This mod turns the “Chill Box 9200” into a working mini fridge. Originally just a decorative counter or end table, it now functions just like a real fridge—storing food, holding perishables, and blending seamlessly into gameplay.
Key features
It overrides the existing object and places it in the Refrigerator category. While Sims will animate as if opening the door, the animation doesn’t change. It’s a clever repurposing of game content that’s both practical and immersive.
Requirements and compatibility
You need the Get to Work expansion in order for the object to exist, since it replaces an item from that pack. The mod is Base Game compatible, meaning once installed it works with the standard game without conflicts.
Mod release date
First released in April 2022, the mod introduced new functionality to an otherwise unused object.
Gameplay role/impact
It adds valuable storage in compact builds, letting players use previously decorative-only objects for real function. It’s especially useful in kitchens with limited space or heavily themed builds—adding both utility and flair.
Maxis-Match?
Yes. Visually and behaviorally, the mini fridge maintains the game’s native aesthetic. It blends right in without feeling out of place.
Community feedback
Players appreciate the reuse of a quirky item that otherwise served no real purpose. Reaction highlights include calling it a brilliant repurpose and a top-tier space-saving tweak that’s both playful and practical.
