This cooler is the perfect size and what I was looking for. It was exactly the size shown on the website and I am able to fill with 28 bottles. Yes, you are not able to reach back and get a bottle from the back without taking out other bottles, but this is to be expected as the bottles lay parallel to the door; not a hassle to remove front bottles - there are only 4 bottles in a row! Only negative, is the Compressor is a little louder than I expected, but it only goes on a few times a day.

I drink mostly white wine so wanted a wine cooler that would adequately chill up to 28 bottles. Temp set at 45 degrees yields lower 4 racks at 43-47 degrees and top 3 racks +50 degrees. Not a huge deal but definitely not consistent temperature control. Unit runs quietly except for then the compressor stops then you have a louder thump.

I wanted to wait to write this review after I had the fridge for awhile, so here we go. I ordered the fridge mid-March, so delivery came right around the beginning of lockdown for the pandemic (you all are awesome!). No issues with delivery and I let it sit unplugged for 24 hours to make sure everything settled. Everything worked with no issues. Six months later and everything is still working well and I love it! Sometimes I catch myself staring at it for a bit because it's so beautiful. There are a few caveats, however. When the compressor kicks on, it is not quiet - not the loudest thing, but you can certainly hear it, and it does make some slight gurgling noises at times. I ended up putting it in another room than originally intended for this reason, but it's not a deal breaker (I was hoping to upload a short video of what it sounds like, but I don't see a way to). Note that it was a small office in a condo, so in a larger space, it would likely not be as noticeable. The other important note is that while the bottom interior temperature matches the set temperature, the top interior is consistently a solid 5-6 degrees warmer. This can be troublesome for those really set on a single zone for a particular type of wine, but for me, I look at it as an unintended benefit. It's like getting a dual-zone for single-zone pricing! I have my whites in the bottom and reds toward the top, so it works out well. Overall, it's a great little wine fridge and super attractive. I would definitely recommend!

I love the product. It keeps my wines at a constant temp and very rarely hear it running. The efficiency of the cooler is great. The only thing I would like to be addressed is the interior lighting. The lights are mounted to the door and give great visibility of the wines when the door is closed. When you open the door the lights then shine in your face and not on the bottles you are trying to remove or place in the cooler.
