What Others Say
Expected problems - got none
Reading all the bad reviews caused concern. Then I noted those reviews were before the company got it act together. My wine refridge arrived well packed and clean of any deficts. I love the fact that the two sides (17 bottles each) has separate temp controls. I have some 20 plus year old reds which I need to keep stabilized so have them on one side at 51 degrees. The younger reds are kept at 59 to allow them to mature a little faster. Great looking product also. Couldn't be happier.
Needs Better Packaging
After reading all the reviews I decided to take a chance and buying the wine cooler. If this were Las Vegas I have lost. The outer box only had two small pieces of Styrofoam on the sides protecting the inner box. There were many rips and tarries on the outer box, which looked like it was beat-up during shipping. The inner layer box was in good condition and I was crossing my fingers for no damage. Unfortunately I was wrong, the damage on the refrigerator looked like it had been dropped because the left door is extremely bent. I am now working on my replacement and hoping this one will be in better shape with better packaging.
My advice for the Vinotemp Company is to use better packaging, A LOT MORE use of styrofome, "this side ... Read More
Horrible wine refrigerator
I ordered this wine refrigerator in May for my husband as a surprise - about a month after ordering, the temperature control panel on one side of the refrigerator stopped working and you couldn't change the temperature. Vinotemp sent repairmen to fix it and they ordered a new part but it still doesn't work. We were told by Vinotemp that they would give us a new refrigerator, but only if we paid to ship the old one back, further escalating the cost of a product that has been nothing but trouble. Now the other side of the refrigerator's temperature control panel is broken and the temperature is now too cold to even store wine in. All in all a complete disaster.
Good Unit at a Great Price
Purchased the unit about eight weeks ago. It arrived quickly, packaging could have been stronger but the unit was undamaged. Very satisfied with the cooling and quietness. Shelving could be better quality. Tested for consistency of cooling throughout both sides of unit using refrigerator thermometers; middle and back of unit yielded best results and were fairly consistent from the top of the unit to the bottom. Given the price, it is an overall very good value.
Poor quality
Presently using the second wine cooler after the first one broke right before the warranty ran out. Both units malfunctioned by allowing the temperature to lock in at around 45 degrees. Amazon was very responsive in replacing the first unit, unfortunately the second unit broke right after the warranty ran out. Both units arrived with dents, even with the enforced packaging. Certainly will not buy a product from Vinotemp again.
