Best Mini Fridges for Kegerator to Buy in 2026
Beer is one of the most popular drinks in the world, and if you are reading this, you are probably a fan. If you drink it often, though, it gets expensive, and repeated trips to the store to restock add to the hassle. A kegerator, or a mini fridge set up to hold a keg, solves both problems.
Like most things, beer gets cheaper per pint the more you buy at once. That is why a lot of people start looking at kegerators. A keg is the biggest batch you can buy, and it usually costs less per pint than cans or bottles. Kegs are bulky, though, and you need a way to store them and keep them cold.
There are many mini fridges for kegerators to suit different spaces and budgets. Here are the best options, from compact single-tap units to built-in triple-tap models.
Updated September 2026: product availability, specs and prices re-checked.
1. EdgeStar Full-Size Dual Tap Kegerator (KC2000SSTWIN)
EdgeStar is one of the best-known kegerator brands, which is why several of its models appear on this list. Its online store is now run by Ferguson.
The dual tap model, now sold as the KC2000SSTWIN, is a good fit for most homes. It measures 20-3/16 inches wide, 25-11/16 inches deep and 34-1/8 inches tall, with 4.9 cubic feet inside. It holds one full-size or pony keg, or two Cornelius or sixth-barrel kegs, and pours them through two taps. EdgeStar rates it for 34°F to 45°F. It rolls on casters, so you can move it around. It sold for about $829 at Ferguson (September 2026), as a special order that can take several weeks to ship.
Pros of EdgeStar Full-Size Dual Tap Kegerator
- Two taps for two different beers
- Casters for easy moving
- Moderately compact
- Stainless steel finish
Cons of EdgeStar Full-Size Dual Tap Kegerator
- Special order, with a wait of several weeks
2. EdgeStar Full-Size Kegerator and Beer Cooler (KC2000SS)
This is EdgeStar’s single-tap version of the same kegerator. It shares the KC2000SSTWIN’s body and dimensions but has one tap and holds one full-size keg. It costs a little less than the dual tap model.
It works for a home bar or a small commercial space. A black version, the KC2000, is also sold and costs a bit less than the stainless KC2000SS.

3. EdgeStar Craft Brew Kegerator (KC1000SS)
The KC1000SS is EdgeStar’s smallest kegerator. It measures 17.5 inches wide, 18.25 inches deep and 33.25 inches tall, so it fits in apartments and small bars. It sold for about $559 at Ferguson (September 2026).
It holds 3.2 cubic feet: enough for one sixth-barrel keg or a Cornelius keg, which is popular with homebrewers. A digital thermostat sets the temperature from 32°F to 46°F, and a blue LED lights the display. It has a single tap. Check the manual for the airflow clearance it needs before you fit it into a tight spot.
Pros of EdgeStar Craft Brew Kegerator
- Digital temperature control
- Very compact
- Good for homebrew Cornelius kegs
Cons of EdgeStar Craft Brew Kegerator
- Too small for a full-size keg
4. Kegco 20″ Wide Single Tap Black Kegerator (MPK199B-1P)
The Nostalgia KRS2100 is no longer listed, so the Kegco MPK199B-1P takes its place. It is a similar freestanding single-tap unit, 20 inches wide, 25.5 inches deep and 33 inches tall.
It holds one full-size or quarter keg, or two five-gallon kegs, and keeps beer between 34°F and 45°F. It sits on locking casters, so you can move it and then fix it in place. It sold for about $795 on Kegco’s site (September 2026).
Pros of Kegco MPK199B-1P
- Holds a full-size keg
- Locking casters
- Holds two five-gallon kegs as an alternative
Cons of Kegco MPK199B-1P
- Single tap only
5. Kegco 24″ Wide Dual Tap Digital Kegerator (K309SS-2)
The Kegco K309SS-2 replaces the single-tap K309SS-1NK from our earlier list. It is a stainless steel kegerator with a digital thermostat and two taps.
It measures 23.5 inches wide, 23.5 inches deep and 35 inches tall. It holds a full-size or quarter keg, or up to three five-gallon kegs. The digital control covers a wide range, from 32°F to 75°F, so you could also use it as a regular fridge. It is one of the more expensive units here, selling for about $890 on sale at Kegco (September 2026).
Pros of Kegco K309SS-2
- Stainless steel
- Digital thermostat with a wide range
- Two taps
- Fits up to three five-gallon kegs
Cons of Kegco K309SS-2

6. Danby Kegerator (DKC054A1BSLDB)
We could not find a current listing for the KeggerMeister KM2800BK, so the Danby DKC054A1BSLDB takes its spot. It is a black single-tap kegerator with a Sankey coupler, 20.59 inches wide, 24.33 inches deep and 33.07 inches tall.
It has 5.4 cubic feet inside and holds full-size and half-size kegs. Temperature is set with a mechanical control. It sold for about $700 on Danby’s site (September 2026), with only a few units left, so availability may vary.
Pros of Danby DKC054A1BSLDB
- Good capacity
- Sankey coupler included
- Compact footprint
Cons of Danby DKC054A1BSLDB
- Mechanical, not digital, temperature control
- Limited stock
7. EdgeStar 20 Inch Wide Ultra Low Temperature Mini Fridge for Kegerator (BR2001BL)
The BR2001BL is a fridge first. It ships without tap hardware, so you buy the kegerator parts separately if you want to convert it. In return, it costs less than a complete kegerator: about $469 at Ferguson (September 2026).
It has 4.9 cubic feet of space, holds one full-size keg, and keeps a range of 34°F to 45°F. It rolls on casters and has automatic defrost. If you only want a cold beer fridge for now and a tap later, this is a flexible choice.
Pros of EdgeStar 20 Inch Mini Fridge for Kegerator
- Lower price than full kegerators
- Fits a full-size keg
- Automatic defrost
Cons of EdgeStar 20 Inch Mini Fridge for Kegerator
- No tap hardware included
8. Danby Designer 4.4 Cubic Feet Compact Refrigerator (DAR044A4BDD)
This one is not a kegerator by design, but it can be converted. The Danby DAR044A4BDD is the current version of the DAR044A4BDD-3 from our earlier list. Without a tap on top, it works best with kegs that have their own tap, or with a conversion kit.
It holds 4.4 cubic feet and measures 20.71 inches wide, 20.87 inches deep and 32.8 inches tall. It has automatic defrost and a reversible door. Danby lists it at about $320 (September 2026), making it the cheapest route to a keg fridge on this list.
Pros of Danby Designer 4.4 Cubic Feet Compact Refrigerator
- Low price
- Automatic defrost
- Reversible door
Cons of Danby Designer 4.4 Cubic Feet Compact Refrigerator
- Needs a conversion kit to work as a kegerator
9. EdgeStar Triple Tap Built-in Kegerator (KC7000BSSTRIP)
At the end of the list is a premium model. The triple-tap EdgeStar, now sold as the KC7000BSSTRIP, is not cheap: about $2,120 at Ferguson (September 2026). It earns its price with features the others lack.
It has three taps on top and 6.62 cubic feet inside, enough for three Cornelius or sixth-barrel kegs, or one full-size keg. A digital control sets the temperature from 32°F to 60°F. It can be built in under a counter or used freestanding, so it fits into custom cabinetry or a home bar.
Pros of EdgeStar Triple Tap Built-in Kegerator
- Three taps
- Digital temperature control
- Built-in or freestanding installation
Cons of EdgeStar Triple Tap Built-in Kegerator
- Expensive
What to Look For
- Keg size: check that the unit fits the kegs you buy. A full-size (half-barrel) keg needs a larger unit than a sixth barrel or a Cornelius keg.
- Taps: one tap is enough for most homes. Two or three let you pour different beers.
- Built-in or freestanding: only front-vented, built-in rated models should go under a counter.
- Conversion-ready fridges: cheaper, but you will need to buy a tower, coupler and CO2 tank separately.

Conclusion
EdgeStar still has the most models on this list, but Kegco and Danby are strong alternatives. The right choice depends on where you want to put the kegerator, how much space you have, your budget, and how much beer you want to keep cold. We hope this list helps you make an informed choice.
