  • โ€ขTemperature settings are inconsistent; 3 works for the fridge, while 4 is better for the freezer.
  • โ€ขDifficulty in achieving an optimal temperature: one knob controls both the fridge and freezer, making it hard to balance.

Bottom Line

The Whirlpool WHR31TS1E is a compact and visually appealing fridge that fits well in small spaces with an efficient and surprisingly effective freezer. However, its temperature control inconsistency and single temperature knob can make it hard to balance the cooling needs of the fridge and freezer. Despite some storage limitations and minor issues, it remains a decent choice for those with small space constraints. This fridge is ideal if you're looking for durability and basic storage for dorms or small living areas but be prepared to manage the temperature settings carefully.
