Visually, the cooler look nice. Clean lines, etc. My unit has consistent temps to what I set it at as well. Three things are disappointments though: 1) The unit is not silent. The compressor (?) clicks on and off every so often and this is quite audible if you're in the same room. If you're in a quiet environment, you will hear it. For those that aren't sure what I'm talking about, it sounds exactly like when your refrigerator starts or stops humming (unsurprisingly). But then again, I'm not often in my kitchen working on something trying to focus. 2) The top rack of the bottom section requires stacking if you want to get more bottles in. This is really annoying. If you want to get a bottle out from underneath, or even see what it is, you need to pull a few bottles out first. Extremely annoying. 3) The bottom "bin" sucks. About half of the space there is taken up by casing (for the cooling mechanics I imagine), so you can fit around three bottles there. It's nice to have somewhere to put longer bottles like a magnum or longer Alsatian flute for example, but the design of this is terrible. The metal bracket you can see in the product image doesn't move at all, so any bottles you place there have to be jimmied around that. Like the stacking I mentioned in point 2, it's a very inelegant solution. I'm also not a fan of having two different sections at different temps, it feels more like a marketing gimmick, and one more thing that could potentially break, than anything else. But I bought this wine cooler knowing that's what it was, so I can't complain. Overall, given the price, cooling performance, and exterior appearance, I rate this a 4. It's just fine.

Nice looking, can be loud at times. Doesn't fit some bottles. Keeps the temperature setting but can get pretty warm on the outside panels resulting in hot air in the room.

Product arrived on time as stated when ordered. Great boxing as it allows you to keep the cellar totally upright and the boxing comes apart easily. Followed the initial setup instructions and it has been holding temps perfectly. The only con would be as stated by others. Any wine bottles larger than the standard 750ml will reduce your overall storage

Fantastic little wine storage! Dual zone is very helpful to store a variety of different wine types and styles. It's super easy to store wines that require precise temperature control. It's placement is in a designated and designed wine room so despite it being quiet, it didn't have to be. Effective, efficient and controllable.

I like the wine fridge. Easy to set temperature Fits comfortably in the space. My white wine bottles are wide on the bottom and don’t allow all the spaces to be used. That’s a little disappointing. It was mentioned in the specs though. It’s been quite noisy but I moved it around and now it is much quieter. Overall I like the fridge.

Love our new fridge. Our previous one wasn’t a year old when it quit working. Contacted Wine Enthusiast about issue they immediately sent a new larger capacity fridge. Thank you
