Overview
Recall check. This model: no recall on record at the US Consumer Product Safety Commission (checked September 2026). Source
Who makes it, and what to know
iio Kitchen is based in Toronto and sells only in the US and Canada. On September 19, 2026, both the RR2 and the RM1 were out of stock on iio's own store. The RM1 doors cannot be reversed: you order the left-hinge or the right-hinge version. Every iio listing on Amazon was unavailable when we checked. Kept here for the color range; check back.
Each color link was opened and checked by a person. If one goes stale, tell us and it comes down.
Where a link earns us a commission, your price does not change. Where it earns nothing, the page says so.

“So, got this pink fridge with a 50s Retro vibe— very cool and couldn't find this color anywhere else. Frost-free, which is a win; hate chipping ice.”
“This is a great new fridge we just bought. Fits our kitchen perfectly and the color makes it really pop. We had people over and they kept looking and talking about it. Works really well and keeps our food at the temperature we want.”
“Overall a very nice fridge. Seems solid and the quality of the parts is good. We love the pink color. It perfectly matches our kitchen in my parents' house built in 1967.”
