Ford Adds a Fridge to the Flex

Ford has upped the ante in the options department by offering drivers of the 2009 Flex a $760 refrigerator upgrade that fits snugly underneath the armrest in the back seat. The fridge isn't huge, but it can hold seven 12-ounce cans (no, not beer) or four half-liter bottles—which is not bad for a road trip. It is also runs off a compressor making it a bona fide refrigerator that can take a drink from room temperature down to 41 degrees Fahrenheit in two- and-a-half hours. If you choose the freezer option, the temperature drops to a frigid 23 degrees Fahrenheit. With any luck, Ford will offer a Flex oven and Flex toilet option sometime in the near future. Then I would be ready to move in. More »

Latest by kaylix: @louv: Yep, my '87 635 has the same thing. Two seperate A/C's. And while the rear also functions as an additional A/C unit it keeps the cooler very cold, especially if you close the vents on the rear unit. It's a small more »

Your Fridge Gets the Forest Effect with Leaf Magnets

Forget fridge magnet poetry— you know you only used it to make up smutty phrases anyway—stick these fridge leaves on that boring metal door, and you'd have your own indoor forest. Granted it would be much more "lovely" if it was made of real leaves not plastic ones, but I reckon they've got a charm all of their own. Designer Richard Hutten created them for office ceilings in a Rotterdam museum, and now they're being commercialised. No word on pricing or availability yet. [Dezeen]

Backpack Fridge For High-Tech Picnic Action

Coolers get the job done, but you have to deal with ice and the fact that the bulky boxes are often awkward to carry. I'm lazy, which means that I want to get my beer from point A to point B as easily as possible (and I'm not willing to ride a Cruzin Cooler to do it.) The "Boxcooler" concept from designer Sebastian Bertram offers a stylish solution with a backpack cooled by refrigeration. More »

USB Mini Fridge And Heater

This USB Geek mini fridge and heater may look like the USB mini fridge we've seen before, but it's got a whole 100% more functionality—namely, heating. Not only can you keep your already chilled drinks from warming up slightly slower, it does the same thing in reverse for hot drinks. If only all our gadgets could perform their functions in reverse, we'd be able to blow the dust in our living room instead of just sucking it. [USBGeek]

Asko's Home Pub Fridge is a Fridge for Real Men

The inventor of the HomePub, a fridge freezer with built-in draught beer system, is, it goes without saying, a genius. Designed with special people in mind, the kind who like to pour beer on their cornflakes or drink their coffee with beer and two sugars, there's designated space for two five-liter kegs.

Electrolux nFridge Modular Concept

We showed you the modular kitchen. Here's a modular fridge. You know what's smart about its design? When you open up the door to get your beer, you don't let the cold air out in more than one itty bitty compartment. Also, things don't get buried under packs of old bologna, since each box is a shelf. But are you ever going to be able to store the Thanksgiving turkey inside just one cube? More »

LG Booze Fridge: Probably Not Their Branding

I once wanted a kegerator, but since leaving college/having my dreams crushed, my tastes have changed. The LG Booze Fridge (my name) is a nice balance between yuppie style and collegiate values. More »
