I wouldn't work as well if the compressor coils were embedded in the outer skin of the fridge, but there are still alot of fridges out there with coils on the back and it seems like having a way to encourage air flow back there would be a good idea, fans are good and nice but they use energy, create noise and heat rises so why not take advantage of that?
