is only 40 liters. But since customers will most likely have to cool various drinks, such dimensions are more than enough.

The model provides the presence of only one refrigerator compartment, but it, of course, provides height-adjustable shelves, door baskets and even a container for freezing ice. The temperature is regulated by a thermostat in the range from 4 to 10 °C, which allows you to cool drinks for maximum disclosure of the fullness of taste.

The mini-bar does not provide the possibility of outweighing the door, so before buying it is better to immediately decide which way the door should open. The device is also available on the market in several colour solutions.
