Nostalgia RF6RRBK Retro Dry Erase 6 Can Refrigerator w/ Carry Handle and Heating

Our daughter decided to commute to college instead of living on/off campus. Therefore, we decided to give her room a dorm makeover! When we saw this fridge, we knew it would be perfect for her! On her 20th birthday, she received it and loves it! The color, size and the pen to write notes on the door makes it a winner!

Unfortunately, this "refrigerator" isnt a refrigerator, but just a peltier cooler. It has to have a fan running non-stop to cool the inside. The fan is surprisingly quiet, but still audible. Simply put, this thing cant cool even a single can. With nothing inside, it was able to go down to about 45 degrees Fahrenheit, which is not refrigerator cold (~38 degrees), but adequate for drinks. However, putting a single room temperature (72 degrees) can of soda inside is just more thermal mass that this thing can handle. 6 hours later the can is 60 degrees. I couldnt imagine putting in 4 or 6 cans. I am going to return this unit. For about double the price, you can get a small, cheap mini-fridge - a real refrigerator - that will hold at least 4-5x more and can actually get to freezing temperatures, if you want.
