Okay, so I finally caved and got myself a mini fridge, specifically the GE model. I’d been thinking about it for a while, mostly for keeping drinks and snacks cool in my home office. Here’s how the whole thing went down.
First, I started with some online browsing. I just wanted to see what was out there, what sizes were available, and get a general idea of prices. I wasn’t even sure if I really needed one, to be honest.
The Hunt Begins
After a few days of casually looking, I realized I was spending way too much time going back and forth to the kitchen. Okay, maybe a mini fridge was a good idea. I narrowed my search down to a few brands, and GE seemed to have good reviews for reliability, which is super important to me.
Making the Decision
I found a few different GE models, some with tiny freezers, some without. I decided against the freezer – I didn’t really need it, and I figured it would just take up space and use more energy. I opted for a simple, compact model that looked like it would fit perfectly under my desk.
The Purchase and Setup
I ordered it online, and it arrived a few days later. The box was surprisingly light, which was a good sign. Unboxing it was easy – just some cardboard and a bit of plastic. I wiped it down inside and out, just to be sure it was clean.
Then came the fun part: plugging it in! I found a convenient outlet near my desk, slid the fridge into place, and plugged it in. It started humming quietly almost immediately.
Stocking Up
- I waited a few hours for it to cool down completely.
- I grabbed some of my favorite drinks – sodas, juice, and some bottled water.
- I also added a few snacks, like yogurt and some fruit.
I checked the dial and set it and it to the number I thought it was cold enough.
It’s been a few weeks now, and I’m loving it! It’s so convenient to have cold drinks and snacks right at my fingertips. No more constant trips to the kitchen! It’s definitely one of those small things that makes a big difference in my daily routine. The GE mini fridge is working great, keeping everything nice and cold. I’m really happy with my purchase.
