Best Wine Refrigerators With Reviews

I admit I was concerned about the noise of an additional refrigerator in my kitchen but Thor said, “Hold my beer!” When I first plugged in the unit, I was worried that something was wrong because it was so quiet! The unit quickly cooled down and the light that comes on when you open the door is very helpful! This is a well-built appliance and it can well packaged for shipping. We are very pleased with our new beverage center!

I purchased this fridge because it offers space for both wine and cans and it's great. The most important part is that it maintains a true temperature for both sides. I keep my most valuable wine bottles of wine in there and I've never had an issue when I take one out to enjoy. Kicker is that it works just as well on the other side. The ability to set two temperatures really comes in handy. A few weeks back I had a question about a potential noise I was hearing. I contacted customer care and in no time I had a response. I wasn't comfortable with the first answer I received, so I tried again and my concerns were resolved in the matter of an email. Finding a great product that is backed by great customer service is truly hard to find. Newair has managed to maintain both and it's impressive. It isn't often I give 5 stars, but they have earned them.

I replaced a thermoelectric cooler that stopped cooling within the 12 month period and was replaced by the company. The 2nd thermoelectric cooler stopped cooling after the 12 month warranty was up! I decided to try an inexpensive compressor cooler knowing it would probably make more noise, but hopefully last longer. I purchased the NewAir 33 bottle cooler in April and so far I am very pleased with it. The noise is more like a quiet hum - and when it reaches the desired temperature, the humming stops. If you are using it to cellar Pinot Noir or Chateauneuf du Pape - the cooler will not hold 33 bottles because of the way those bottles are shaped. The bottom storage "bin" will hold 4 bottles of that type, and you can squeeze in some of the other larger bottles on the rack, but that limits the number of other bottles you can store in it. My thermoelectric cooler had an opaque black front panel so you could not see the items in it unless you opened it or turned on the light. This cooler has a clear glass front - not a problem, but I liked the black front better. Pros: Keeps the temp where you set it. Seems reliable - but I've only had it for about a month and a half. Cons: Doesn't really fit 33 bottles if you are storing Pinot Noir style bottles. Has a slight hum when running. Door is clear glass - again, not a con unless you want one that's black.

This is a great wine cellar, streamlined, modern and perfectly suited to preserve a moderate selection of wine. In the bottom bin I've placed 2 sparkling bottles, 2 dessert wine bottles and 2 large craft beer bottles. I like the versatility this section provides. Overall performance has been excellent, with the temperature holding steady even when packed full. I highly recommend the compressor version of this cellar as opposed to the thermoelectric units for this very reason. Other pros: Nice styling, with they NewAir logo being at the bottom of the fridge in simple capital letters. (My fridge differs from the images appearing on the website.) The blue lighting is unique and provides enough illumination to find your bottle even without ambient room lighting. I also like the footprint of this cellar, it being slightly taller than most and taking up a smaller square of floor space. Additionally, the compressor noise is hardly noticeable compared with a kitchen refridgerator. My only con: the unit arrived scratched on the interior, where the bottom bin's metal fastener had come out of the mounting holes on the left side. I had to re-bend the piece back into place. However function was not effected, so no problem. Again, I highly recommend this wine cellar. Great price, excellent performance, perfect for my library/study, and it's exactly the size I wanted.

These comments are for dual zone SST black wine cooler. Looks really good, as advertised. Packaging was excellent, likely an industry best! Shipping was fast and on schedule, with good communication as to status! As said elsewhere it's a tight squeeze to get the 29 bottles in there, and if any slightly over sized bottles the count will be lower. It's very quiet which was critical for our free standing location. Everything works well with exception of precise temp control in top section - I have to put setpoint roughly 5 degrees lower than desired temp to get what I want. The bottom section seems to be spot on, though. I used multiple thermometers for the checks. There is no way to calibrate the cooler control so it'll always display the wrong temp for the top. That's only reason for deducting a star in rating. It's a nice addition to our home! Highly recommend!

First off, it arrived via Fed Ex well packed, no dents. I was a bit awestruck when I watched the delivery guy carry it, not wheel it up into my garage. Since he couldn’t bring it in the house, my neighbor, who has a dolly, and I wheeled it inside, unpacked it and placed it. All I had to do was attach the door handle and because the door was a little off kilter, I just has to loosen the bottom hinge and adjust it. It’s slotted where the screws are so it was easy to do,that and straighten the door. I then plugged it I and it fired right up. Since it’s only one zone, adjusting the temperature is easy. The temp display shows you the set temperature and the actual fridge temperature. I like that idea. I also like the strength of the wooden shelves and that they pull,out easily to put bottles on or take them out. This fridge also can accommodate champagne style bottles. I have a good supply of wine on hand so I immediately filled. It’s doing a great job at holding temperature and the fan motor is very quiet. So in summary, I am very pleased with this little fridge so far. I purchased the Wayfair protection plan and also immediately went on line and registered it. For now, time will tell how it does in the days to come.

Just had it installed a couple of days ago. This is one of the cheaper ones on the market compared to the alternatives of the same size. So far I am very happy with the result. I was concerned about the noise some reviewers mentioned but I found out it was just a little bit noisy when it was running and after it reached the set temperature it was very quiet. It is not deep enough to fit the long Riesling bottle, but I am happy it fits the thick Prosecco bottle. Only thing I am slightly disappointed is that there is only one light button to control lighting on both sides at the same time, and the light can't stay on because it will turn off automatically after a period of time, and I wish the light could be of different color(such as blue) than the regular yellow. The wine racks have wood rim, and the beverage baskets are black. Think it would look better to have stainless rim and stainless rack, but again this cooler costs several hundred dollars less than those that do have stainless rims and racks, so I really shouldn't complain. 5 stars!

This filled in the 'dead space' at the corner of our kitchen cabinets perfectly! It was packaged well and delivered quickly. It runs pretty quietly - I suppose you can hear it if there are no other sounds in the house, but it's no louder than any other modern fridge. I love that it has different temperature zones for my beverage needs and it holds a good amount (I always say, if I've got more than 18 bottles of wine that need chilling, I should either be drinking way more or way less!) If I had to get picky, the temperature display is a bit bright at night, it casts a blue glow across the room, and I do wish there were more options for adjusting the shelves. You CAN move them, which is awesome, but the spacing doesn't lend itself to beer bottles without loosing a ton of capacity - if you only drink cans though, you'll love it

This Wine Refrigerator was delivered to my door at the time and date promised. The unit is excellent for the price and the two zones can be set up for white or red. The top zone can be used without shelves and stand up for open bottles. I have an area built into my wall so I had to get a replacement that met the exact dimensions. This one is good and there is more room to spare which aids air circulation.The temperature remains consistent and my wife is very pleased. Pros: Great value, Good design and easy access to interior. Cons: No cons at this time, My previous one lasted 5 years so I hope to get that much service or more from this one

I cant speak to the long term durability, but so far everything has been great. It took about two weeks to arrive. The delivery team brought it inside even though I only paid for outside the doorway delivery. It was shipped upright and arrived on a pallet so I only waited a couple hours before plugging it in. The only assembly was screwing in the door pull. It cooled very fast once I turned it on. It fits 7 normal size wine bottles on a shelf or else only 6 on a shelf if any are oversized like champagne bottles. I currently have 27 bottles in mine and have room for at least 40 more normal sized bottles and a minimum of 35 more if some are oversized. The machine is quiet. I got it to replace a Vinotemp VT-140 which lasted 8 years but was bigger, bulkier, louder and we never came close to using that capacity. I feel like these devices are in general overpriced, but I got this one for 849 which was the best deal I could find on one this size. I am very happy, but most importantly my wife is very happy with the purchase.

I've had this refrigerator for a few weeks now. It is very nice looking, and I love the adjustable shelves. Several other reviews on this refrigerator cited inaccurate temperatures. I decided to test this out, and I have good news and bad news. I bought two digital thermometers and placed one at the top, and one towards the bottom. I set the temperature to 50. The bad news is that the top thermometer says 62, the bottom says 56. I also switched their positions at one point, just to be sure both thermometers were reading the same temperatures. The good news is that those numbers have been consistent for the past two weeks. I've adjusted the temperature a little lower, as I would like to keep my wines closer to 55 degrees. If you are a serious wine collector and would like your wine to be stored at a specific temperature, this is not the refrigerator for you. Temperatures vary throughout the refrigerator. However, if you are looking for a nice wine refrigerator and don't mind a few degrees fluctuation between the top and bottom of the fridge, this one is a good value.

Fantastic refrigerator. I have 3 different models, and this one - while more expensive - is by far the best. It's in my office, about 10 feet from my desk and in plain view. The thing is so quiet, I've taken to checking many times through the week just to see if it's actually working. The thermometer reads 55 at all times - totally consistent - though the temperature in the room swings from 65 to 75 through the day. I did fit 44 bottles in the fridge (so far). As others note, this would be more like the "Economy" section on the flight, then "first class" - jammed tight. But for storage (vs. viewing) purposes, this works just fine. If you want to see each individual bottle, you'll be closer to 30 bottles. Overall, the look is nice - brushed metal surfaces and wood tray shelves all feel like good quality. Not heirloom, but definitely not the cheap fridges either. Excellent value for the money.

So quiet we don't know it's there! We've had this cooler several months now and love it. Noise was key to us and this one delivers on that so well. We also appreciate the 2 zones. The unit is now delivered by freight carriers, not Fed Ex, and our delivery was in excellent condition, smooth process, and the delivery people couldn't have been nicer or more helpful. Setup was easy. We applied a Wayfair discount we received in the mail and this made the cooler the best price online. Very attractive with the blue light. The larger wine bottles won't fit but we wouldn't expect that. You have to reverse every other bottle to fit the maximum number. Seems to be holding the temperatures well. I found that I like whites cooler than average and set them at 42. The reds I set at 60 (which might also be a few degrees cooler than avg.). Although we don't know long term durability...and that is a big if...we highly recommend Kalamera. The price is much lower than anything of quality we saw at retail, but the cooler has performed making it a great value. And you can trust the Wayfair delivery now that it's with freight shippers.

Since 24" wide model could not fit my 21" space, I got this 15" built-in unit. It's great, with one caveat: Kalamera measures capacity using tiny 11.8" tall by 2.75" diameter bottles. Hardly any standard bottles fit that size. Normally, bottles are 12" tall by 3-3.2" diameter, and that makes a difference. Fortunately, shelf spacing is almost 3.25" (or 5.87" for the bottom shelf, but that one is depth limited to 12" because of the compressor, so it doesn't fit 13" tall Riesling bottles). In other words, standard 3-3.2" diameter bottles fit, even 13" tall, just barely, but not in the 5/shelf configuration. While shelf spacing is OK, cabinet is a bit too narrow for 5 bottles, so the best I could do with standard bottles is 4/shelf. Shelves are made of thin wood but seem sturdy enough. This cooler is very quiet in operation, particularly when it's built-in. It eventually reaches the set temperature in the center, although spots next to the door can be 5°F warmer. I'm mostly interested in keeping wine at 55°F storage temperature, so single zone is OK (serving temperature is a separate objective, achieved by 15 minutes in the fridge or on the counter). Finally, this comes well packaged, with about 1.5" of Styrofoam on all sides and 2" on top and bottom, which are further protected by plasticized cardboard. While there were scuff marks on the box, no internal damage! Well done. In summary, a very good wine cooler (so far). Taking off one star for rating capacity by smaller-than-typical wine bottles. I haven't been able to find any wine (white or red) in bottles that small. This might fit ~24 typical bottles but not 30. Sufficient for me, but be aware. See photos.

We are renovating our kitchen and this wine cooler was the “perfect perk” to make it special. It arrived perfectly packed. We let it settle for 24 hours before sliding it into a cabinet on the side of the sink. It takes a full 34” height and 12” wide so it fits as it should and you can level it as needed. We had electric at this location but still had an electrician install a separate outlet (plug is a 3 prong plug). We set the cooler at 58 degrees and let it sit overnight. Once we had a constant 58 degree temp we put our wine in and set the temp as desired. Be sure to let your unit settle for 24 hours after shipping, move it carefully, level it, plug into a 3 prong outlet (no extension cords), set temp and let unit cool empty overnight and then fill it up!

Good luck finding an affordable large-capacity wine refrigerator. I'm a novice collector and my current 70-btl. inventory was threatened when the compressor in my $500 8-year old Vintage unit (no longer in production) expired. I was dismayed at the dearth of wine storage units on the market emphasizing functional storage over appearance and unnecessary features, but this Wayfair unit seemed to represent a good balance for my purposes. The unit was delivered within a few days, but I made the mistake of selecting the free delivery option: The unit comes fully assembled and weighs 160 lbs. plus packing material, and there was no way my wife and I could transport it into the house and down a narrow stairway to our basement location, but the Wayfair customer service people were extremely helpful in arranging for two guys from Handy to get the job done for no more than I would have paid in the first place. My advice: Choose your delivery option carefully! The unit accommodates 92 bottles as advertised; read the directions on how to load the unit!! The shelves are removable and they slide out far enough to see what's in the front row, but I keep a separate chart showing the location of each bottle because they're packed in tight, it's impossible to see what's in the rear row of each shelf, and it's not a good idea to be constantly moving things around (vibration is not your friend). I'm very pleased with the temperature accuracy of the unit, but I keep both zones in the mid-50s and I can't comment on the efficacy of the 2-zone temperature, an unnecessary feature for my purposes. This was my first experience with Wayfair and it will not be my last.

Have had this refrigerator for about 1 week. Appears to hold temperature well and is quiet. So far very satisfied. As noted in description and reviews the capacity is only 100 bottles if they are claret type bottles (Burgundy, Rhone and oversized bottles will lower capacity. However, regarding delivery - VERY disappointed that for paying an extra $20 for in house delivery only was delivered to garage. While this is due to COVID protocol, that is not how this option was advertised. Therefore, had to move into house on own. Also, interesting that manual says to let sit at least 4 hours but Wayfair says 24 hours (via a text that arrived a day AFTER delivery). I let stand for over 24 hours and as noted above so far excellent results.

Overall, very happy with the purchase so far (after 1 month). For the quality, price and size it’s a decent price. Pros This is a very nice looking fridge. Looks pretty fancy. Quiet operation is appreciated. Well built, quality fridge. Keeps temp relatively constant. Comes assembled except for the door handle which is a piece of cake, two screws. Cons Wish it displayed the actual temperature instead of the temperature I set it at. Humidity control is an issue. I put 2 different brands of thermometers and hygrometers in both sections and the humidity fluctuates quite a bit. Temp stays between 50-60 when I set it to 53 degrees, which is good enough, although still a large range. Humidity needs to stay between 50-70 degrees and it goes over that sometimes, especially in the top section. Even into the 80’s which isn’t good. I’ve found that keeping the room you are storing it in between 65-75 degrees helps maintain the correct levels. I also bought some moisture absorbers which helped a little. If the room gets hotter or colder than that, the fridge will struggle to maintain temperature and humidity.

my previous Whynter unit ran out of space after a recent spree and it was about time to fully upgrade my storage space. This is the biggest full size fridge I could find. Since I had a good experience (7 years to date) with my last unit, I decided that I would be well served with a large version. It arrived on a truck and I was ready with a slot in my kitchen. Installation was tight due to the size, but it fit perfectly and looked spectacular sitting flush with the cabinets. It's massive. I'm about 40% full at the moment and this will likely keep me open for about 3 more years of collecting at a saner pace. Easy to use and configure for bottle size. The temperature consistency is the what I like best about it. At most 3 degrees fluctuation top to bottom. It isn't completely silent, but it's whisper quiet. I'm good wit this.

We purchased this as a replacement for our old wine fridge which no longer keeps the temp stable and sometimes had issues with the shelves making lot of sounds. We're worried that it may break down soon as we're also no longer covered with warranty, we decided to just buy a new one instead. This was the wine fridge we got, had some good reviews and pretty much had the same size with our old one. Delivery was on time and this unit performs much better. Its comparatively quiet and shelves can be easily pulled. We're glad that we chose this wine fridge. It's a great investment for us.
