It looks good, works good but when the compressor kicks in, is loud! If you don’t have a problem with that, is a good choice!

Overall I like this wine cooler because it has a small footprint and it generally holds all my various wine bottles. The downside of its smaller size is that if you have a wider than normal bottle it forces you to leave an open/wasted slot next to it. Also it only supports standard length bottles so if you have a long bottle it will not fit. Any extra wide or longer bottles have to be placed in the bottom rack which sits loosely in the bottom of the cooler. Lastly, mine came with marks across the top caused by the packing material, hopefully this was a fluke and isn’t the norm. Pros: - Holds a lot of wine bottles for its small footprint - Digital thermostat lets you verify the temps - Internal light helps with bottle identification - Reasonably quiet when running Cons: - Wine bottle spacing is very tight so wide bottles limit shelf space - The depth does not support long bottles - Packaging left marks on the top’s finish Setup and Operation: My wine cooler came well packed with sheets of Styrofoam on all sides. Underneath the Styrofoam they used some plastic wrap to protect the cooler’s finish. Sadly where the plastic wrap was not used on the top of the unit the Styrofoam left marks on the finish. (see photo) While not really that noticeable it isn’t something you like to see on a new item and because its short the one thing everyone sees is the top. Once plugged in the unit ran reasonably quiet and the digital thermostat made it easy to get the right temp for my red wines. There is a built in light which definitely makes it easier to identify the bottles. Bottle Alignment: Inside the unit there are five racks which hold 5 bottles of wine each and a free standing rack on the bottom that holds four bottles. To hold 5 bottles the upper racks have very little spacing between bottles so if you have a thicker bottle than normal it will create problems. Also the depth of the unit does not allow bottles longer than normal to be stored on the upper racks. If you put one on the rack it will not allow you to close the door. I had three bottles that were too long and one that was too wide. The long ones I moved to the free standing shelf on the bottom and the thick bottle forced me to leave an open spot on the shelf next to it.

A fantastic wine cooler with plenty of room for your bottles. I was working with a 6 bottle cooler, and it just got tiring playing musical bottles to figure out which one of our wines we wanted chilled, while the rest sat in a wine rack. Now we don’t have to pick and choose as much, plus its replacing both the standing wine rack and the chilled cooler, so its saving us space. Setup was super easy and mostly obvious, instructions were limited, but that is no surprise for something you really just need to plugin but gives you good information about leveling and breathing room. I was confused about the wire basket initially since it didn’t really explain it, but after looking back at Best Buys site I noticed its an additional bottle holder (4 to be exact). The controls are simplified and well lit for viewing, there is also a “Quick Cool” option which I could not find anything in the instructions about or online, which I tried once and it seemed to just turn on “FC” which I seems to blast the cooler on? Dropped like 9-10 degrees within 3 hours. The instructions do provide you a nice guide to the different wine temps you should store the wine at, so don’t throw it away. I like the stainless steel look to it and I think looks great in my home. I did notice a discrepancy with the temperature of the cooler and the wine bottles, about 4 degrees F difference, and it has been running for 6 days before I checked it. I’m not quite sure what to think about it or if my laser temp gun reader may be slightly off (See picture, cooler set to 60 and was reading about 64 throughout the cooler) but the bottles did feel quite cool to the touch. Despite this, I’m overall happy with it and its cooling quality.

By far the quietist Wine Frig I have ever bought! Highly recommend this product.
