    so i bought a mini fridge off craigslist for quite a few bucks, and like a dumbass i broke it almost right away. i snapped the freezer unit off trying to bend it.

    can this be fixed? if so, how?

    Hi

    Simple answer - it's toast.

    Long answer, yes you can repair it. Yes somebody can come out and re-fill the system with the right coolant. You can buy two brand new / not on sale fridges for what that all will cost you.

    At least two. I feel your pain. Those little units are pretty much throwaways.

    Sorry to say but pretty much all new units are throwaways...not just the little ones.
