Default Front Center Console Refrigerator

Ref L663 Defender 110 X, option 045CB Refrigerator ($700). Looking for any comments from members who have or have had this refrigerator option. Questions that I am exploring: Does it keep drinks cold? How many does it hold? Any failures? Worth it?

I use mine on road trips and it keeps things quite cold. It fits for average size water/soda bottles comfortably. Not something I use every day, but when I need it on a road trip, it’s very helpful and handy.

I love it. It hold 3 16 ounce pop bottle. It holds cold and does cool them. These are not like the older plastic ones that sort of hold them cool. These are metal. Love it

Love it.

Keeps at least 8 mini soda cans, easily 6 full size cans, or at least 4 mid size bottles cold on road trips. Used it to keep a gallon of ice cream cold on an hour plus long ride to family once also.

Just be aware that cans roll or slide around noisily with aggressive driving. I stuff a towel in with them.

One of our favorite options. Originally spec’d when building our Defender because my 6 year old (who would watch hours of YouTube Defender videos with me) said we needed the fridge to keep his juice boxes cold when off roading. I use it every day - almost always have some seltzer’s and clif bars inside. Great for keeping snacks and drinks cold for road trips as well. So much storage in the new Defender that I don’t miss not having the center cubby.

Our house guests love the nice cold High Noon’s when we pick them up from the airport 😆

It’s fantastic on long drives.

That’s why it’s important to use the empties to keep things from rattling around.

To the OP, I love mine and use it everyday.
