I came across a few blog posts online about the transformation of a compact fridge into a kegerator. Problem is most of them had fridges that are now discontinued, like this one : http://www.thegatesofdawn.ca/wordpress/homebrewing/kegerator/

I'm now looking for an alternative choice and I think I found a few that would be suitable for the transformation, but there are no blog posts about them (none that I found anyways). I'm looking for one with no freezer and who can handle two 2.5/5 gallons corny kegs.

What compact fridge still available is suitable for this kind of stuff?

Would these work :

I found this one to buy on kijiji : http://montreal.kijiji.ca/c-ViewAd?...BAAAAAgAAAAAF9eEAm/6dm8VYRjwSMgaeWNVyhbRRIrY* but it looks to be 4-cu ft only, not sure 2 corny kegs could fit there.

Thank you!
 
Sorry I dont know about any of those, but if you can find a wine fridge go for it! No conversion and usually pretty classy looking

Is that a fridge with a glass on the door?
 
Yes, and they don't have a freezer section, the cooling element is flat against the back. The coldest they go is not very low, but it is very easy to adjust.
