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

(More customer reviews)
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.

Haier 18-Bottle Capacity Wine Tower Storage Review

Haier 18-Bottle Capacity Wine Tower Storage
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
1. It looks cool with the silver metal accents, tinted glass, illuminated interior with a cool blue light, and metal racks.
2. It keeps the bottles at an even temperature regardless of the ambient temperature which as anyone knows is the greatest factor in wine stability.
3. It doesn't have settings for humidity or dual-zone temperatures, but quite honestly I don't plan on keeping expensive 100-year old bottles stored in this thing that require such exquisite delicacy.
4. It is super-quiet. All you hear is a fan that turns on and off occasionally. I have it next to my hi-fi system and there is absolutely no interference whatsoever.
5. If you want a good-looking wine storage appliance that has a small footprint and keeps your bottles cooler than your pantry and warmer than the fridge without extra hassles, then this is the product for you.

With an 18-bottle capacity, this stylish wine cellar elegantly stores and displays a personal collection of the finest wines, keeping them safe and ready to enjoy. Its ultra-quiet thermal-electric cooling system avoids vibrations caused by compressor cooling systems. Such vibrations disturb the sediments in wine, disrupting the aging process. Without vibration, the stored wine can age naturally. The wine cellar features a double-pane insulated glass door and a recessed handle, giving the unit a clean, simple look. Nine full-width wire chrome storage racks keep the bottles organized, while the interior light helps showcase the collection. Other details include an adjustable mechanical thermostat for setting the temperature from 50- to 64-degrees F, rear venting, and leveling legs that make it easy to stabilize the unit even if it sits on uneven ground. The wine cellar measures 22-5/16 by 11 by 40-29/32 inches and carries a one-year parts-and-labor warranty.

The Wine Enthusiast 16-Bottle Silent Wine Refrigerator - Stainless Steel (2720217) Review

The Wine Enthusiast 16-Bottle Silent Wine Refrigerator - Stainless Steel (2720217)
Average Reviews:

Never cycled despite the claims of the manual. Even when set at the highest temp, still ran continuously (sigh). So kept it at a fixed 60 F and it ran for about 14 months, and then stopped working. Out of warranty, no service offered, no parts available, out of luck and out $200. Very disappointing and so not green. One star is being generous.

12-Bottle Silent Wine Refrigerator Review

12-Bottle Silent Wine Refrigerator
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
We've had this cooler for about two years now and it has performed wonderfully.
It does produce a noticeable noise when running, so I don't think it's suitable for use in a common area. At first we had it near our entertainment area, but the noise it made while running became annoying during cards, conversation or while watching TV. It does not accommodate larger bottles, so some of the taller bottles will have to find a home elsewhere.

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

Average Reviews:

(More customer 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.

NewAir AW-180E Thermoelectric Wine Cooler With Touch Screen Review

NewAir AW-180E Thermoelectric Wine Cooler With Touch Screen
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I've only had this wine fridge for a short time, so I can't comment on its reliability (our last one which we purchased at Lowes lasted about 6 months). It looks good, is a convenient, compact size and seems to work well. But there's no way you can fit 18 bottles in it unless they're slim - such as the standard Bordeaux and Alsace shapes. The chubbier Burgundy size and anything larger just won't fit. The only way to get them in is to remove every second rack and make sure you lie slim and chubby bottles side by side. Makes it closer to a 10-12 bottle fridge.

In order to fully enjoy a bottle of wine's true aroma, it's important to keep it at the proper temperature, as serving it too cold will cause it to lose its flavor notes while excessively warm temperatures will speed up the aging process. However, whether you're a budding wine connoisseur or a true oenophile, you don't have to spend thousands of dollars building a home wine cellar. Instead, a thermoelectric wine cooler such as the NewAir AW-180E is a great, affordable way to keep your wine properly chilled.

The NewAir AW-180E thermoelectric wine cooler has an eighteen bottle capacity with digital controls that make it incredibly easy to use. The LED light provides bright contrast and the touch screen on the display is intuitive and easy to control. Moreover, an internal LED light within the NewAir AW-180E wine cooler illuminates for greater visibility so that you know exactly which bottle of wine you are pulling out.

In terms of sound, because the unit's thermoelectric technology involves very little moving parts, this results in vibration-free, silent operation that won't disturb your indoor environment. Lastly, for a touch of sophistication, the racks inside the NewAir AW-180E are chrome-plated.
For an affordable, compact, and easy-to-operate thermoelectric wine cooler with a large eighteen bottle capacity, try the NewAir AW-180E
