The SMEG FABUROR3 FAB5 is a compact refrigerator with a 1.2 cubic foot capacity, finished in orange and styled after 1950s design aesthetics. This small refrigerator includes automatic defrost, LED lighting, and adjustable shelves. It is manufactured in Italy by Smeg.
This compact refrigerator is designed for spaces where a full-size appliance is not practical, such as dorm rooms, offices, or small apartments. The 1.2 cubic foot capacity provides limited storage suitable for beverages and small food items rather than full household refrigeration needs. As a countertop or floor-standing appliance, it will require dedicated space and a standard electrical outlet. Buyers should verify that the unit's dimensions work for their intended location before purchase.
Fridge.com Expert Verdict
The Smeg — compact.
- 1.2 cu. ft. of usable storage — a compact footprint that fits tight kitchens, dorms, and offices.
- Measures 15.9″ W × 29.1″ H × 19.7″ D, so confirm your alcove and door swing before ordering.
- Currently listed at $1,599 based on the live offers above.
