Nice fridge, but inspect before plugging in
Fridge arrived with no damage to the box or outside of the unit. The only problem was that the compressor either was not bolted properly at the factory or it worked loose during shipping. I had to remount it and tighten everything up before plugging it in.
It runs quite and gets quite cold. I recommend it overall but make sure you inspect it right away when you get it.

Waste of money
I received this product on a Thursday and am returning it the next Friday. It worked well for about 3 hours, and then it shut down completely. It would not work, even after the "re-set" prescribed by Sanyo. Perhaps I received a "lemon", but I will not be purchasing another Sanyo product.
UPS did not pick up the item as they said they would. Moreover, Amazon's initial response to my inquiry to assist me in getting the item returned through UPS or another carrier bordered on stupid.

Loud
I bought this mini fridge for my office because it was affordable and had the functionality I was looking for. Many of the reviews describe it as "quiet" and produces only a "light hum" that can barely be heard.
In my opinion it is really loud. The first problem is that the motor starts to run every 7 minutes or so for a duration of 3 minutes. This is assuming that you don't open the door at all. The hum is a distraction to me while I am at my desk and I share an office with another employee and he has already complained about the noise also.
I would not recommend this for office use. The actual temperature is fine and it keeps drinks and food cool enough. It is just too loud.
