Ratings & Reviews for Cafe 23.75-in W 46 -Bottles Stainless Steel with Brushed Stainless Handles Dual Zone Cooling Built-in/Freestanding Indoor Wine Cooler

Better than expected

Well this is now our second Cafe appliance. We replaced a 20 yr old 2 zone dual door wine cooler that has server us well aside from overheating on occasion and generating a ton of heat on the surrounding cabinets and counter top. We weee afraid this unit might exhibit many of the same symptoms, but to our surprise, it doesn’t. As a matter of fact, it is exactly the opposite. To make things even better, we no longer need to jam the larger bottles like Chardonnay into racks that don’t fit those bo...

Racking system is marginal for me

The shelving spacing is extremely tight for sparkling wine bottles. I have to use the single shelf that designed for magnums and even then, with some bottles by the time you put 4 in place the nest 'slot' has to be skipped. Although the concept of rollout shelves is good, I'd rather have a simpler and more flexible racking system.

Attractive addition to kitchen

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This beverage cabinet offers me more space for my wine then my previous cabinet. The only minor drawback is that large bottles only fit on the top rack unless racks are removed.

Great wine fridge

So pretty and holds a lot. Love the dual zones and the backlight

Very stylish, but the bottles get stuck everywhere

Except for the top shelf, whenever you pull out a shelf, the others tend to come along with it, which can damage the bottles. Very disappointing for the price paid. Not recommended.

The worst purchase

We overpaid for a wine fridge that struggles to hold normal size wine bottles. We didn’t realize how many bottles are slightly bigger than others. They get caught and the labels rip or they won’t fit at all unless on the top shelf, and that only holds 8 bottles. This renders 80% of the wine fridge useless. We regret this decision every single day.

Poorly designed, won't fit most sized bottles.

I bought this to match my other Cafe appliances and it looks pretty from the outside. Inside it is very poorly designed. It will not fit anything other than a slender wine bottle so forget champagne. We go so tired, we finally just removed shelves to make things fit and lost a ton of storage room. I don't mind this, but there is a sensor light on this that you cannot turn off.

Bottle capacity 50% of advertised

If you are intending to utilize the advertised capacity of this wine refrigerator, beware. The shapes of 750 ml wine bottles vary based on the type of wine they contain, with the differences largely rooted in tradition, function, and regional winemaking practices. Each shape serves practical and historical purposes, signaling to consumers what kind of wine is inside. It is common for bottle shapes to be slightly larger, have high shoulders versus low shoulders or tapered necks. Some bottles ar...

Best of 20 units reviewed

Sleek with no protruding handle, back lit panel is amazing for lightning the wine bottles. Extremely quiet operation. Sorry they discontinued this unit.

Sturdy & Quiet

Awesome product. Very sturdy. Very quiet. Very easy to set up.

Relible

Performing solidly so far. Maintains temperature well.

Looks good but...

Then spaces are hard to hold a large body bottle. We make it work but not perfect. Looks sleek though

SLEEK DESIGN

This wine fridge works great and looks amazing. Love the back light and how the drawer pull out with ease. Great addition to my Cafe collection!

Great design

This wine center looks very nice in my kitchen and the layout is very smart, allowing me to put many bottles of different sizes to maximize the space.

Bad design

Doesn’t hold the about of bottles as advertised. Any thicker bottle or Pinot bottle will not fit

Great features!

We love our cafe wine fridge. The shelves slide in and out with ease. The temperature of the wine is perfect! Best of all, the bottles fit in, in opposite directions with no wasted space!

Ron

Havent used it for a long enough time, In time I will get a good sense

Great look and feel on this fridge

We added this fridge to our new kitchen design. We love it! Keeps our main fridge much less full of drinks and cans and more storage for other stuff. The build quality is great on this thing. Nice heavy duty door, and good solid hinges. It doesn't feel cheap. The backlighting on the inside is a really nice touch. Also WIFI features are handy. Not totally necessary, but handy.

Beautiful Wine Cooler

Great cooler that gives us plenty of room for our wine and allows us to set two temperature zones. We love the back light on a motion detector!

Great temperature

I love the looks, lighting, and great temp accuracy.
