The Rhino upright glass door fridge is a premium bar fridge designed for space-conscious installations, combining energy efficiency with professional aesthetics. It's a solid choice if you need shallow depth without compromising on capacity or performance.
Overview
The Rhino commands a premium price at $2297, significantly above the category average of $1329, but delivers better energy efficiency with annual running costs of $106.69 versus the category average of $188/year. Noise levels at 47 dB are moderately higher than the 42 dB average, likely due to robust compressor and cooling technology. The shallow 515mm depth is a specialised advantage for installations where standard bar fridges won't fit.

Running Costs
The Rhino is notably efficient at 1.14 kWh per day, resulting in annual running costs of just $106.69—43% lower than the category average of $188/year. This represents significant long-term savings despite the higher upfront cost, delivering payback value over 3–4 years of typical use. The EC ultra-low energy fan technology and GMCC compressor work together to minimise wasted energy while maintaining reliable performance.

Where You Can Use It
At 47dB, it's about average for noise — fine for a kitchen or garage, but you'd probably notice it in a bedroom or quiet office.
Rated for outdoor use including exposed areas. Note: this model does not include heated glass. In humid or coastal climates, you may get condensation fogging on the glass door — consider a model with heated glass if that's a concern.
Noise Level
Noticeable in a quiet room, but fine for kitchens, garages, or entertaining areas where there's ambient noise.
dB measured 1000mm from each appliance
Bottom Line
The Rhino is a premium investment for buyers needing shallow-depth cooling without sacrificing energy efficiency or commercial-grade aesthetics. Its exceptional running costs and quiet operation justify the higher purchase price if your space constraints and performance requirements align.
