    We had high hopes for this fridge. It worked great for about three months. At that point we removed everything, and turned it off to wipe down the walls and clean the shelves. When turned back on, it has not worked the same since. It now can not cool past 60 degrees. We took great care of the fridge, followed all the set up requirements. Had it far enough from a wall, etc. We reached out to support. They immediately sent us to a warranty company saying they can't do anything. Was extremely unhelpful. We now don't have a working fridge. I have all my produce that's dead as a result. And we have to wait an unknown amount of time to get real help. If you are in the market for a fridge, shop elsewhere. You'll want somewhere that doesn't sell garbage and then outsource the support on it We are reconsidering our other supply needs as a result. Don't do business with companies that don't offer real support

    We purchased this unit in August 2024 for our food trailer. We bolted it to the floor in the back of the trailer opposite the fryer and 6-burner cooktop. It has performed very well even in the harshest conditions. Despite being exposed to extreme heat and frequently being opened during food service, it has held temperature very well.

Large dent on front door

1.0

The unit arrived covered entirely in cardboard, plastic and stryrofoam. I signed for it because there was no damage whatsoever to any of the packaging. After unwrapping the multiple layers of packing...I found several large dents in very noticeable areas all around it. This could only mean that the fridge was dented BEFORE it was wrapped! Completely unacceptable. Now, I'm stuck with a brand new heavily-dented fridge that I cannot return to the carrier since we signed for it. I am so frustrated that I paid good money for a brand new fridge and it looks like crap! Not the first time I have received a faulty brand new Avantco fridge either. This will be my last Avantco product I ever order! The fridge works okay, but there is a massive interior fan that takes up 8 inches of space all the way across the top.

No, reach-in refrigerators are intended for keeping cold food chilled, not chilling hot food. If you are looking for a unit to quickly chill hot food, check out our Avantco Refrigeration blast chillers.
