Mini-Bar Fridge Sizes
Mini-bar fridges come in several sizes to serve different purposes. A mini-bar can be used to hold beer, wine and soft drinks in an area of your home that doesn't accommodate a full-sized fridge, such as a finished basement or bedroom. Mini-bars are also common additions to dorm rooms and other small living spaces to hold both food and drinks. Does this Spark an idea?

Micro Fridge
-
The smallest mini-bar fridges are designed to accommodate six to 12 canned soft drinks or beer with dimensions around 10-by-12 inches and 8 inches deep. However, they are sometimes smaller. Micro fridges are easily portable and can often be plugged into a 12v car outlet as well as a standard AD socket. In addition to holding cans of drinks, they can be used to hold and transport other small perishable items, such as antibiotics or baby food, or to keep non-edible material, such as camera film, cool.
Compact Fridge
-
A compact refrigerator is more versatile than a micro fridge while still taking up only a small amount of space. Dimensions are generally around 20-by-18 inches and 20 inches deep. This size can hold larger bottles, such as 2-liter and 750 ml bottles of wine, as well as cans and 12-oz. bottles and a modest amount of food. Compact fridges also often have a small freezer area just large enough for one small ice tray.

Wine Fridge
-
A compact wine fridge is specially designed to hold 750 ml bottles of wine at specific temperatures. Sizes vary, but a typical 12-bottle wine fridge is about 20-by-30 inches and 20 inches deep. Unlike other refrigerators, a wine fridge has spaces to hold bottles horizontally and is rarely used to hold anything but wine, though there are wine and beverage fridges that hold both horizontal bottles of wine and smaller beverage bottles and cans. Wine fridges typically hold six, 12 or 18 bottles of wine.
Double-Door Mini Fridge
-
When you need a mini-bar fridge to do what a standard kitchen fridge does in less space, a double-door mini fridge has both a refrigerator large enough to hold 750 ml bottles, with shelves for smaller drinks and food items, and a crisper for vegetables and fruit, and a freezer, equipped with a separate door, for making ice and holding a small amount of frozen food. Double-door mini models are generally around 30-by-20 inches and 20 inches deep. Double-door mini fridges are a good choice for one-room living spaces, as well as for use in home bars or game rooms.
Party Cooler
-
A party cooler is an electric cooler that can be used indoors or outdoors and filled with cans or 12 oz. bottles of drinks. Although it is a refrigerator, it's designed with a lid that opens at the top for people to reach in and grab drinks from like a cooler. Party coolers are barrel-shaped, generally over 30 inches high with a width and diameter of about 18 inches, and can hold up to 72 beverage cans.
