Red Refrigerators

Choose from the wide selection of red refrigerators at Staples® to add a splash of color to your living or work space. A fridge is a convenient appliance for keeping drinks cold and preserving foods. It is available in a wide range of sizes and designs. When you get one in red and with an eye-catching design, refrigerators can also easily improve the aesthetics of almost any room.

Brighten Your Home or Office With Retro Red Refrigerators
Most full-sized refrigerators come in four muted colors: white, black, gray, and silver. Those painted in bright colors like red are usually showpiece appliances with retro designs that pay homage to fridges sold in the 1950s and 1960s. Red fridges with vintage designs look stylish. Popular classic styles include ice chest, vending machine, and garage refrigerators. These may look like novelty items but they are fully functional appliances. A common theme among retro refrigerators is the vintage Coca-Cola® branding. Some models sport the white lettering of this brand against a cherry red background. Look for compact countertop fridges and freezers are big enough to store cans of drinks within easy reach. These can even be portable units that run on USB or DC power. Portable refrigerators are bigger and more powerful. They have condensers like full-sized refrigerators and can lower temperature more effectively than USB models.

Features to Consider When Shopping for Red Refrigerators
Choose a unit that is the right size for the available space in your office or home. Most compact fridges have capacities between 1 and 4 cubic feet but you can also find standalone units with interior spaces measuring up to 10 cubic feet. These appliances are usually made of stainless steel although some units have plastic handles. If you plan on placing your mini fridge in a cramped space, look for a model with a reversible door you can install to open to the right or left. Most mini refrigerators have integrated freezer compartments. For better temperature control, get a two-door model with a separate freezer compartment.

Other desirable features to look for when comparing compact and mini red refrigerators include adjustable thermostats, removable shelves, and in-door storage space. An adjustable thermostat lets you change cooling temperatures and save energy whenever you want. With removable shelves, you can fit large items inside your refrigerator while in-door shelves increase available storage space.

Are There Red Refrigerators With In-Door Water Dispensers?
Yes. You can find built-in liquid dispensers in full-sized and mini fridges. This convenient feature lets you draw a cup of cold water without opening the fridge.

How Do Red Refrigerators Keep Their Contents Cold?
Compact fridges designed mainly to hold canned beverages use solid-state thermoelectric cooling to keep drinks cold while mini fridges have compressors and lower temperature by circulating coolants. With fewer moving parts, thermoelectric coolers are quieter, consume less energy, and do not vibrate. However, models with compressors get colder and cool faster.

Should You Consider Red Refrigerators With Interior Lights?
Interior lights illuminate the contents of a fridge and turn on only when you open the door. This is a useful feature when getting something from the refrigerator in the dark. Most units use LED lighting to ensure that the lights do not contribute significantly to energy consumption.
