Since this unit does not have a compressor, one thing to keep in mind is that this unit will only cool to about 25-30 degrees below the ambient tempurature. We keep our air at about 80, so the the unit will only cool to about 50-55 degrees.
We replaced an old trash compactor. This unit requires a small stand about 4" tall to properly fit under the counter top. I built mine with an exhaust fan to force the air out through my stove exhaust. Allowing me to finish out the fit without large gaps.
Keep the lights off inside. They look cool but they are bad for keeping the wine. As a matter of fact, I tinted the glass door to keep the ambient kitchen light out as much as possible. I wish the manufacturer would have used a dark glass.

I agree with others, bad shelving, & door opening issues. In addition my temperature display lights are half burned out, of course 30 days after the warranty expired. Very poor customer service. They know they have a dud. There hoping it goes away.
Cool look- and operation; great customer service. March 8, 2008

The only problem I have has been mentioned, and that is that the door must be open more than 90 degrees to slide the rack out. I think a slight redesign could fix that. If they moved the rubber seal from the door to the cooler, it would solve it, but there could be issues with that I'm not seeing.
I like the digital readouts, and love the blue-white LED interior lights. The fact that larger (cheaper?) bottles only fit on the bottom rack is standard for wine coolers. If you made all the racks to accommodate large bottles, it would be a 15 bottle fridge.
After several months of ownership, one bar in the temp LED stopped working. Unfortunately, it was the middle bar of the '6' so it showed all the time for my reds. I called Vinotemp and they were going to send someone to fix it!!! --to my house! I asked them to send the part, they did, and I easily replaced it.
I think it was a great product for the price, with great service.
 Absolute GARBAGE (NEGATIVE Stars!) March 6, 2008

Do NOT waste your money -- DO NOT buy this junk!
This wine refrigerator is piece of garbage. I should know as I have had TWO and both broke within weeks. The second one is no longer covered under the warranty (I purchased it at the 'manufacturer,' though the fridge says 'made in China' on the back, and Vinotemp only offered a 3 month warranty). Also, as a previous reviewer stated, the wooden shelves are flimsy and ridiculous! The company, Vinotemp, is HORRIBLE to work with! They are mean and nasty and completely unhelpful. Do yourself a huge favor and buy a quality product from a quality brand. You really DO get what you paid for! NEGATIVE STARS FOR VINOTEMP!
Thermostat problems February 27, 2008

Stainless and glass door design is very nice as are wood shelves although they are flimsy as noted by other reviews. Unfortunately we've already had thermostat repaired under warranty once (within 30 days of purchase) and it has gone bad again. As such the item is not recommended. Wishing we'd have purchased the Kenmore wine cellar as recommended by Consumer Reports.
