The refrigerator of this invention includes a thermal insulating box, an upper storing box and a lower storing box within the thermal insulating box, and a cooling unit arranged above the upper storing box. An interior space within the thermal insulating box is divided into a first passage communicating with a cold air blowing side of the cooling unit to cool the storing box while lowering the cold air and a second passage communicating with a cold air sucking side of the cooling unit to cool the storing box while raising the cold air descended down to the bottom part of the thermal insulating box and to return the cold air to the cooling unit. A space having the cooling unit stored therein is divided by a partition wall into a first chamber having the cooling unit arranged therein and a second chamber having an air blowing fan arranged therein. The partition wall is provided with through-holes at locations corresponding to the cold air passage within the first chamber.
