The Schmick Lest We Forget is a premium upright bar fridge offering quiet operation and excellent energy efficiency at a competitive price point. Its triple-glazed glass door, adjustable shelving, and locking mechanism make it well-suited for entertaining spaces, though the lack of castors and non-reversible door limit flexibility in some settings.

Overview

At $1,397, this Schmick model sits slightly above the category average of $1,332, but delivers superior value through lower running costs and quieter operation. Its annual running cost of $149.74 substantially undercuts the category average of $188/yr, saving approximately $38 per year. The 41 dB noise level edges below the average of 42.0 dB, making it a genuinely quiet performer that justifies its premium positioning.

Where You Can Use It

Indoor

Suitable

At 41dB, this is one of the quieter bar fridges on the market — you can comfortably run it in a kitchen, living area, or home office without it becoming background noise you notice.

Outdoor

Not Rated

This fridge is rated for indoor use only. If you need something for an outdoor area, look for a model rated for alfresco or outdoor use. It doesn't have heated glass either, so even in a warm indoor spot you may see some condensation on the glass door during humid weather.

Bottom Line

The Schmick Lest We Forget offers compelling value for quality-conscious buyers seeking a quiet, efficient bar fridge for entertainment or hospitality use, particularly if the fixed left-hinge and stationary installation suit your space. The superior running costs and below-average noise level justify the slight premium over category averages.
