Vinotemp VT-32TEDS Thermo-Electric Digital Dual-Zone 32-Bottle Wine Chiller, Black and Stainless Review

Mr. Patrick from Vinotemp stated in response to these reviews: "...(Vinotemp) as always have superior customer service in dealing with anything that we may have overlooked."
Mr. Patrick, my experience with your company has been like MANY OTHERS on this website. The people I have had to deal with at Vinotemp have all been EXTREMELY RUDE and unhelpful! I received NO customer service at all.
If how I was treated is considered 'superior customer service,' then you are completely out of touch with what is actually going on at your company!
My first Vinotemp TEDS (made in China) had a thermostat that broke within 3 weeks, and the replacement wine cooler (which was also dented on top) broke within 6 weeks.
Unfortunately my second chiller was no longer covered under the initial product's 90 day warranty (I purchased the product in person at your company, not on Amazon). If it were not for my credit card's extended warranty I would be out nearly $350, not to mention my time and trouble, making two two-hour round trips to Vinotemp.
My entire experience with your company has been one big JOKE! Not only were both of my Vinotemp coolers absolute garbage, but the attitude and unwillingness to work with me, or even allow me return the product for a refund, does not even deserve one star here!
I will be purchasing a name brand wine cooler instead. My opinion is to STAY FAR FAR AWAY FROM VINOTEMP PRODUCTS.

Accommodating up to 32 bottles, this freestanding wine chiller features two zones that can be individually set for accurately controlling the temperature of both red and white wine. Its innovative thermo-electric cooling system, which involves very few moving parts, delivers ultra-quiet, energy-efficient operation and protects wine from unnecessary vibration. More importantly, thermo-electric cooling does not use ozone-depleting chemicals such as CFC's or HCFC's, which means it's better for the environment. In addition, the wine-cooling unit's dual-paned glass door provides better UV protection and better insulation properties for enhanced energy efficiency. Other highlights include a digital display with push-button operation, wood pull-out shelves, and an easy-to-clean design. Attractively housed in a black cabinet with stainless-steel trim, the wine chiller measures 21-3/8 by 20-3/4 by 32-1/8 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.

Vinotemp VT-18TEDS Thermo-Electric Digital 18-Bottle Wine Chiller, Black and Stainless Review

Vinotemp VT-18TEDS Thermo-Electric Digital 18-Bottle Wine Chiller, Black and Stainless

I've had this unit for about 3 weeks and it's running quite well. It arrived quickly and undamaged. Packing could have been better but since it arrived OK, no problem. It fits 18 normal wine bottles (750ml). It's quite quiet (certainly less noisy than the Cusinart I had). Temperature is adjustable and accurate. Obviously it allows for one temperature, so if you like your white wines chilled you'll probably have to move it to the fridge and hour before you open the bottle.
Overall I'm very happy with this unit. We called a wine store for a recommendation and this is the manufacturer he recommended.

Haier HVZ035ABS 35-Bottle Capacity Extra large Wine Cellar, Black Review

Haier HVZ035ABS 35-Bottle Capacity Extra large Wine Cellar, Black
Average Reviews:

NICE CONCEPT, BUT I WOULD THINK TWICE ABOUT BUYING HAIER.
This is a nice compact wine cooler. The top shelf will go down to 43 degrees (if it is working) for 10 bottles of white and the bottom shelf will go down to 56 degrees for 25 bottles of red. It is a small size that can fit into a corner. It is a good height, being about the height of countertop. You can take shelves out so you can store magnums.
The unit has adjustable feet for leveling, but there is not adjustment available. It is easy to unscrew a foot all of the way out, and then it is difficult to screw back in. I ended up putting a coaster under one of the feet to level the unit.
BUT IT IS VERY POOR QUALITY.
When I got the unit home, I found it had a broken door and would not seal. The manual says, don't return the unit, but call for service.
Haier contracts out the service to the same company that does home service calls for Sears. I called and someone came within a week. They found that the door was broken and needed to be replaced.
A new door was ordered from Haier. It took about 3 months for a door to come. Haier sent 2 doors, because both doors were badly chipped. I guess they felt we would just choose the one that was the best. Then Haier sent out 3 more doors, each one worse than the next.
I was getting nowhere with Haier, so I sent an email to the company headquarters in China. I finally got some action, and Haier said they would replace my entire unit.
I did get a "new" unit. It was kind of dinged up, but the door sealed.
Also, some of the shelves do not stay in place.
After about 30 days of running, the unit will start making a lot of noise. There is actually a thing in the owners manual about this. It says if the cooler starts making noise, unplug it for a little while. Of course, this is a bid pain, if you have the cooler up against the wall and the plug is not easy to access. It means about once a month, you need to empty the wine cooler, move it out from the wall, unplug, wait and push it back.
After 5 months, this new unit stopped cooling on the top shelf. I called Haier and they said it is no longer under warranty, since I purchased the unit over a year ago. But, the first unit was bad for 7 months and not really usuable. I've only had a "working" unit for 5 months.
I am now going to appeal to corporated headquarters and see if they will do something about it.

Haier HVZ040ABH 40-Bottle Dual-Zone Wine Cellar with Touch-Screen Controls Review

Average Reviews:

I too bought this item from another dealer for $100 more in price and am having the same experience. The concept was just what I was looking for, but there is absolutely no quality to the product. My problem started with the upper shelves not fitting properly and the temperature never going as low as I wanted for white wines. I called Haier and they sent out a technican who opened the door, took one look, and told me the insulation was blown out and the unit was not repairable. He then proceeded to tell me of all the problems I would encounter in trying to get a refund. Well, he was right! It's amazing how many faxes and emails can simply get lost at Haier America over a two month period. I am now in my 30 day wait for a refund after refusing an exchange. I will never buy another Haier product . . . a Korean product made in China.
Update Nov 8, 2007: I just received my refund check minus 10% for using the cooler. I called Haier and asked how I could "use" a product that had no insulutation. I now have to wait another 4 - 6 weeks to receive the balance of my refund. . .

If this was a bit less noisy, I may consider a 5 stars!
Other than that , it is convenient.... Yes. 15 bottles can get in but I keep the red bull and sodas in the lower levels.

Bought the cooler in March 2009. It worked well until a week ago, then the upper compartment went dead (no light, no cooling)and the lower compartment started emitting a ticking sound. Wrote to the company, here is their reply:

Anyone who's ever opened a much-anticipated bottle of wine can attest to the effects of improper wine storage. Wine that is served too cold can affect its flavor and aroma notes while wine that is served too warm will speed up the aging process and cause an overly alcoholic taste. As such, whether you're a budding wine aficionado or a true oenophile, a thermoelectric wine cooler such as the NewAir AW-210ED will allow you to serve your favorite vintages as they should be enjoyed.

The space-saving and compact NewAir AW-210ED thermoelectric wine cooler has a large, twenty-one bottle capacity that makes it perfect for any household. The LED display, digital controls, and a touch button control panel all allow for easy operation. Moreover, the NewAir AW-210ED even has an LED light within the cooler itself for enhanced visibility.

However, perhaps the mainstay of the AW-210ED thermoelectric wine cooler is its dual temperature zones. This means that the cabinet's upper and lower zones are specialized, independently refrigerated chambers with separate temperature control capabilities which allow you to chill two different types of wine at once. Best of all, in terms of noise, the NewAir AW-210ED is silent and vibration-free due to thermoelectric electric technology.

Therefore, if you need a large-capacity wine cooler that has the ability to chill multiple types of wine with just one unit, try the NewAir AW-210ED.
