Lowest on Slickdeals was $399 this year
I have this one. You get what you pay for, the top shelf in the refrigerator always freezes whatever is there, making it unusable for most items. Ruined a lot of produce that way.
It's around $700 at Home Depot and Best Buy.

I have this. It's an ok, no frills fridge. I bought back in Feb ($620) for as a cheap fridge that I'll sell with the house. I have 2 issues with it. One, the stainless steel does not match normal stainless steel, so if you don't have a whirlpool dishwasher and stove to match you will notice the difference. Two, the back of the fridge gets too cold and stuff freezes back there.

It has no ice maker or water features, but I was ok with that because this was a 2nd fridge for my house.

Quite a deal for a refrigerator that is "worth" $950.
Lol.

Thirded. I bought this as a featureless second fridge but was surprised at how poorly it does basic fridge functions. Another problem I've observed is that closing the fridge door can pop open the freezer door a little. If you aren't careful it may not reclose and you'll end up with condensation in your freezer at best and ruined frozen food at worst.

Any thoughts on this as a beer fridge eventually converted to a kegerator?

Searched the Q&A for this model on Home Depot's website and according to Whirlpool it is not an official "garage ready" refrigerator. When searching the manual it says it should be operated in temperatures between 55 and 110 degrees (preferred is between 60 and 90).
For me, my garage falls within the operating range for most of the year. I'm more concerned about temps 90-100 than I am 40-55 so I'm going to put it in there but it'll depend on your climate and garage.

LED Lighting …..and new improved aerodynamic door handles.

Aerodynamic?! You putting wheels on this, taking it for a spin?

My garage is more of 10-120 range. Texas weather, it gets crazy.

I was jesting about it being 2023 and they are Headlining LED Lighting.

Sort like a father bragging about his daughter having two ears.

No, I'd say it makes a pretty good beer and ice fridge.

maybe after the first time or two you don't put your produce there and then you don't have to worry about it freezing and getting ruined? I blame you for that..
