What are the measurements for that?

If it's called a "bar" or mini fridge it's likely fine.

Do you recommend getting a one-door fridge or a two-door fridge? (separate door for freezer)

The only ones I've ever seen are the 1 doors ones, but if you can get it to fit you can get a 2 door.

Mines a 3.2cu ft fridge and it fits fine. I know people that have used 4.3cu ft and they fit fine too.

You can rent them from Mac, yes.

Do you mean do the fridges have freezers or can you rent those too?

I think the freezer parts tend to frost up pretty quickly; and I don't know of any brands that are self-defrosting. Does anyone have a self-defrosting kind?
