EdgeStar BWC121SS
Score: 68/100
Kalamera Beverage Cooler 15-inch
Score: 74/100Rankings
The Kalamera KRC-90BV is a compact 15-inch under-counter beverage cooler with blue LED lighting, six adjustable shelves, and a lockable UV-tinted glass door. Its limited 96-can capacity and higher energy use trade off against its small footprint and quiet operation. Perfect for small households or apartments needing a dedicated beverage station.
EdgeStar BWC121SS delivers an exceptionally low 38°F temperature and holds up to 105 cans in a compact 19-inch wide design, backed by ETL/UL certification. It lacks Energy Star efficiency and needs ample ventilation space. Best for home bars or rec rooms where cold beverage storage is priority.
