Selected User Reviews For STAIGIS 15 Inch Wine Refrigerator, Under Counter Wine Cooler w/Stainless Steel Frame Glass Door, 30 Bottles Wine Fridge for Built In or Freestanding with Concealed Pull Design
Good: br>Nice wooden shelvesbr>2 temperature zones, one for white wines and the other for red winesbr>Holds 36 bottles, 12 white and 24 red winesbr> Each shelf has six books. br>It has a professional appearance and does not appear to be shabby. br>br>Contrary to popular belief, br>The temperature zone setting for the upper temperature zone is a little wonky. When set to 40, it becomes 50, and when set to 44, it becomes close to 45, which is acceptable. br>Shelfs must be slid out by opening the door wide and backwards. To get bottles in and out, you must partially slide them out. br>Although 46 bottles can be crammed into it, 36 is a more practical number, with 6 bottles on each shelf. br>Wider Champaign bottles only fit in the upper shelfbr>Will not fit any magnumsbr>When I moved the door hinges to the left side, I had to shim the lower door bracket with several washers to get the door to close properly. br>Delivery took two weeks. While it was still in transit, Amazon reported it as delivered for a week. br>br>Overall, the price was very reasonable for this style and size of wine cooler, and it can be made to work well with a little fiddling.
Only a few days ago, I received the cooler. The package arrived in perfect working order! Everything functions exactly as it should. It can hold about 30 bottles of red and white wine, and the control panel is simple to use. We set the temperature to 45 degrees, and it quickly reached and maintained that temperature. It runs very quietly, which leads me to believe it isn't working at all. This one appeals to me because of the stainless steel frame and hidden handle on top. Ergonomic and stylish. br>br>So far, the machine has performed admirably. I'll tell my family and friends about it.
When we plugged it in, the led panel turned on for a brief moment before turning off. Temperature could not be set. Only one of the three fans was functioning properly. This was mentioned in the troubleshooting guide, but it directed us to a website that no longer exists; we will be returning it.
The light does not reach the bottom row, as other reviews have mentioned. LEDs mounted on the side of the building may be able to solve the issue. One unintended complication is that I didn't realize how many of my mines are slightly oversized, making loading the shelves difficult - The addition of adjustable shelves would be a significant improvement. It would also be nice if the temperature lights could be dimmed because they are extremely bright in a dimly lit environment. The aforementioned are not serious, and I'm not sure that anyone else offers units that address all of these issues, so they shouldn't be used as a reason to avoid buying, but rather as suggestions for improvement that would elevate this unit above the competition.
Larger formats can be accommodated by an attractive cooler that holds a lot of bottles. It is, however, noisier than I believe it should be, and the temperature zones appear to be inverted. The cooler white wine section is placed on top, while the red wine section is placed at the bottom. Isn't it true that warmer air rises while cooler air descends? So, even if the cooler is supposed to overcome and work toward a set temperature, it appears to me to be less efficient and more difficult to cool the top to a greater extent than the bottom.
We haven't had our cooler long and will provide an update in the coming weeks. So far, it appears to be quite nice and durable. We had a hard time finding a cooler with this much space; I like the capacity and the fact that it can be locked. It's also nice that the door doesn't have a large, protruding handle.
Counter cut out (as seen in photo), adjustable dual temperature zones, sleek appearance with built-in handle (no jutting out handle), and blue interior lighting that can be turned off. The best part is that it is so quiet that you won't even notice it is on. It was well-packaged and undamaged when it arrived.
Dual doors with one side for cans and the other for wine bottles make for an excellent design. It looked great when we bought it and put it in, but the temperatures would not stay set. The temperature in the left side of the fridge remained constant at 77 degrees, while the right side remained cooler. After a few weeks, the right side gave out as well, and it now maintains a 70-degree temperature. We will return the item indefinitely. br>br>.
