“This is a cool cooler (pun intended). It looks nice, is quiet and keeps the temperature consistent. The blue lights are a nice touch! Shelving slides out smoothly, giving you a total view of the wine.Here's my beef- It's rated as a 200 bottle unit but says that your bottle count may go down if you have other than standard red wine bottles (Bordeaux). I think that we all have a good amount of larger format bottles i.e. Chardonnay, Syrah, Pinot Noir. Even the standard Bordeaux bottle is often bigger, wider and taller these days. Like most people, I have a mix of wine bottles and found that 140 bottles was about the most I could stock and still have the shelves open without jamming due to too many bottles.I believe that people that invest in wine cellars buy nicer wines in all kinds of bottle sizes. My wish would be to have a more realistic bottle count listed for these cellars.”

“Very pleased with my purchase. The installation team was excellent . It will actually hold the quantity of bottles advertised and it is visually attractive in the room . It's become a conversation piece when friends come over. Looking forward to expanding my collection and filling it”

“While it doesn't "easily" hold the 200 bottles, it does meet expectations in offering an aesthetic option to store wine. I'm so pleased that I ordered another one.”

“I was really excited about this project and for the price, I was expecting a bit more (I also purchased the table top). I bought the wine rack as a stand-alone piece for my dining room. The natural wood color looked nice, but I decided to stain it to fit my decor. Staining:For the most part, staining was a breeze and it looks great (I recommend doing it with a sprayer)! The only place where the stain did adhere well was on the tabletop. They used a wood filler that is not stainable, would have been nice to know.Assembly:I am used to creating, assembling and refurbishing furniture and accent pieces, and I have to admit, assembly at first was a nightmare. The wood splits incredibly easily, I had to predrill each hole and blunt and soap the brads; yes all three actions were required. This must be a common issue as the company sent along extra cross-support pieces.Post-assembly:After I finished assembly, I was still not confident this piece could stand on its own( it does come with wall mounts, but it should still be self-supportive). Luckily, the above mentioned extra cross-support peices along with a little wood glue came in handy to reinforce the structure.Overall:Time, patience and a little wood working skill are needed for assembly. For the price, I was hoping for a little more...a little more strength, stability and quality.”

“I found this product to be a great value for the money and purpose. It was easy to assemble by myself but would be even easier with the help of a friend. No split wood or bent nails as I pre-drilled the holes. Sturdy when attached to wall (turn brackets upside down to conceal behind wine bottles). Very attractive in my cellar. I just ordered 2 more designer racks to go with this one.”
