Schmick Upright Bar Fridge, 440L
Buyers who want black or white to match the room, without changing the spec underneath
Anyone stocking cans in bulk who wants a genuine indoor upright, not a repurposed drinks fridge

The owner's insights on the Upright Bar Fridge, 440L
The Schmick 440L is a tall upright bar fridge holding 428 cans across 6 adjustable shelves, with a switchable heated glass door and a choice of black or white cabinet, left or right hinge.
We put these into sheds, garages and dedicated bar rooms that want serious can capacity in one tall cabinet, rather than a repurposed drinks fridge. All four finish combinations, black or white with either hinge side, sit at the same price, so the choice comes down to what matches the room and which way you want the door to swing.
It stands 1996mm tall on 4 adjustable feet, so it isn't the right fit for a low ceiling or a tight doorway; check both before you order. It's rated for indoor use only, so it isn't a candidate for an alfresco or outdoor installation.
The heated glass element clears condensation in humid weather and switches off the rest of the time to save power, and 6 height-adjustable shelves mean the layout can change with what's being stocked.
Why you'll love the Upright 440L
428 cans, one door
A tall single-door cabinet holds 428 standard cans across 6 adjustable, heavy-duty chromed shelves, built for genuine bulk storage.
Black or white, left or right
Available in a black or white cabinet, each with a left or right hinge option, so the finish and door swing both match the room.
Heated glass, switched on when you need it
The glass door has a switchable heated element that clears condensation in humid weather, and can be switched off the rest of the time to save power.
6 adjustable shelves
Six heavy-duty chromed shelves adjust in height, rather than sitting fixed, so the layout can change with what's being stocked.
Polished stainless interior
A polished stainless steel interior cleans up easily and reflects the switchable blue or white LED strip lighting.
Lockable door, adjustable feet
The door locks to keep contents secure, and 4 adjustable feet let the unit sit level on an uneven garage or shed floor.
Why you should consider a Schmick fridge
Every Schmick fridge in this range, this one included, runs on ozone-safe R600a refrigerant with cyclopentane-foamed insulation, and carries 2 years parts and labour warranty that My Acre manages directly, extendable to 3 years total for $238.
