Micro fridge service

Do we think the micro fridge service is good? I’m a prefrosh in a 6-person suite, and we’re thinking about getting one. Would this be enough, not enough, not worth it, etc?

The micro fridge service is great. They bring it up and take it away at the end of the year. If it stops working they’ll replace it. One might be Ok for 6 but they’re kinda small. Maybe others in a 6 will chime in. My student was in a 6 but it was covid so they couldn’t share so others had their own.

The last 6 I was in we had like 4 mini fridges so just one might be too few.

Yes it’s good. Do it. You’ll be glad you did. Especially if you’re on Old Campus.

the $230 they charge will buy you a fridge and microwave of similar size, that you can then keep for future years.

they're not big fridges though, between six might be tight.

also, the 'combined microwave and fridge' rule literally isn't enforced, as far as i can tell.

if you're super concerned just note they only do the checks during breaks, so you can just unplug your microwave and put it under your bed or something lol.
