The lower the temp the warmer it is. The fridge seems to run very cold so a 2/3 setting should help.

Yes, setting "1" is the warmest, and "5" is the coldest. I keep ours at about 3, and it does not freeze items in the refrigerator. There is a film of ice in the freezer compartment.

Mine has run at 60 degrees F with no problems. At temperatures below 64 it will go into periodic defrost mode which will prevent freeze-up. The operator's manual states that the unit will operate in temps down to 41 F. The manual says if the room temp remains below 41 F, the machine should be switched off.

I have actually called EdgeStar on this very issue. Our unit was not cooling on the left side. It seems the issue I had was that the fan would not run unless I turned the interior light on. However, when I did this the fan ran non-stop which caused temperature issues with the right side. Edgestar offers two options within the first year...send the whole unit in and pay for shipping or have a technician service the unit and then request warranty parts from Edgestar. So far we have done neither. The fan should start and stop as the desired temperature is met. Please respond if you've had any success in resolving. We are on the brink of getting a new fridge.

it sounds like the temperature control in your fridge is stuck at 58 deg. my fridge temp adjusts to what I set to.

OK!! I agree with other answers...Just have to experiment...and YES it will freeze if set too low..I have two of these fridges /same model/different source. They are VERY different. Interior set up is different and thermostat works better on one than other...All in all they are really cute and do a great job for chilling beverages. Warning...small children think they are child size toys!!

If you're also pouring the mixture in pre-chilled, then the machine may be shot. I got my first one of these freezers just before last Christmas. It made two batches just fine and then the freezing mechanism in the base stopped working. Cuisinart replaced the unit (I had to pay shipping both ways) so I'm giving them one more chance as it's a sweet little machine when it works. Good luck.

I put it in the freezer and nothing happened. It did not turn cold at all. I am very disappinted with this product.

I bought 5. That way I could cycle them through the dry ice and they would get cold enough. I don't recall any mention of temperature in the directions. And the thermometer that I bought didn't work well with taking the caps temperature, so I just winged it. It was not perfect, I did lose hair, but I kept enough that most people didn't notice. Best wishes!

Dunno. Is it a fridge? If so buy it at your risk.. . My LG big expensive double door.. has a major design flaw. The cold air recirculation vents in the deep freeze are too small, so that it rapidly, in a couple of weeks, ices up. The auto-defroster cannot handle it. The circulation fan starts clunking as it hits the ice buildup behind the deepfreezer. . I have to do a manual defrost. I have cut the holess much bigger and it's better, but still needs a manual defrost. This last time I made the holes enormous, so lets see if that helps. If I just left it alone, and not manual defrosted, the deice sensor burns out and and that costs $$$. It has already burnt out 2, thats why I have to fiddle with it. Maybe LG just churn out new product and hope for the best, with little or no testing. If somebody gave me an LG fridge as a present, I would refuse it!!

I don't know the lowest, I have never set it below 36 F. I use one in my shop to keep things from freezing.

Wife say it needs to be real cold then it should work as it came out of the fridge then start pressing it on the cake as it starts to warm up good luck

I cannot be exactly sure without examining your fridge, but it was the part that corrected our problem. When we turned our fridge on the temperature would come down, but never get as cold as it should. The problem was intermittent and hard to diagnose. We used an appliance website to help us "trouble shoot" the issue, tried various parts and eventually this worked. We ordered from Amazon because the price was cheaper. If you order this, just make sure whether you need the little white corded thermistor (as pictured) for your model or not. They make one that comes without it also. Hope this helps!

I wish I could help you. My Danby is in an office and keep milk very cold, but temps here don't get above 74. Before I bought my unit, I did see some other reviews where the owners kept the fridge in a garage or workshop and none complained about temp. But again, I wouldn't know from personal experience. Good luck!!

Yes it does show the current temperature, the target temperature can be adjusted depending on what you want. The second you turn on the machine it's cold. The lowest temperature reading on the unit is 61 degrees. It's quite chilly if you let it run for about 1 hour. The room will freeze.

No, nor would I buy it again! It has a manual temperature controller that never worked. From day one! I have a digital thermometer in the unit and can't get it to 53 degrees, I would highly suggest another unit. Danby apparently makes good products, but missed the mark by a mile on this one. Of I could exchange it, I would but it's too late for me as I tried to get it to fit my needs. If you are just storing beer, I would buy a mini fridge and be done with it. Good luck and I hope this helps you!

The lowest you can set it is 45 degrees. I normally set mine so that it doesn't get colder than 58 degrees but I set it down as low as I could upon getting your question and it would not go any lower than 45, it stopped going down.
