For the smallest footprint, choose the 1.7 cu. ft. MRM17S5BBB; it is an all-refrigerator model measuring 18.6 × 17.6 × 19.3 inches. If you need a separate freezer, the 3.1 cu. ft. WHD-113FB1 has a 0.9 cu. ft. freezer, while the taller 4.5 cu. ft. MRM45D5BST has a 1.4 cu. ft. freezer. The right fit depends on the opening and clearance available, not capacity alone.

If frozen-food storage is not needed, an all-refrigerator model devotes its stated capacity to refrigeration instead. The MRM17S5BBB is the smallest by stated capacity in this group; the MRM33S5BBB and MERM44S1ABB offer more refrigerator capacity without a separately stated freezer.
Choose by the space and how you will use it
For a very tight nook or bedside use
The MRM17S5BBB is the smallest cited model by stated capacity and dimensions. The WHS-87LSS1 is also compact, with a listed height of 24.8 inches and a narrower 17.5-inch width, but it is deeper at 20 inches. Compare all three dimensions with the actual space; “smallest” depends on which dimension is constrained.

For a dorm, office, or small apartment with freezer needs
The WHD-113FB1 offers a separate freezer in a 33-inch-high cabinet. Its 0.9 cu. ft. freezer is smaller than the 1.4 cu. ft. compartment in the taller MRM45D5BST. Choose between them based on freezer capacity and vertical clearance, rather than the total capacity figure alone.
For more chilled storage without a separate freezer
The MRM33S5BBB is 33.9 inches tall and lists 3.3 cu. ft. of all-refrigerator capacity. The MERM44S1ABB lists 4.4 cu. ft., with removable, adjustable shelves, but is wider and deeper at 19.7 × 21.3 inches. Neither has a separate freezer listed in the manufacturer specifications cited here.

Check fit before ordering
- Measure the installation area. Record usable width, depth, and height, including any trim, counter overhang, outlets, or nearby obstacles. Compare with the listed cabinet dimensions above.
- Allow for the door and access. Make sure the door can open far enough without hitting a wall, cabinet, or furniture, and that you can reach shelves and drawers. Some models list reversible doors, but verify the exact model’s hinge configuration and instructions.
- Confirm installation clearances. Consult the model’s current manual for ventilation and placement requirements. The dimensions in the table describe the appliance, not the extra space it may require around it.
- Check the electrical and placement details. Follow the manual’s operating and installation instructions for the chosen model and location; do not assume all compact refrigerators have identical requirements.
- Verify the current listing. Confirm the exact model number, features, energy label, and availability on the product page or retailer listing before purchase.
What the specifications can—and cannot—tell you
Midea’s listed annual energy use for these six models ranges from 213 kWh/year for the WHS-87LSS1 to 329 kWh/year for the MRM45D5BST. These are manufacturer-listed, model-specific values observed on October 8, 2026. They can help compare the cited specifications, but do not establish an individual electricity bill or a guaranteed savings amount.
The manufacturer pages also do not establish comparative reliability, repair history, consumer satisfaction, or independently measured cooling performance. A listed temperature range, where present in product documentation, should not be treated as proof of food-safe performance in every room or operating condition. For food storage, follow the model’s instructions and verify actual temperatures with an appropriate appliance thermometer.
