This is our 1st. We did a lot of reading as well as talking with individuals about the pros & cons of single vs dual zone fridges. Most we spoke to agreed that a single zone is fine. fWe use it for both reds and whites. We keep the temp at 56, perfect for red and then when we know we'll be drinking white, we'll pull it out and just put it in the regular fridge for about 30 minutes.

Love this wine cooler! It is the perfect fit for me because I needed something small enough to fit in the only space I had. We recently went to Italy & purchased delicious bottles of wine & I didn't want to keep them in a wine rack. When I found this wine cooler online it had everything I needed!

I picked this up when it was being offered for a special price and I am very happy with it so far. It is fairly quiet, but not silent when cooling due to the fan in the back. It seems to hold the temperature well though and seems to be efficient. I like that it holds 12 bottles and has an internal LED light which can be turned on via the touch panel controls but I still usually need to open the door to see the bottles. It does not have room for any upright bottles, but not a deal breaker for me. I mostly was in need of better temperature control for the nicer wines we have. We do not have a big collection nor do we have room for it, but we do have a few more expensive wines on hand. I keep it set at 59F which seems like a good compromise between the optimum temps for whites and reds. This is a good size and sits next to the kitchen cabinets without sticking out past the front of the cabinet and with a few inches between it and the wall in back to allow for air circulation.

This is a very nice cooler that is so silent, I wasn't sure I plugged it in! It's small and compact and the door seal appears to be very tight. The only complaint is regarding setting the temperature. It's a little tricky, but once you get the hang of it, it's fine. Just remember to hold the lock button until it beeps to set and then the temperature will adjust, albeit slowly. The temp cools more quickly than it warms, so be patient. It will adjust.. One last note before you buy - it's buried a bit farther down in the description, but this cooler holds 16 standard 750 ml bottles. If you are a sparkling wine or pinot lover, buy a bigger capacity cooler because you'll need to remove a shelf to store those size wines.
