Good looking, reasonable capacity. Not as easy to stack bottle on bottle. Only so many options for that. Holds temp well- unlike the previous model that Wine Enthusiast sent and ultimately had to take back. However, this unit struggles to keep the humidity over 50% even with a pan of water in the cabinet. A good wine fridge should easily keep at 60-70%. It's worse in summer so one could assume it's all due to the cooling system taking too much humidity out of the cabinet.

This unit is nice and works fine, shipping was also very nice. The only reason that I don't give the 5/5, is that temperature does fluctuate. I have all my coolers at 56 degrees and this one being set at 56 never got there, it ranges from 52 and 55 degrees and I do not open the unit often. I am an educated wine collector and need to rely on optimal units. This one does the job but time will tell if I put my more expensive bottles in this unit... so far, medium range bottles. cheers

The wine cooler makes a swooshing noise about every 15 seconds. It is quite annoying. When I called to question the noise I was told it’s an inversion cooler - like a convection oven with a fan which keeps all area at the same temperature. If I was aware of the noise I would have purchased a non inversion unit. Otherwise it’s fine.

Looks great! Easy to install. Delivery guys were very professional. Keeps steady temperature and humidity. Easy to load. I’m hoping for many years of service

This wine cooler has a very nice design and is very quiet. The temperature is consistent and there are enough rollout shelves that can be configured in various ways. My only issue (and it is still an issue) is I wish the designers would leave at least 0.5” more space between shelves. Larger (longer, thicker, etc.) 750ml bottles do not fit well or you can only utilize half of a shelf because the bottles “bump” up against the bottles on the shelf above or below. If this issues was corrected this would be one of the very best wine coolers on the market.

Love this fridge. I have all my reds (and a few whites) in one place now. It is so nice not to worry about keeping them cool enough or to have to step my thermostat way to keep my house at a safe temp. Love, love, love it.

This is the second Vinotheque XL Single Zone cellar I have purchased. The first one sits in our garage. Despite the heat in the summer, it keeps a consistent temperature, and stores a lot of wine. It is also extremely quiet. We have a lot of champagne and odd sized bottles, so our bottle count is lower than what is listed. I bought a second as we needed more storage and I was so impressed with the one I bought that I bought another. It is quiet, elegant, and efficient. No issues with the delivery process. It arrived on schedule and the placed it inside the house without any problems. Very happy with my 2 Vinotheques thus far.
