Customers frequently mention the quiet operation of the wine fridge, appreciating its classy appearance. However, some customers express concerns about the shelving, finding it difficult to accommodate larger bottles. Additionally, there are comments regarding the temperature regulation, suggesting that the wine chillers may not maintain the desired temperature effectively.
We are truly enjoying this cooler. Quiet, holds temperature, well made,the racks take a little bit of figuring out to remove for larger bottles.

We just recently bought this wine fridge, and within the first couple days of setting it up it started making really loud moaning, whining and grinding noises that sounds like the fridge is dying. They seem to happen every time the fan comes on, which is at least 10x/day. We took a video of the noise and sent it to NewAir customer support, just to be told these noises are "normal" and there is nothing they can do about it. I searched product descriptions and other reviews, and nowhere were these noises mentioned. I would avoid purchasing this product and get a different brand, ideally non dual-zone if you can help it. We bought it under the pretense that we'd be able to increase the temperature of the top zone for red wines (we have way more reds than whites) but it won't let you increase it past 50 degrees Fahrenheit?! Silly design. Let people put their wine at the temperature they want. The racks are also quite small and have a difficult time holding larger bottles. Looks pretty, but otherwise not high quality for the price.

Unit has two cooling sections. Top section performs well but bottom section will not cool lower than 59-60. Newaire replaced the product and guess what, replacement unit still does not cool better than 59-60. Newaire has now gone silent on me. Secondarily, the shelving is poor and some bottles will scrape with the shelve above it and may damage your wine label. I have to hold selve above when inserting a bottle to minimize scraping. A real disappointment.
