If you NEED to transport on its side, 24-48 hrs seems to be the recommend time to let it settle before plugging it in.
Community Reviews
This 7.5 cubic foot Frigidaire is best as a compact second fridge for drinks or a small household, with several reports of solid everyday cooling and easy pickup. It can fit in a mid-size SUV with the seats down, and the stainless-look finish and small footprint make it practical for basements or garages. The main cautions are shipping damage, very thin outer metal, and temperature quirks that can freeze items near the back wall. It also lacks an ice maker, so the water hookup is not meant for use. It is a useful space-saving fridge if you can inspect it carefully on arrival.
Store pickup can reduce shipping dents and the unit can arrive looking great when picked up quickly.
Letting the refrigerator settle upright for several hours can help after transport, and waiting 24-48 hours before plugging it in can be safer when transported on its side.
The refrigerator can work well as a second beverage fridge for years, including replacing a kegerator for some setups.
An extended warranty can add peace of mind because refrigerator compressors are hard to service.
Transporting the refrigerator on its side can risk compressor oil leaking into coolant lines, so extra settling time may be needed.
The refrigerator can freeze items near the back wall, and temperature adjustment may be difficult to get right.
Thin metal outer shells can make the unit arrive looking rough even when the box is intact.
Delivery damage can be severe, including reports of bashed compressors, bent frames, and broken hinges, and refunds may require bringing the fridge into a store.
