An outdoor refrigerator has a sealed, rust-resistant cabinet and a compressor sized to hold its setting in summer heat. Some carry a UL, ETL or CSA listing for outdoor use; the rest are sold as outdoor units on the maker’s word alone. Each product page says which.
Outdoor units are scored on price per cubic foot rather than per can, so food refrigerators and drinks fridges compare on the same scale. The temperature factor rewards a cold lowest setting and a high rated ambient temperature, and the features factor counts the outdoor listing, 304 or 316 stainless, a key lock, front venting for a built-in install, a reversible door and a water-resistance rating.
Check the maker’s ambient range before choosing a spot. Some makers ask for a covered or well-ventilated spot, and a unit rated to 90 F will struggle on an open patio in a hot climate.
