NutriChef 18-Bottle Wine Cooler Refrigerator - Keep Your Wine at the Perfect Temperature!

Christopher Ferris: The product is great, quiet and works fantastic. I accidentally stripped the screws and the handle by overtightening them and the company replaced them for free!

jun: This wine cooler has been working well -- the price does sometimes go up when you open the door, etc., but overall it is quiet and holds the temperature pretty well. It is somewhat compact so it does not hold larger bottles (champagne, burgundy) as well as I would like to, but for normal bottles, it is a great option.

Travis B.Travis B.: I have the 18 and the 24 models. The 18 has been great for almost a year now. So I needed more fridge, and got the 25 model. Both get the job done well and quietly. Thanks NutriChef.

Dazzle DrillerDazzle Driller: Updated 7/12/2023: I'm nearly 2 months into my purchase and I'm really pleased! We discovered the slightly rattling noise was just an inner mechanism touching the panel and by pushing it slightly, it's now silent. I truly don't notice most times when the condenser kicks on. I haven't noticed an abnormal increase in my power bill by adding this appliance. I'm still not convinced the temperature is accurate. I keep this at 46 degrees but honestly I feel like my white and sparkling wines aren't quite as cold as that. Anytime I open the door, it will immediately lose the cold air so I try to be quick with my selection.

In my opinion, the light inside is pretty useless. I never use it. Between the weakness of the bulb and the tint of the door, it's not really easy to see what I have. It's pretty much only to see how many bottles there are but I can't really read labels well without opening the door. Overall, I'm very pleased. No regrets so far!

Original Review:
Ok - it's been running for just under 24 hours under my kitchen counter. Here are my first impressions from your average wino:

- I'm very sensitive to noise and I think this is pretty quiet. It's not any...

DaveDave: Elegant & slim wine fridge with an actual compressor! Works better in warmer climates than cheaper thermoelectric variants. Fits most of our red, white, and champagne bottles. Removable racks for larger bottles and opened bottles can sit angled at the bottom with a carved-out groove for the neck. This is definitely one to get if you are short on space as it doesn't require you to leave any room around the back and sides for ventilation as compared to thermoelectric models.

Tanya Fader: Easy to set up and set temperature. Perfect size for small space living. Sleek design.

Alexander J. Russell: Had it running for a few months now, no issues at all. It looks nice, and is fairly quiet. Not nearly as loud as a regular fridge, but it does have a compressor and you can hear it when it turns on. I wouldn't put it in a bedroom, but it is quiet enough to put in most rooms.

You have to pull the rubber seal out of the door to install the handle. The seal is in there pretty good, but if gently and insistently pull at it, it does come out. Once the seal is out putting the handle on is easy.

M5: I've only had this for a few days, but here are my initial impressions. The unit is aesthetically nice looking and will fit into a bar environment or anywhere in plain sight. Putting on the handle is a bit of a pain, but you'll get through it.

My biggest issue is that it is LOUD. The hum is overpowering in the room and there's an additional sound like raindrops falling on a tin roof. The marketing line of "Silent, Ultra Quiet, Will Not Disturb" is 100% not true. It drives us crazy. We have another bar fridge and a small mini fridge and they are both fairly quiet. This wine fridge is the loudest I have ever heard. Completely disturbing to anyone in the same room. To make matters worse, it cycles on constantly. I'm talking literally every 3-5 minutes it turns on and runs for 2-3 minutes. That tells me that the insulation is horrible, or it's leaking cold air somewhere, or it's just not efficient.

So for these reasons -- loudness and constantly running -- I would not recommend this unit. If this continues I can see why others have had issues with them stopping working. It will burn out quickly I fear.
