It arrived as promised and scheduled, the delivering agent, pleasant and helpful. Then it waited 5 days to open up for me. This is actually bigger inside than I thought it would be. After installing in my Motor Home and letting it rest comfortably in it's new home for a day or two I plugged it in, and fired it up. Then I mowed the lawn, after which I enjoyed a NW IPA while I admired my skill with a John Deere, then checked the new refer. Set on 3 it's going to keep Rocky Road frozen and, more importantly a all my NW IPA's nicely chilled. BUT, for this next I can only **** like it.

I was concerned when reading some of the reviews for this unit, When it was delivered I noticed a few minor bumps on the box, having spent 20 years in LTL freight p/u&d there was nothing worth noting on the DR. When I opened it I found some very minor dents in the black panel door and sides that did not match the bumps on the box, I could live with them. But I remembered one review mentioned significant damage down low. Low and behold the left rear corner of the refer was mangled and had bent the roll-out wheel to the point of making it hard to level, lucky for me I have a hammer. Somewhat disappointed I beat it into "level" with the hammer, then left it alone for the two days before plugging it in.

I have to agree with some of the reviews that speculated these are possibly factory damaged seconds. Mine looks like it may have been dropped on that corner or poked with fork-lift then boxed. It seems to work fine and because it is inside a closed space only the small ding on the door is seen.

End result, I Like It. I paid a quarter of what it would cost to replace the Dual Fuel, smaller, authorized replacement, and the shipping was free. If I had bought for my house it would be in the game room in a dark corner beside the bar and NOT in the 5000k lit kitchen. Cheers!

Arrived really well packaged, and in pristine condition. Works Well. Good Door seal. Its worth noting that mine arrived with 4 door shelves that covered the width of the door and not the small shelves pictured. All of the shelves are removable and the third shelf down has a slightly lower repositioning option if desired. It is NOT AUTO DEFROST. And has a somewhat quirky characteristic of forming frost on the inside rear wall of the refrigerator section, when the compressor is on, this then melts and is channeled away down a small hole when the compressor is off. Called a Cycle Defrost. The freezer section will require a manual defrost too. All in all the Avanti is good package for the $349 i paid for it at time of purchase. I see now that it is listed at $454 currently. I would, frankly, have been far less happy at this price point as I feel the overall build quality, while far from being poor, does not warrant a cost in excess of my original purchase cost.

Its has not yet been running 24hts, and is already very cold. If the energy star rating is accurate, it is a great little energy efficient unit.
Didn't get 5 stars from me because I would have preferred a little bit more freezer, even at the expense of a little bit less fridge

At 7.4 Cubic its OK. A 9.9 Cubic is a more realistic size IMHO. But for what it is, and how it does it. It seems to be an excellent little unit.

Delivered in a timely Manner with no dents in the doors. Replaced Dometic fridge that I had multiple problems with. I installed fridge in same hole and had to put 5" board on top and two 3/4" boards on side and trim with oak 2 1/8" casing on sides and top. I used bottom trim off Dometic for the bottom, which helped hold down the front of fridge and covered legs. The fridge ran and stayed cold perfectly, until I reversed the doors. Then I started having a problem with frost build up on the back wall inside the fridge, and the compressor ran constantly. I called Avanti support and they gave me a confirmation # and said they would send a service technician. Never heard from them again. I read online of people having the same problem with frost and checked the gaskets for fit. The left side gasket was not sealing and letting air out, so I took off the doors and refit them by leaving the middle hinge washer, shaped like a pointing finger, out from behind the hinge causing the door to fit tighter. Now it runs perfect again. I have an older Avanti fridge in garage that has run for several years with no problems,

The only dislike would be not being told the correct delivery time frame when ordering. It said the 8th but really came on the 15th. Someone must be home of course to sign, but it went great

This is the perfect size spare refrigerator to store containers, cans, etc in the garage and free up space from our fridge.
It was the second purchase, first came badly damaged from a different vendor (not Amazon related) so we decide to go with Amazon and get this one, a little more expensive and be done with it. The top plate arrived loose, and you could tell there was little damage done to one corner. The package was not damaged at all, but it looked like this item had been packaged before (maybe someone else received it like this and decided to return it, I don't know). At that point, we were done with returning and waiting, so we decided to keep it and it work well. I am not sure how easy it will be to defrost, especially since the top freezer section has the bottom flat, I am not sure if water will start coming down while defrosting, but other than that it works just fine. It is also very quiet, it does not matter to us, but if you have it in the kitchen it will be fine. It was easy to adjust the level according to our floor to prevent stuff from rolling out when you open the door. Overall good purchase and again, the damage was not reported, I only mention it because someone should evaluate returned product for damage to prevent such issues.
