Score: 71/100Rankings
The Midea WHS-65LB1 is a 1.6 cu ft compact fridge with a reversible door, separate freezer and ENERGY STAR efficiency. Its trade-offs include manual defrost and limited interior shelving. Best suited for dorms, small apartments or office break rooms needing a tiny freezer.
The Whynter BR-1211DS is a freestanding beverage refrigerator with a 1 cu ft interior, digital touch-screen control, and five adjustable shelves, capable of storing up to 136 cans. Its sizable dimensions, higher power draw, and limited user feedback are potential drawbacks. Suitable for home bars or offices needing extensive can storage.

TechReviewer and Vocal Media both acknowledge the Midea WHS-65LB1 as a well-designed ultra-compact fridge that delivers solid energy efficiency and quiet operation. They appreciate the reversible door and the inclusion of a small freezer, which are uncommon in this size segment. However, they note the modest storage volume and the need for manual defrost as trade-offs for its compact footprint.
