The Antarctic Star 36 Bottle Wine Cooler/Cabinet Beverage Refrigerator is an ideal choice for those looking for a small, mini wine cellar. It has a reinforced glass door with an airtight seal to help maintain an ideal humidity level and an advanced cooling system to keep your beverages at the perfect temperature. Plus, the inside is illuminated with a beautiful blue soft LED lighting. With its quiet operation compressor and adjustable temperature, this freestanding black fridge is the perfect addition to any countertop bar. With its superior customer support, capacity, size, and design, this wine cooler is one of the best on the market.Crista S. Forest: This seems like an excellent beverage fridge so far. I put in a separate thermostat and it is, so far, reading the same as the temp setting. I'm not sure what the noise complaints are about. Yes, you can hear it. It's not silent. But it's pretty quiet. No noisier than my main fridge, or my previous mini fridge. I also don't understand the complaints about the sides getting hot. Do you understand science? You put warm objects in a device that makes them cool. That device has to send that warmth somewhere. This cooler is designed to pull heat from the air inside, and the things you put inside, and remove that heat. What do you expect it to do with that heat? It has to go somewhere. It is designed to dissipate that heat out of the side walls. A little Googling would explain to you that this is perfectly normal for a fridge, especially when first starting or loading it. You cannot remove heat without creating heat. If you can't understand that basic concept, you need to go back and take High School Science 101. Heat on the sides does NOT mean the fridge is defective. It is necessary for cooling what's inside. It cools down once it reaches the set temperature. it's functioning normally...

SteveSteve: After reading a lot of reviews on this mini fridge, I was very skeptical. However, there were some slight issues, but none of which were with the product.
Amazon delivered my fridge upside down so the Freon took a lot longer to cool before I can plug it in.
I waited approximately eight hours before plugging it in.
The mini fridge is a little smaller than I anticipated it would be. However, the metal racks seem to be just fine. It seals with no issue and after testing it with two bottles of water from room temperature. They are ice cold. (Actually made ice crystals) The motor is incredibly quiet to the point where I can’t hear it. And you can turn off the light, so it doesn’t bother you at night.
I am very pleased with this purchase and highly recommend it. I have no issues that’s far but it has only been 24 hours but now I have ice cold water.
(Yes literally ice cold)

kgbs: The top rack will only take 2 bottles and it is difficult to stack and keep in place 4 bottles on the bottom. There is a projection from the top that prevents inserting two bottles in the center of the rack. you can take the top rack out and stack 3 bottles on top of the second rack bottles. So I would essentially regard this as a 21 bottle wine fridge.

OntheBeach: Product arrived well packed and undamaged. We let it sit for more than 24 hours to allow the coolant to settle. It hasn't cooled below 45 degrees so far, and I had to set it on the coldest setting to achieve that. ( We placed a refrigerator thermometer inside so we could monitor it, otherwise there isn't a way to know what temperature is reached.)
The glass door is easy to see through, and there is a purplish light so you can view the contents. Unfortunately, there is a large amount of condensation on the glass and we will need to relocate it to an area of the house where hardwood floor isn't, which isn't going to be convenient for our use. Early days though.

Bobby scott: Keeps things cold, love the light. But it is noisy

MV: I use it mainly for pop cans and bottled water. Wait for at-least 24 hours before operating. I have seen the delivery man flipped the box over multiple times.
Noise: It produces noise that is similar to an air condition unit. It does not bother our sleep, but it is noticeable. The noise is very dependent on the outside temp. The warmer the ambience, the longer it needs to run, which then produces the noise.
Temperature: I set it between 1 and 2- it keeps all drinks very cold, considering it is relatively full (around 24 cans).
Light: It comes with a blue/purple LED light. I believe it can be controlled by an on/off switch. It is not very bright, it just gives a little aesthetics.
Size: Dimensions provided are accurate. It is a countertop cooler and needs spaces around for ventilation.
Cord: It is long enough, don't worry about it.
I gave 4 stars because the door opening is on the left. I am not sure if I can switch it on the other side, the manual did not mention it.
