Q. Can mini fridges catch fire?
A.Yes, mini fridges can catch fire, but it’s rare. Electrical malfunctions are the most common cause. Bad wiring or short circuits can lead to fires. If something goes wrong inside the fridge, like with the compressor or wiring, sparks may occur. This can cause a fire. If the coil or vents in the fridge haven't been cleaned, it raises the risk for overheating; this can even cause a mini-fridge fire in extreme circumstances. The last thing is the improper use of a mini fridge—the overloading and locating it anywhere near flammable materials. The appliance requires that it be put on a stable and leveled surface and must have proper ventilation to avoid overheating. The risk can be reduced by always selecting a good quality, certified mini fridge and regularly checking for signs of wear or electrical issues. If the fridge is damaged or has any unusual signs, it is best to replace it.
