This is the first time I've been disappointed by a Westinghouse product. The fridge has a very similar internal size to my previous one, but the actual fridge storage is so small it's frustrating. The freezer is - comparatively - massive. It's almost 1/3 the size of the whole fridge. The built-in manual ice storage is cute, and thoughtful, but if it came down to adding another shelf in the fridge section, I'd have picked the extra shelf. Same goes for the full-size crisper. It's the same size crisper as found in much bigger fridges - again, taking up an extraordinarily large amount of space in a small fridge. It's a small fridge - it needs a small crisper, not one designed for a full sized fridge and thrown in here to save money. The door storage is flexible - you're able to move the pieces around, but without removing some completely there's room for 1 2 litre bottle of milk, and maybe a 1 litre bottle of something else, if it's OK to sit partially sideways. A 2 litre Coke or Pepsi bottle just won't fit properly. And then, the shelving. Fabulous to have glass shelves, especially when the world is moving to full plastics. They clean better, they don't warp and they're tougher. But you can also barely fit anything in them, especially with the extra "cool zone" at the top of the fridge. There is literally room to squeeze a 1 litre milk sideways in the top shelf, the next one down is about the same depth, and the "big" space between the bottom shelf and the crisper will fit a 2 litre bottle or two, but almost nothing else besides. If you live on frozen dinners and vegetables from your crisper - go for it. But if you like to collect a range of condiments, or want to be able to reach past one item to get to another, this isn't the fridge for you. The crisper and freezer are full-sized components from much larger models in the Westinghouse range, and they frankly take up way too much space in a tiny ~200 litre fridge. The additional "cool zone" at the top of the fridge section is a pain in a fridge this size - it's designed for deli items and yoghurts and such - and has a sliding base with a flip-up-lid. But if you forget to close it properly, it wedges the main door open, or, breaks the cool zone door. I actually think it works better without the door on it... functionally, if not as a refrigerator zone. The door storage is also really tight. The pieces are movable and removable, but even with everything squished up, I get one 2 litre bottle of milk, and a half-sideways bottle of something else. That's it. Soft drinks/wine/whatever else has to go in the body of the fridge, which means there's almost no room - two *really* close together (a fist height) shelves - to store *everything* else in your shopping. The magnets in the door are also really light. I constantly find myself touch-checking the temperature of everything because there's no comforting "pull" feeling as you open the door. Some might think that's an advantage. Up to you. The door - both main and freezer - are really well-weighted when the fridge is properly installed level. The doors swing closed, but don't slam. Perfect. The glass shelves are really appreciated - especially having to jam stuff in, they at least don't break like plastic ones do. The fridge's only problems come from it being the baby in the range, and it's got big brother's freezer, crisper, and cool-zone to pack into a much, much smaller package. And it makes the fridge really, really, really unpopular. And I'm a single person. This fridge would cause fights between housemates, and wars in families because you'd be shopping every day. The "extras" means it can't do its main job - being a fridge - well enough to warrant the cost. If you don't keep much stuff in your fridge, eat mostly vegetables and items from the deli, and have a real thing for frozen dinners - this is perfect. But if you like to cook, and keep ingredients and leftovers, this is not the fridge you want. I've had this coming up on 2 years now, and I'm ready to change up to something with less bells and whistles and more actual storage.

I previously owned a Westinghouse RJ212T-R*7 model refrigerator which was superseded by this one. It lasted 23 years which says something about the way it was built. Naturally some things were changed as the new model is not as internally spacious as the previous one. However, it's a great refrigerator and I hope it will also last as long as its predecessor.

I transitioned to a one-bedroom unit and sought a compact fridge when I discovered this gem at Appliances Online. With their insightful advice, the convenience of viewing options online, and the supportive online conversation, I was inspired to choose Appliances Online.
