So this is what I'm doing:
My wife picked out a wine fridge (similar to this) for me as a Christmas present. The racks in mine were stainless steel, so I kept one on the very top shelf and have the rest on hold for future uses.
I also picked out an Inkbird temperature controller and humidity controller. The fridge is plugged into the temperature controller as well as a carboy wrap heater. The heater is taped to reflectix that I cut to size and taped to the door (blocking light) with aluminium tape. This way when the chamber needs to be warmed up, there is even gentle heat radiating from across the whole door AND the light from the exterior is blocked.
I need to pick up a better humidifier, as the one I choose doesn't like it when the power cuts off using the Inkbird Humidity controller. So I need to get one that will start back up when the sensor kicks power back on to the outlet. Something small will work. The wine fridge I have has a fan built in and that kicks on when the fridge cools itself off from the heater (also, checking the meat on a semi-regular basis with opening the door keeps the airflow moving). I'll be buying some stainless S hooks to hang my curing meat on. Until that time, I'm just using binder clips and excess string from the trussing.
I can upload pictures later this evening.
Are those inside dimensions or outside dimensions? Assuming the former, 5.5 cu ft isn't really going to comfortably fit 4 fresh hams I think. My DIY chamber is 3.3 cu ft and would probably only fit a single ham, if it could fit one at all. Honestly, if all I can do is fit 4 hams into this fridge, and not have more room to cure anything else, I wouldn't get a $1200 mini fridge. I'd be looking for a 6' sliding door fridge where I can hang some sausages, whole muscles and maybe a few hams if I squeeze in everything real tight.

Also, in response, as someone without any personal experience in the matter, that cooler looks good. Decent low price, decent high rating, high capacity. If you get it, let me know how it is. I might want something like that soon :)
