I’m setting up a corner of my basement in Fargo as a game room for long Verge-RPG sessions, and I want to keep drinks nearby without hauling coolers up and down the stairs. A 24-inch, 180-can beverage refrigerator seems like the right size for the space I have, and I like that it would fit under a counter. My uncertainty is noise, since it would sit close to where we play and talk for hours, and I don’t want a compressor humming through quiet scenes. I’m also wondering how evenly these units cool a full load of cans, and whether a 180-can claim is realistic once shelves and spacing are accounted for. I found some third-party specs and owner comments online, but nothing definitive about sound levels or real capacity. For those who keep a beverage fridge in a room where people gather, is the noise noticeable during conversation, and does the can count hold up in practice?
