I owned three of the previous Eurocave model in this price point (EuroCave Comfort 1-Temp 260) and one of them bit the dust after 20 years of service. I chose this model to replace it. This unit is larger than the previous model and fits more bottles. I've got about 145 bottles in there right now using 8 sliding shelves with 12 bottles each and the rest dedicated to stacked bottles. Quality seems high. It's quite quiet, seems well built, and I like the LED control panel better than the old LCD one. However, the shelving leaves has some issues. As you can see in the product manual, the shelves are wood on wood rather than on rollers, with a wooden "peg" that you put in to keep it from pulling out too far. It works but it just doesn't come off as the type of quality you expect at the price point that Eurocave sells for. That said, this issue is more "feel" that a practical issue. That portion seems to work fine. The real problem is the shelves only come out about halfway, versus 75% on the previous model. Therefore, you cannot see what bottles the back row of the shelf even when you pull it out... and you have to take bottles in the front portion of the shelf out of the way to even get bottles into the back row. I've added a picture here to illustrate it. I knew they were different and didn't come out as far but I didn't realize what a pain they would be to use in practice. If I was choosing to buy for bulk storage, I'd choose this unit... but if you're going to use the pull-out shelving and be accessing wines on a daily basis, I'd consider spending more for a unit with better shelving.

Love the cabinet. Quiet, sleek, classy. Really beautiful. Only thing keeping it from 5 stars is the shelf slides. No hardware, simply racks that slide out. Still very nice, but could use some soft glide hardware that would match the other levels of finish on this unit.

Excellent price to quality level. This is my 5th Eurocave, and they are tough to beat.

great delivery and better than I expected. I bought an Eurocave when they first went into business. It is still running after 42 years with NO maintenance whatsoever and three house moves. I gave it to a dear friend and is at 58 degrees. Hope I have as much luck with this new one!!!!!!

Delivery schedule was a nightmare. Find a new vendor/ delivery co in Colorado. Product, as always, outstanding!

We’ve had very good luck with the Eurocave product, however, the individual wine bottle cradles do not allow for the various shapes of the 750ml bottles, so the unit does not hold the advertised # of bottles.
