Over the last year I have quite dramatically changed the direction of my career and life. Given the current economic climate and lack of job prospects I could see ahead of me, and the fact I have no major responsibilities other than for myself, I decided to quit my day job and apply for a place at University. Keeping costs low, I opted to stay in the Halls of Residence and even managed to get the cheapest possible accommodation for a short time (shared room, good grief). Anyway, my room-mate was a spoilt madam who quickly got herself moved out, and with the extra space I decided to make things more comfortable for myself. Among other small comforts, I bought myself this .  Read the complete review

One of the first devices I bought when I moved into my flat was a mini Fridge from Argos. Two years down the line it is still going strong and has become a permanent part of my fixtures and fittings. I decided to get a mini fridge for my bedroom as I spend a lot of time in there, am lazy and often wake up on a night choking for a cool drink....especially after a night out. Also my main fridge tends to get full so its handy having one of these for my cool drinks. This cost me around £25 if I remember rightly and comes in the white design shown here. It certainly feels much more solid and more compact than previous devices I have used and it feels expensive, ...  Read the complete review

I received the Argos 6 litre mini-fridge as a going away present for university and it's been an essential part of my life for the past year. I use it exclusively for cans of beer and occasionally the odd mixer for spirits. We share one fridge in my halls of residence between 10 of us, which is just about enough to keep all our food in if we share a shelf, but when people start stocking up with alcohol for nights out then the fridge becomes packed with all kinds of alcohol so that you can't access any of your food. I've never caused this problem however, since I was clever to purchase (by which I mean have purchased for me) a mini fridge so I'm always stocked up on ...  Read the complete review

I thought I'd try something a bit different for this review, and see how it goes down! I'm one of these sticklers who likes something to be just right... for example, coffee needs to be nice and hot, but a can of cola or something stronger (!) needs to be ice cold. I cannot bear a drink that is supposed to be cold being tepid, or even warm. It totally spoils it for me! Taking into account this fact, and also that my fridge is full to bursting with all sorts of assorted foodstuffs, investing in one of these little fridges seemed like a very intelligent option. For the most part, I am not disappointed with my purchase, but we'll have a look at the ...  Read the complete review

I convinced my mum and dad to buy me this mini fridge a few weeks back, having had it for a few months, though I loved the idea of having a constant supply of food close to hand, I reluctantly donated the fridge to my nan. The idea was so that she could always have a source of chilled food and drinks close to hand, in having some difficulties walking about. Initially, I was pleasantly surprised at the size in general, as I'd read reviews that criticised its smallness, but it is described as only 6 litres inside, and it is a mini-fridge - I think some people expect way too much. The fridge was great at chilling foodstuffs and drinks and even came ...  Read the complete review
