We bought this fridge because of the huge coupon offered on Prime Day and were not disappointed! It looks amazing in our new wine bar, and keeps our wines to the perfect temperature (we prefer our chilled wines on the colder side). It is quiet, has a key for locking when we have younger guests around, and had a pretty blue light I keep on as a nightlight in the kitchen. I would definitely recommend this product for its affordability, sleek design, and great quality overall!

Great little fridge. Keeps the temperature constant and stable. Easy to assemble.

I was a bit hesitant to buy this chiller because of a number of complaints logged here but then thought of the many times I've bought items on Amazon that worked perfectly and later deleted the email from Amazon asking me to review the product. If I had been sold a piece of junk, I would have been much more motivated to write a bad review. Given that this chiller is pretty pricey, I decided I should file a review from a satisfied customer.We were looking for a wine chiller to replace the trash compactor that we, as empty nesters, no longer found useful. With as little trash as the two of us generate, it makes sense to move it out of the kitchen every other day. The idea of adding a wine chiller was appealing to us from the angle of freeing up refrigerator space. My wife likes reds chilled as much as whites and it turns out that several types of reds are best served chilled (see the article about this in Consumer Reports).The chiller arrived in good shape with a box in a box and a layer of styrofoam surrounding the actual appliance. It fit into the compactor space perfectly but took a little more of the depth and width than the compactor did. We had our electrician install a "slim" box for the electrical plug on the side of the island to allow the chiller to slide past it. He also turned the electrical box inside the compactor space sideways in order to accommodate plugging in the chiller because the chiller is a little deeper than the compactor. All of that took about an hour and a half.The temperature control seems consistent. It can be set as low as 40 degrees F. That's where we keep it because we also keep beers and soft drinks in it. For those reds and whites that need to be poured at 50 degrees, just pull the bottle out early or let the glass sit for 5 minutes.I recommend the unit without reservations. Do pay attention to the warning that you should allow the chiller to sit upright for a couple of hours before plugging it in if it has been sitting on its side. Running it without the refrigerant in the right place can damage the unit.

This is a "first impression" review as our wine cooler just arrived about 2 hours ago. After about 2 minutes attaching the handle (packed inside to protect it during shipment), the cooler was ready to go. It cooled down to 45 degrees within minutes and to my (slightly older ears) was virtually dead silent - well below the background noise of the house interior. With the blue LED internal light on - the unit looks GREAT and is very impressive. The ONLY reason it is not rated 5 stars here - is the vertical spacing between the shelves - it is simply TOO SMALL for many of the wider bottles of Chardonnay that we have. There is absolutely NO WAY of storing 5 bottles per shelf (even 3 are difficult to get in and almost impossible to get out - without scoring the label) - which is what the cooer is designed to do - with the longer (sauvignon blanc) type bottle - which it does - but we had to remove every other shelf to get the larger bottles to actually slide in.There are only two viable solutions to this - (design recommendation to the manufacturer). 1 is to use a different material for the shelves and make them THINNER - OR - 2 - (preferred) since the lowest shelf has LOTS of extra room - use some of that to widen the spacing of the remaining shelves - it only needs about 1/4 MORE to be PERFECT - and actually hold the "fatter" bottles - and there will still be some extra height for the lowest shelf.

I have only had the wine cooler plugged in for 24 hours but I am very pleased with the unit so far. The shipment arrived with no bumps or bruises, so I was very happy to be able to use it right away. I've set the temperature at 55 and have not been able yet to double check that with a thermometer, but it definitely feels like it's at a great cooling temperature.Some of the reviews have noted that you have to bend down to see the display, but unless you get a full size unit that is much taller, how else would you be able to see it? I love the look of the wooden shelves; I don't plan on putting 30 bottles in there so the capacity works for me. I like the fact the the bottom shelf allows for those bigger bottles that might not fit on the upper shelves.The unit is extremely quiet, I don't notice any noise at all.The only thing that I think would be a great idea is for the manufacturer to send their logo in the box that's included in the package which would allow for the purchaser to add it to the front of the door when it's determined whether or not the door hinges need to be changed. I will need to flip the door and the Kalamera logo will be upside down so I'll have to try to remove it.The wine cooler will go into custom cabinetry for a kitchen remodel project, so I'm looking forward to seeing how it will complement the kitchen design.Overall I think this is an excellent value & a great choice for a compact wine cooler ... I'm very happy with the purchase!
