Heinrich’s Drinks Fridge 45L: what works, what doesn't?
What works well
- Nearly silent: the fridge works very quietly and so also suits living and working rooms where peace is important
- Economical at 80 kWh: at around 80 kWh a year it is among the more frugal devices in its class and is kind to the household budget
- 45 L volume: decent room for drinks and snacks, more than the usual 15 L mini fridges
- Slim design: the space-saving build fits well in small flats, the office or next to the desk
Points of criticism
- Sparse product details: the manufacturer gives hardly any concrete specs such as temperature range or dimensions, so much stays open before buying
- Designed as a pure drinks cooler: the small cooling compartment is tailored to drinks and snacks and less meant for organised food storage
- Smaller brand: Heinrich’s is little widespread, so warranty and service questions are harder to judge than with large manufacturers

Build quality & everyday use
What carries the Heinrich’s Drinks Fridge 45L in everyday use: nearly silent (the fridge works very quietly and so also suits living and working rooms where peace is important) and economical at 80 kWh (at around 80 kWh a year it is among the more frugal devices in its class and is kind to the household budget). We have to be honest about the weaknesses: sparse product details. The manufacturer gives hardly any concrete specs such as temperature range or dimensions, so much stays open before buying.
If you set the device up to save space, allow ventilation clearance of at least 5 cm at the sides and 10 cm at the rear, otherwise the compressor may overheat.
