Our verdict

A freestanding glass door drinks cooler with a lock and a large can count for its footprint. Manual defrost and a seller-dependent warranty are the two things to plan around before buying.

Overview

Not a food fridge with a freezer box, this NewAir is a freestanding drinks cooler with a glass front, wire shelves and compressor cooling in one chilled section. A lock on the door secures the contents, and the thermostat offers a set of custom settings.

Can capacity is the reason to buy: a party's worth of drinks fits behind one locking glass door.

Who it's for

Hosts who stock soda and beer for guests get a locking glass front cooler that stands on its own. Shoppers who need freezer space or a built-in cabinet fit should look elsewhere.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Large can capacity in one compartment
  • Electronic lock on the door
  • Glass door shows contents without opening
  • Compressor cooling with an inverter
Cons
  • Manual defrost needs periodic emptying
  • No freezer compartment
  • Freestanding only, not rated for built-in use
  • Heavy to carry upstairs

Performance notes

Cooling comes from a reciprocating compressor with an inverter, so output can vary with demand. Wire shelves let cold air move around the cans, while the glass door gains heat from a warm room faster than insulated walls do, so a cool room helps it hold temperature.
