EUHOMY WC-6B Mini Fridge: 40°F Minimum, Manual Defrost
The EUHOMY WC-6B is an 18-liter, compressor-cooled beverage fridge with a 40°F to 61°F range, a UV-protective door and a rated noise level under 40 dB. It suits one person who wants cold drinks in a bedroom, dorm, office or home bar, not anyone who needs to store food.
- The appeal
- Compressor cooling holds 40°F to 61°F even in warm rooms
- The catch
- Manual defrost and a 40°F minimum rule out food storage

Who is this fridge for, and who should skip it?
The EUHOMY WC-6B is a personal drinks fridge. It holds 18 liters (about 0.6 cubic feet), which EUHOMY says fits up to 24 cans. It's meant to sit on a desk, nightstand, shelf or bar top so one person can keep a day's worth of soda, seltzer, beer or a few bottles of wine within reach.
It suits students, remote workers, and anyone setting up a small bar or a bedroom drinks station, especially if noise matters to them. Skip it if you want to store food, need drinks for a group, or want a fridge you never have to defrost. The coldest setting is 40°F. That's the upper limit the USDA recommends for perishable food, so treat this as a beverage and wine cooler, not a replacement for a kitchen fridge.
What sets it apart from other mini fridges this size?
The main difference is the cooling system. Many compact drink coolers use thermoelectric (semiconductor) cooling. Those units can usually only cool to a set number of degrees below room temperature, so they struggle in a warm room. The WC-6B uses a compressor, like a full-size refrigerator. It can hold its set temperature even when the room warms up, which matters in a garage, a sunny room or an office where the heat swings through the day.
It also has a UV-protective door, which helps if the fridge sits near a window or if you store wine, since light can degrade flavor over time. On top of that, EUHOMY rates it below 40 dB, which is quiet for a compressor unit. In our video review, we called out the compressor and the low noise rating as the two features that matter most over the long run, more than the looks or the size.
What do the key specs mean in practice?
- Capacity: 18 L (0.6 cu ft). The 24-can figure assumes 330 ml cans. Standard US 12 oz cans hold 355 ml, so plan on fitting somewhat fewer, depending on how you stack them.
- Temperature range: 40°F to 61°F. 40°F is good for soda and beer, and the warmer end works for wine. You set it with one-touch digital controls.
- Noise: under 40 dB (manufacturer rating). That's a quiet-room level, reasonable for a bedroom or for video calls. Compressors cycle on and off, so expect some change in sound when it starts.
- Weight: 21.3 lb. One person can carry it up stairs or into a dorm.
- Power: 115 V. It runs on a standard US household outlet.
- Layout: one removable shelf, one door shelf, LED light. Take the shelf out to fit taller bottles.
- Door: plastic, right-hinged. The listing doesn't say whether the door can be reversed. Check this if the fridge will sit with a wall on its right side.
- Size: In our video review, we noted it's under 15 inches deep and about 11 inches wide, small enough for most desks and countertops. Confirm the exact height, width and depth on the listing before you buy, and leave space around it for ventilation.
What are the limitations and trade-offs?
- Manual defrost. Frost will build up over time. You'll need to unplug the fridge and let it melt now and then, so keep a towel handy.
- Only one shelf. Mixing cans, tall bottles and wine takes some planning, and you have few ways to rearrange the inside.
- Not cold enough for food. Because the minimum is 40°F, it's a poor choice for milk, leftovers or meal prep.
- Plastic door. It's lighter and cheaper than glass or stainless, and it may look less premium up close.
- Mixed owner feedback. It averages 4.0 out of 5 stars across 1,359 ratings. Most buyers are satisfied, but a 4.0 average means a real share of owners had problems. Read the recent low-star reviews for patterns before you order.
How does it compare with the alternatives?
Thermoelectric mini fridges are usually lighter and very quiet, but they struggle when the room is warm. If your space stays cool and steady, one may be enough. In a garage or a warm upstairs room, the WC-6B's compressor is the safer choice.
Compact 1.7 to 3.2 cu ft dorm fridges hold far more, often include a small freezer compartment and get cold enough for food. They are also much bigger and heavier and rarely fit on a desk. If you need to store snacks or leftovers, one of these makes more sense.
Glass-door wine coolers in similar sizes usually hold bottles on wire racks and show off what's inside. The WC-6B is more flexible with cans but is set up for fewer bottles.
The WC-6B sits in between: it's small and quiet, and its compressor is a real step up from thermoelectric cooling.
What about warranty and support?
The fridge is ETL certified, meaning it has been tested to North American electrical safety standards. EUHOMY includes a one-year warranty and advertises 24-hour customer service. That's standard coverage for this category. Keep your order details in case the compressor fails early, since that's the part that would cost the most to fix.
Is the EUHOMY WC-6B worth it?
We rate it 7.4 out of 10: worth it for the right buyer. In our video review, we found it does its one job well: it keeps a personal stash of drinks cold without taking over the room or keeping you awake. The compressor, the low noise rating and the UV-protective door give it real advantages over basic thermoelectric coolers. The trade-offs are manual defrosting, a single shelf, a 40°F floor that rules out food storage, and a middling 4.0-star average that calls for a look at recent owner reviews. If you want a quiet drinks fridge for a desk, bedroom or small bar, it's a sensible pick. If you need to store food or stock drinks for a crowd, look at a larger compact fridge instead.
