Any things I need to make sure if I want to buy a refrigerator to put
in my garage. The garage is inside the house, but it is not very well
insulated and gets pretty cold in the winter (water bottles will
freeze) and gets real hot in the summer.

I have heard that certain types of refrigerators have problems, but I
have a bunch of neighbors that have refrigerators in their garages in
my same type of house and say that they work fine.

Any hints to pick a good one? Someone once mentioned about making
sure that it had separate temperature controls for the refrig. and for
the freezer or something like that. Not sure of the details.

Friends of ours in Ohio bought a "non frostfree" fridge for the garage.
In the winter they wrap the sides and top in an electric blanket set on
"low". They've never had a problem.
