Frigidaire FRFG1723AV Refrigerator vs Newair AB-1200 126-Can Beverage Fridge

The Frigidaire FRFG1723AV Refrigerator is a 17.6 cu ft counter-depth French door fridge that features EvenTemp cooling to keep your food at the perfect temperature. This refrigerator is designed to fit seamlessly into your kitchen, with a counter-depth design that provides ample storage space without protruding into the room.

The AB-1200 is Newair's freestanding beverage refrigerator, sized to hold up to 126 standard cans behind a glass door. It is a dedicated drinks fridge rather than a general-purpose mini fridge: the shelving and the temperature range are set up for cans and bottles, and the glass front means the contents are visible without opening the door. Seven temperature settings cover everything from cellar-cool to properly cold, and the shelves are adjustable so taller bottles can be accommodated by removing or repositioning a shelf. At 18.9 inches wide it is designed to stand free rather than be built in, which makes it straightforward to place in a kitchen, home bar, office or games room. Newair backs it with a two-year warranty.
