Ahh, the mini fridge—the holy grail of every dorm room. While mini fridges may instantly bring us back to college, they're also useful in small spaces or as extra storage for beverages, from your favorite beers and canned cocktails to bubbly hard seltzers and thirst-quenching coconut waters. But, finding a good mini fridge worth the investment can be tricky, which is why we researched and hand-picked the very best. With these options, you'll never have to worry about running low on fridge space—or being without an ice-cold beverage—ever again.
