An Academic Problem — Solved


MicroFridge® Safe Plug™ technology was designed in response to a university dilemma. As students started to bring microwaves and refrigerators into their residence hall rooms, electrical circuits began to overload, causing serious problems at many academic institutions. Learning of this problem, the founder of MicroFridge® set out to solve it, and as a result, the innovative MicroFridge® combination appliance with Safe Plug™ was created.

MicroFridge® with its patented Safe Plug™ technology has several benefits that include:

  • No need for special wiring, even in older buildings.
  • Unit operates with electrical draw of 10 - 12 amps.
  • One-plug-to-the-wall operation.
  • Reduced potential for electrical fires.
  • Energy-efficient operation.
  • Promotes safe storage and re-heating of food in students' rooms.
  • Compact design saves space.
