The unit has a nice feature of being able to store white and red wines at your selected temp. The size is very good and was perfect for the area we wanted to place it. It holds the selected temp just fine but if the power is interupted you will need to reset your settings. It does have a few shortcomings... It is much louder than a standard fridge given it's size. The shelves that you must use to remove a bottle don't fit very well at all and they will drop out of their slots while in use. These wood shelves are all very cheaply made. The LED lights inside are all but useless. The door must be opened fully (180 degrees) in order to slide out a shelf to remove the bottle. We have a GE unit in another location that is a much better unit but only has single selected temp. It did cost nearly twice what this unit did.

If/when it dies I will not replace it with this brand or model. It proved to point that you get what you pay for.

We have no beef with Amazon.com in fact they were very accomodating and quick to replace our first Vinotemp wine refrigerator, with a SECOND Vinotemp wine refrigerator (and they Fed Ex'd it at Amazon's cost).

In both instances, the Vinotemp refrig arrived with a big dent in the back of the refrig.We couldn't detect any indentations in the surrounding styrofoam so we concluded it was leaving the VINOTEMP factory like that (nice quality control, Vinotemp!).Also, since we only saw a photo of this product online, we weren't aware of how cheap it looks up close and personal.The fact that both times we received a damaged VINOTEMP was actually a blessing in disguise.

We ended up buying a Haier wine refrigerator for a few dollars less and it holds 15 more bottles and is superior quality.Whew.

P.S.Also at one point during our decision making process, I called Vinotemp directly to ask some product point questions.I spoke to two different representatives and it was obvious that NEITHER one knew what she was talking about.I had an unsettled feeling about that, but we went forward anyways.

Again, damaged VINOTEMP out of the factory (2x) = blessing in disguise!

Thermostat stopped working after 2 months.Refrigerator still cools, but cannot set the temp. and the temp. changes on its own.Also, makes a weird noise now.I finally just unplugged it.

I will now need to buy another brand to replace this one.Don't waste your money on this one.

I loved this product at first. But unfortunately it only worked for 5 months. The company sent me two replacement coolers. None of them worked! Now i am stuck wth this last one because they dont want to replace it again. The controls do not work, the temperature inside is way too low for wine and the temp display went crazy. Now I am using as a wine cabinet UNPLUGGED. Sad... Never again from Vinotemp!

1. The Vinotemp wine cooler arrived damaged.

2. It looks cheap (although I liked the blue lights). Having to open the door all the way is annoying .

3. The wood racks are difficult to slide out.

4. The temperature doesn't stay down when summer comes (now I know why after reading the comment from another reviewer: no compressor)

5. The unit broke down 15 months after I bought it. Repair cost: $400. Forget about it, I'm junking it!
