FYI. Costco in Halifax (Dartmouth doesn't still have them) has the 4.4cu Ft Sainless danby's without freezer. Not amazing but half decent deal for these. I had one before will handle 2 Corney's and a 5lb Co2 tank, just picked one up.

yeah the $118 one looks like the kind you would have to bend the freezer out of the way.

You can indeed fit a Corny in here. This is the fridge I built my Kegerator out of. It will hold one, but would be a serious PITA to build a collar to fit a second. It fits a 5G corny and 15# C02 no problem.

Good to know. I want at least room for two.

Thanks

I got the one from Costco ... comfortable fits two plus the five pound CO2.

For the Costco fridge it looks like Danby has changed the way it makes these fridges slightly. On the old version the door gasket screwed in place and was all that held the door panel in place, which made it very easy to remove.

On these new ones, the door panel is glued and molded into place (filled with spray foam). I ended up having to cut it apart rather then simply removing it, in the end it didn't turn out too too bad but I just thought I'd post so someone else doesn't get surprised. At least there is still no coils in the top of the fridge

@AllanMar: That explains why I can't find any screws in the fridge I just picked up from Costco. Looks a bit more of a pain than I was expecting, but nothing too bad.

I had to do that with my fridge, bit of a pain but easy to do. BUt I wonder if I ever want to cover the panel to clean it up, as I still have exposed foam, how difficult it will be.

Anyone know the price of the Costco rig and if it will fit 2 corny's and a 10pounder?

I've got an almost brand new Coors Light Mini fridge that has the big freezer that I'd have to bend out of the way... I'm hesitant to do so because I'd likely snap the coolant line and end up with a big Coor's light paper weight.

$159 as I recall. I doubt you could get a 10lb in there, the tank has to sit on the compressor shelf.
