ThermoElectric 20-bottle Wine Cooler

I LOVE wine. I am in 3 wine clubs in the NAPA valley, and get around 24 bottles shipped a year. Does not include all the wine I buys at stores. I have been looking for a good deal on a quality wine fridge for over a year. This wine fridge is great! Just so you know it is the first wine fridge I've owned so i don't have a lot to compare it to, except ones that my friends of family owns. That said, unless i had over $500 to spend, i think this one is a good bang for the buck. This is what it has: A lock, a LED light, and an outside temp display to show what the temperature inside is. That's the basics. I does fit the full 20 bottles of all shapes and sizes but it isn't as pretty as the pic shows. You have to put some in backward so that they all can fit. I have Champagne, red, white, and dessert wines all in there. some are a very tight fit and i have scrapped the labels on a few shoving them in there but, hey like i said they all fit. I will tell you that is all your wines are at room temp the refrigerator took probably 3 days to get the wines all down to the lowest setting of 54 degrees. I did start with the highest setting and brought the temp down over those 3 days because on review i read said it didn't get then wine cold enough. It DID for me. I live in a house with no A/C in Northern Cali, about 80 inside on a 100 degree day outside. Because of this i wanted to make sure that some of my $70-$180 bottle of wines would stay good. I use the fridge for wines I want to store and age not my cheap everyday wines. When i put all my wines in it was a 90+ degree day and once the fridge got them all down to 54 degree it has been there ever since. I will tell you that on the hottest days it will go up about 3 or 4 degrees but 54 to 58 degrees is still acceptable for me and will not compromise the quality of the wine. So there you go. I had to read all the reviews of lots of refrigerators so I hope this one helps you make your choice easier and you are happy with that. Best regards and Happy Drinking ;) I had to read everyone's reviews because i was nervous about getting ripped off and wasting money on something that wouldn't work or last. The fridge is great, overstock is great, and you just have to make sure you put in a little extra time looking and don't have ridiculous expectation. Any one that has looked at wine refrigerators know that they can run up into the thousands of dollars, so for the price of this one you get everything you need to have to keep your wine at the right temperature.
