Score: 70/100Rankings
The RCA RFR835 is a compact 3.2 cu ft two-door fridge with ENERGY STAR efficiency, a reversible door, and a separate freezer compartment.

The Frigidaire EFR376-BLACK is a 3.2 cu ft retro-style mini fridge featuring a built-in bottle opener and adjustable shelving.

Professional reviewers emphasize the unit’s ENERGY STAR rating and low annual energy consumption of 323 kWh as standout efficiency points. They also commend the automatic defrost system and the flexibility of a reversible door combined with a separate freezer compartment, noting these features set it apart from many basic mini‑fridges. However, reviewers point out the limited capacity and absence of ice‑making or smart controls as trade‑offs.
There is little publicly available user feedback in the sources, so consumer sentiment cannot be fully assessed. The limited data suggests that users who prioritize space-saving and energy efficiency appreciate the model, while the lack of ice-maker and small capacity are common concerns.
Professional editors acknowledge the Frigidaire EFR376-BLACK's attractive retro styling, adjustable shelving, and built-in bottle opener as strong points, while noting its lack of Energy Star efficiency, missing interior light and safety features, and the need to verify its relatively large footprint before purchase.
Everyday users love the fridge's looks, compact size, and convenient bottle opener, praising its reliable cooling for drinks; however, they commonly complain about inconsistent dimensions, a tiny freezer, manual defrost, and challenges with online registration and warranty support.
