8 Best Tiny House Refrigerators for 2023

This bottom freezer refrigerator is designed to be built into your cabinetry — they can blend in seamlessly  and have a high-end look. This one from Summit Appliance has a sleek stainless-steel design, and has  plenty of useful features, including adjustable spill-proof glass shelves, large crisper drawers with  humidity controls, and fridge and freezer boost controls that can cool each one down more quickly after  being opened. 

This model is thinner than many other kitchen fridges, too, so it’ll be easier to fit into your floor plan — you don’t need to sacrifice fridge space just because you’re working with a smaller kitchen. It’s on the  pricier end of the spectrum, but if you’re ready to invest, you probably won’t regret it.

If you’re looking for a well-rounded small fridge for your tiny home that has plenty of space for food, but  doesn’t take up too much kitchen space, consider this choice from Galanz. It’s a freestanding fridge with  swing doors and bright internal lighting, and there’s a spacious freezer on the top. It also runs pretty  quietly compared to other fridges, so you won’t be kept up all night listening to a loud hum. The glass  shelves are adjustable to accommodate different foods and drinks, which is helpful.  

This fridge is relatively energy efficient, too, and uses a low energy consumption compressor. Bonus: it  also has a fun retro design, and you can choose from four different color options, like white, blue, or a  vibrant red. You can also choose from five different sizes, so it’s easy to match this fridge to your kitchen.

Many off-grid tiny homes will require some creative power solutions, and propane fridges are a great  choice for anyone who can’t supply enough electrical power to their kitchen. If you’re wondering about  the ignition and the interior lights, they’re powered by battery. This fridge is perfect for cabins and lake  houses, too, and it has a stylish design that’ll look great in most kitchens.  

This fridge is decently spacious with 8 cubic feet capacity in total, and the glass shelves inside are  adjustable, so you can configure it to best suit your needs — you won’t need to struggle to fit large  bottles in your fridge anymore. 

Here’s a great mini fridge to consider if you don’t have the room for (or just don’t want) a full-sized one.  You can either install it as a freestanding fridge or under a counter if you’d prefer to save some space in  your kitchen. It’s designed for drinks (storing up to 117 12 oz. cans!) but since the shelves are all  adjustable, you can move them around to make room for your food, too. 

Don’t feel limited to just installing it in your kitchen, either. The reversible doors and sleek design make it  easy to install anywhere in your home, like in a living room, game room, garage, den or basement. Fresh  drinks will always be cool and ready. 

For those very tight on kitchen space, here’s a space saving fridge from Costway that will fit neatly into  most setups. It’ll keep all your drinks and a small amount of food cold and fresh, and there’s still a freezer  for storing meat or your favorite ice cream. You’ll also find a full shelf, small shelf, and a crisper in there,  so there’s lots of storage options. 

Be warned, this fridge is only for those that know they have a small space. If you’re an avid cook, though, and tend to store lots of fresh food in your home, you might want to spring  for one of the larger fridges listed here — if you have enough space for one. 

This is a very small fridge, but that might be exactly what you’re looking for. It can be used for small items  from cans of soda to skincare, and while it’s definitely not large enough to store foods to cook, it’s  portable and great to travel with. You can also store it neatly on a countertop, to save space elsewhere,  then bring it on the road stocked with snacks.  

Also fun: it comes in a variety of lively colors, and you can also use it to warm your foods up to 140  degrees Fahrenheit. Any way that you use it, it’s energy efficient and environmentally friendly since  there’s no freon used to cool things, which you might find in other portable mini fridges or air  conditioners.

If you’re worried about power consumption and want an efficient fridge, choose an Energy Star-certified  model like this one from GE Appliances. It’ll save you money and energy in the long run, without  sacrificing any quality. It’s also built with temperature controls on the front, so it’s easy to change the  temperature for both the fridge and freezer. 

Inside the fridge, you’ll find movable racks so it’s easy to adjust based on the size of your food items, and  the LED lighting has a more natural looking light, which can help you spot which fruits and vegetables  need to be used up first.

With a fridge like this Whirlpool model, you won’t need to open the fridge door to get filtered water and  fresh ice. This has the most storage on this list, but also uses the most power and takes up the most  room, so it’s great for tiny home owners who love to cook and are going to dedicate plenty of space to  their kitchen.  

Inside the unit is a smart temperature management system that senses and adapts the temperature to  make the perfect environment for whatever’s in there, and most of the bins inside are adjustable so you  can make all your food and packages fit properly.
