# Mickey Mouse-Branded Fridges The Smeg x Mickey Mouse Fab28 Refrigerator is Perfect for Disney Fans By Katherine Pendrill | Published 2019-11-13 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smeg-x-mickey-mouse References: [delish](https://www.delish.com/kitchen-tools/cookware-reviews/a29667810/smeg-limited-edition-mickey-mouse-fridge/) The Smeg x Mickey Mouse Fab28 refrigerator is the ultimate kitchen accessory for Disney fans. Last year, Smeg decided to celebrate its 70th birthday and Mickey Mouse's 90th anniversary with 90 Mickey-themed refrigerators. The mouse adorned fridges sold out quickly, so the brand decided to bring the appliance back for 2019. Available exclusively from Williams Sonoma, the fridges feature a retro white design. The front of the fridge is decorated with a vintage black and white Mickey cartoon that makes it look as though the character is reaching for the fridge handle. Despite the retro design, the Smeg x Mickey Mouse Fab28 refrigerator boasts Energy Star efficiency and a Life Plus drawer inside that helps to keep things extra cool and prevent spoilage. There are also three adjustable glass shelves, two drawers, a glass crisper cover, and a freezer compartment.
