This product is an incredible value in my opinion. I have exhaustively researched wine fridges and I settled on this one for the price to performance ratio. I have had this unit for a few months now and it has definitely lived up to the hype. It is quiet, it cools quickly and ice doesn't build up. If a perfect wine fridge exists, this is it!

Good

I bought this wine fridge to gain additional storage space. The order was shipped as described (tailgate service unloaded it in my driveway for me to unbox and bring into my house). Once I unpacked the unit and brought it inside I left the unit vertical for 24 hours to ensure no issues. I plugged in the unit and although louder than my existing wine fridge, it is not extremely loud (but definitely noticeable). I set the thermostat at 54 degrees F and let it come to temperature. Each shelf will hold 11 Bordeaux bottles as described. However, the shelves are somewhat lightweight in construction so I would caution you not to expect to put that many on a shelf. I loaded 6-7 bottles per shelf (there are 13 shelves so you can easily store ~90) bottles without overloading the shelves. If you are careful, you can put 11 bottles per shelf for a total of 140 bottles storage. If you have larger bottles you can easily remove shelves to accommodate them but that also lowers the total number of bottles you can store. After two weeks I have checked the temperature and the fridge seems to hold the setting within a degree or so. The unit does cycle off and on but like I mentioned before it is noisier than a normal fridge. The 4 star rating reflects this and the light weight shelves. Overall I am pleased and this is a good unit for someone who needs more space but does not want to break the bank on a wine fridge.

This wine fridge is a thermoelectric cooling system. The fan runs nearly constantly. It sounds like an airplane is warming up in whatever space you keep it in. They could have installed a much quieter fan to make this product a 5 star. I don't think I can in good conscience recommend this product even though it does keep the wine at the right temperature...I have it set at 55 and it shows 61 on the display panel. I use an independent thermometer to keep track of the actual temperature and it stays at 55. The constant noise just ruins it for me.
