“The cooler came to temperature quickly and is very quiet. Due to its size, we could not put it under our kitchen counter and have to keep it in the laundry area which is disappointing. The capacity : although we knew it is set for Bordeaux style bottles it is extremely frustrating, given that this is 2023 and for Cabernet lovers there is no way to adjust the shelves or racks to accommodate larger bottles, which leaves a lot of jumbling of the bottles if you try to get more than half of the rack full. For $1400 which is the shipped price, I would expect some type of rack technology could be included to allow adjustable racks for larger bottles. Are you listening, Wine Enthusiast?”

“It was easy to set up and fit perfectly into our space. The shelves slide nicely and the LED lights make a beautiful statement. So far, the temperature is holding where we want it. The only issue was the screws to attach the handle were missing. But, customer support had them shipped out to me quickly. Very happy with this purchase.”

“There's a lot to like about this wine refrigerator. It's whisper quiet and holds temperature perfectly. It's an attractive design as well. My complaints are the same as what everyone complains about, that is the 80 bottle listed capacity is significantly more than what it can actually hold. I have no idea what a 'standard' sized bottle is. I have a 500 bottle collection and maybe a dozen or so would fit neatly into the slots. I mean, how many higher end wines come in 'standard sized' bottles? This isn't a WE issue as the whole industry sizes these refrigerators based on the 'standard sized' bottle. As such, I'm not faulting WE for this. This is an exceptional wine refrigerator. I'm extremely happy with the delivery and setup and I know my higher end wines will be good to go for years to come. I may even buy another one.”

“Very quiet. Fits well in the space. Looks good. Canont fit 80 bottles of varying sizes, but I knew that when I purchased. Shipping cost could be lower.”

“I'm pretty happy with my Wine Enthusiast Classic 80 Wine Cellar. It looks good (I like the blue light) and seems to be doing the job it's meant to do quite well. As nearly every reviewer seems to note, the 80-bottle capacity just isn't real-world: bottle sizes and shapes vary too much (and that's not the fridge maker's fault). I squeezed about 60 bottles into mine.”

“This wine cellar was exactly what I was looking for to take care of a modest collection of red wines. From ordering online to the delivery, everything went smoothly. Setting it up was a snap. I am very pleased with this purchase. I look forward to stocking it regularly.”
