Wine Enthusiast Silent 18 Bottle Wine Refrigerator - Freestanding Slimline Bottle Storage Wine Cooler, Black

This is a fine looking wine fridge. Its temperature controls with two zones work fine within a degree or two. Noise is very low and infrequent. I am keeping it in my living room. The shelf space may be a little tight for non-standard thick bottles. If there many of these, one of the shelfs may be removed reducing the total number of bottles; however, I haven't need to do this so far.

Looks like the pictures and functions as described but chiller is very loud.

First off, putting the handles on the doors was aggravatingly difficult. Slipping the screw behind the door gasketing and shoving the screw through a hole that didn't exactly 'line up' took a bit longer than expected.We let it sit for a day to settle any freon, then plugged it in.I figured it would be a bit loud, but it seemed to be almost just 'too loud' for us.The compressor running was OK but some solenoid or contact was clicking and making quite the racket every few minutes. I waited another day like that then decided to look closer.Everything seemed good around the compressor area so I thought I'd check level. It was way off level even though the floor is good. I spent a few minutes leveling it, slid it back as close to the wall as possible, checked level again and it seems to be running quieter.We're happy with it, it seems to run a couple degrees warmer than the setting but it's close enough. Maybe if I put a little sound dampening thing behind it some day or find a cabinet to fit around it someday it would run even quieter, but for now it's doing good.One thing, it does seem to cycle on/off quite a lot even though it's over 1/2 full with bottles, maybe every 2 or 3 minutes.

Very disappointed with this wine fridge. While the compressor is working has a very annoying electric buzzing that starts when you least expect and keeps for a few seconds, randomly. I tried to contact Wine Enthusiast right after I bought the fridge and the only response I ever received from them was one email with a video that had no sound saying that this is the normal operating sound. After that I send multiple emails, never received a response to them.Now I have a wine fridge that I cannot use, due to that electrical buzzing that sounds very unsafe.I would give 0 stars to this product if I could

We've had this chiller for over a year now and it's still working well. We recommend.

I researched this thoroughly and felt that this was the best option for the price, given that I have a small space and wanted dual zones. I read the negative feedback and yet there was enough positive feedback that I thought it was worth moving forward with this unit. It arrived nicely packaged and undamaged, however the previous comments regarding attaching the door handles are spot on. It is not easy to feed the screws into the door handle holes while peeling back the rubber seal. After figuring out a way to do this and successfully attaching one of the door handles, I tackled the other. Unfortunately, there seemed to be something missing on the second door that would prevent the screw from penetrating almost all the way through to the glass front. Because of this, the screw is too long and will not screw all the way into the handle, leaving a 1/4" gap on the screw between the glass door front and the handle. I reached out to Amazon for help but was referred to the manufacturer. I placed a call into the manufacturer using the number Amazon provided but was only able to leave a voice mail (all agents were busy). 24 hours later I've not received a call back. My husband is on his way to the hardware store to try to buy shorter screws and/or washers that would prevent the screws from going as deep. I would return this item but it would be extremely cumbersome for me to try to pack it back up and haul it to UPS. Fingers crossed that my husband is able to correct the issue. I do not find the unit excessively noisy and do not hear a buzzing sound that is mentioned in other reviews. I would love to give this better reviews but the hassle with the door handle installation makes this just an ok unit.

Great dual-zone, 32 bottle wine fridge. Holds temperatures just fine. Product arrived 3 days ahead of schedule. Packaging protected the fridge perfectly.

I believe for the money this cooler is spot on. Love it for its size and the fact that it has duel zone cooling. It looks good standing alone although one could build it into a cabinet. The temp range does vary 3-4 degrees however I suspect it has to do with cycling on and off. The chrome racks hold the wine and can be rolled out easily to view what you have available. For the money it seems well built. Very quiet! Highly recommend this beverage cooler especially for wine.
