5.0 out of 5 stars Mother in law loves this
Reviewed in the United States on June 4, 2024
We got this so my mother in law could store her wine easier and keep them in a cooler place. This fit right in the area where we wanted it and the controls were easy to use. It has the tinted front so you don't have to worry about a lot of light going through it. It runs quiet enough that it doesn't bother anyone in the house. We are able to put quite a bit of bottles in and lay them on their sides.

5.0 out of 5 stars Six Months Later, Still Works Like New
Reviewed in the United States on March 28, 2019
This Ivation model is perfect for us. My boyfriend and I are novice wine enthusiasts with precious little real estate in our 632 square ft apartment. We wanted a wine cooler that would preserve a few bottles until they were ready to drink a few years down the road and have enough space for our rotating selection. We needed something slender and discreet - both in terms of noise and light. I can't stand waking up at night to an apartment full of bright little lights staring at me. This model has a constant blue display of the temperature that's bright enough to see from across the room but doesn't glare at you. Another plus is its electricity usage - surprisingly efficient. I thought our electricity bill would jump given even though this is a thermoelectric model. It did, of course, but far less than I anticipated. Another thing I like about it is the rack size - it's perfect for any bottle you'd expect to find, whether its a slender riesling or a bottom-heavy pinot noir. And while the racks aren't designed to slide out, they come in and out of their supports pretty easily.

I have two small complaints. The first is the temperature reader. Since I unwrapped it, I've had it set to a consistent 55 degrees F and never changed it. Sometimes the temperature would mysteriously go up 3-7 degrees and just hover there, even though I hadn't disturbed the refrigerator or opened the doors at all. This happened in the summer as well as the winter, so it makes me wonder if the temperature reader is a little buggy and the temperature inside is actually fine. None of my wine has spoiled, so it's not enough to knock off a star.

The second complaint is that you cannot put anything on top of it. At all. In a moment of absent-mindedness I put 3-5 magazines on top of it on evening and within a few hours it was freaking out. The motor was whirring audibly for the first time and the temperature reader indicated that the inside had heated up by a few degrees. I took off the magazines and it quickly calmed down. (To be fair, the manual does warn you against doing this - I'm mentioning it here to let you know that they really mean it.)

Pros:
- Convenient size - fits discreetly next to my bookshelf
- Absolutely no noise most of the time
- Minimal bright lights
- Cost effective - didn't increase my electricity bill a ton
- Rack size accommodates a variety of bottle types

Cons:
- Odd temperature fluctuations - Goes up randomly even though it hasn't been disturbed, regardless of temperature. Also takes a long time to cool back down after you open it - maybe 30-60min.
- Can't put anything on top of it.

Bottom line: If you are tight on space and money but still want to indulge your love of wine, this model is excellent value.

1.0 out of 5 stars Died after a year
Reviewed in the United States on July 27, 2024
Wine cooler died a year and two weeks after purchase. Fans won’t turn on and temperature is above 80. Hoping I caught it before my expensive bottles from Napa and France spoiled. Would not recommend thermoelectric coolers, stick with a compressor based cooling device. They last longer and are more reliable.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Product at a Good Price Point
Reviewed in the United States on October 17, 2018
Our old wine chiller died after years of service. I had already replaced the fan once (12 VDC computer fan) but finally the electronics on the speed control died, and the chiller would not chill. We immediately decided to purchase another one with a little larger capacity. The old one held six bottles and this new one holds eight. The product arrived in perfect shape and was very easy to unpack. The wine chiller lives in the basement so any noise it makes does not bother us in the least, however this chiller is very quiet and fits nicely into the space occupied by the old chiller. The chiller immediately started up and after reading the instructions I set the temperature to our preferred temperature and it started to cool. In a few hours I went down and the temperature was exactly at 46 degrees. I purchased this model because it would chill down to 46 which is the temperature we like wine at. I know that the wine experts like reds at one temperature and whites at another, but my wife and I like it all at the cooler temperature. I do like this model because the taller champagne bottles fit in it, where our older chiller was not deep enough for them to fit. All in all it was a good purchase at a fair price. I did use Amazon points from my Amazon credit card so it turned into a really great price. I just hope it lasts as long as the old one did.

Reviewed in the United States on October 20, 2023
I bought this wine chiller to put my homemade Limoncello in (not much of a wine drinker) and not only is it a beautiful chiller but it keeps our favorite Italian drink nicely chilled at a perfect 46 degree temperature! The chiller will hold regular size 750mil wine bottles, two on each rack. The bottle you see in the pic is a homemade bottle of limoncello in a 750mil CHAMPAGNE bottle, which is slightly thicker and shorter than the average wine bottle, so don't use my champagne bottle as a guide as you won't be able to fit 2 of those on a rack. I'm in the process of buying empty wine bottles from Amazon. CHEERS!
