Review of dual temp wine fridge Dec 28, 2008
By Linda M. West
The unit has a nice feature of being able to store white and red wines at your selected temp. The size is very good and was perfect for the area we wanted to place it. It holds the selected temp just fine but if the power is interupted you will need to reset your settings. It does have a few shortcomings... It is much louder than a standard fridge given it's size. The shelves that you must use to remove a bottle don't fit very well at all and they will drop out of their slots while in use. These wood shelves are all very cheaply made. The LED lights inside are all but useless. The door must be opened fully (180 degrees) in order to slide out a shelf to remove the bottle. We have a GE unit in another location that is a much better unit but only has single selected temp. It did cost nearly twice what this unit did.
If/when it dies I will not replace it with this brand or model. It proved to point that you get what you pay for.

 BUYER BEWARE! Sep 15, 2008
By Michele Martise
We have no beef with Amazon.com - in fact they were very accomodating and quick to replace our first Vinotemp wine refrigerator, with a SECOND Vinotemp wine refrigerator (and they Fed Ex'd it at Amazon's cost).
In both instances, the Vinotemp refrig arrived with a big dent in the back of the refrig. We couldn't detect any indentations in the surrounding styrofoam so we concluded it was leaving the VINOTEMP factory like that (nice quality control, Vinotemp!). Also, since we only saw a photo of this product online, we weren't aware of how cheap it looks up close and personal. The fact that both times we received a damaged VINOTEMP was actually a blessing in disguise.
We ended up buying a Haier wine refrigerator for a few dollars less and it holds 15 more bottles - and is superior quality. Whew.
P.S. Also at one point during our decision making process, I called Vinotemp directly to ask some product point questions. I spoke to two different representatives and it was obvious that NEITHER one knew what she was talking about. I had an unsettled feeling about that, but we went forward anyways.
Again, damaged VINOTEMP out of the factory (2x) = blessing in disguise!

Thermostat failed Dec 05, 2009
By David
Thermostat stopped working after 2 months. Refrigerator still cools, but cannot set the temp. and the temp. changes on its own. Also, makes a weird noise now. I finally just unplugged it.
I will now need to buy another brand to replace this one. Don't waste your money on this one.

Awful product Oct 02, 2009
By Maud
"Maud"
1. The Vinotemp wine cooler arrived damaged.
2. It looks cheap (although I liked the blue lights). Having to open the door all the way is annoying .
3. The wood racks are difficult to slide out.
4. The temperature doesn't stay down when summer comes (now I know why after reading the comment from another reviewer: no compressor)
5. The unit broke down 15 months after I bought it. Repair cost: $400. Forget about it, I'm junking it!

Junk Nov 02, 2008
By IDS5
This unit is a piece of junk. First, when I opened the door it made a clicking noise. Second, the shelves are extremely flimsy. The wooden shelves slide into the side of the fridge. The top shelve was about a half inch short in width and kind of sagged after putting three bottles in. Third, the center control panel was crooked. I measued the control panel and it was off by an 1/8". You could see by looking at the unit that it was off by a little bit. I was so disappointed with this unit I returned it. I purchased the unit from Best Buy as they have it for $249.00. I would not recommend buying this unit. Just another piece of junk built in CHINA!
