This product was just the right size. It worked fine for three days and then quit dead. [...] I might try to order this item again in case it was just one bad apple but I would definitely do business with the vendor in the future. Read more

does not function as advertised

gerry from tucson, az

I would not have purchased this item had I known the following information: Koolatron's web site information on this unit states the following: "...the 6 Bottle Wine Cellar allows you to easily select any temperature between 44F and 64F...". It was this information that sold me on the unit. However, it does not work as stated. The cooling temperatures are fixed, 57 degF for the Red Wine setting and a colder one for the white wine setting (I don't know the actual temperature for the white wine setting because I only drink reds). There is no way to adjust the temperature differently. I find 57 degF way too cold for the heavier red wines I drink. Thus, I have to let the bottle sit at room temperature for a while before I can drink the wine. Very inconvenient. This is a good unit if you like the pre-set fixed temperature settings, 57 degF for the red wine setting (I don't know what it is for the white wine setting because I don't drink white wine).

Marion from Charleston, SC

Initially, I was very happy with this cooler. After nine months the voltage device on the back went bad. Seller was no help, so got data off adapter in CA. They had to order it from China. Cost $50. Eight months later it quit working as well. The only solution, is to simply buy a new one every few years. Prices vary from $126 to $199! Read more

Joe from Memphis, TN

The unit stopped after six months. Customer service suggested they sell me a replacement motor. After several calls to custormer service and the engineering people seeking help in getting access to the motor I concluded there is no way to install a new motor, because a large piece of styrafoam that had to be removed apparently was glued and unremoveable. I gave up and discarded the cooler. Read more

Mer the cooler from Des Moines, IA

This was a gift for my girlfirend and she absolutely loves it. The design is perfect and compact to leave on the kitchen counter. She is a huge wine person and just couldn't believe I surprised her with it. It fits perfect in our kitchen, just the right dimensions. Love the handle design and the light although wish it wasn't yellow, maybe purple or something cool. Read more
