ROVSUN 18 Bottle Wine Fridge, Freestanding Compressor Wine Cooler Refrigerator, Beverage Wine Chiller with Digital Temperature Control & Double-layer Glass Door for Red White Wine, Champagne, Beer

Looked at a bunch of cabinet height wine fridges, and this one seemed to meet our needs and wants the best. Thermocouple cooling doesn't get cold enough for our preferences, so I wanted one with a compressor and refrigerant cycle. Those who are OK with higher wine temps may have other options - for the lower temps I like and the size, this one was far and away the best bargain at the desired capacity. We needed a narrow form factor, 12 to 14 inches wide max, and in the range of 30-40 inches tall, to tuck in next to a standard size bar cart - see pics for size reference. We've had it installed and cooling wine now for 3 days, and I am mightily impressed. Marvelously cool, just like I had hoped. They are not exaggerating the ability to cool down into the mid to low 40s. Perfect (for my tastes). Thermocouple models will pretty much all be 52 or so for their lowest temperature at a typical home indoor temp. Note that this wine fridge is a single zone model. For wine purists who want warmer reds and cooler whites, there are more expensive models with two separate zones for reds and whites. I don't need that, this one is perfect for how I like my red wine... well chilled. Don't even start with me - I like what I like. PROS ==== > Gets very cold. Lowest I found in the price range. > Digital setting, more precision than a "warmer <---> cooler" dial. Nice feature. > Nice cool blue light. OK, purely decorative. But it is indeed cool and decorative... > Really nice size, and a decent capacity for the size. Lots of capacity levels and sizes out there - this was just what we needed. > Outstanding value. Everything else with a compressor in this size range is $220 to $300. This both met our needs and saved us well over $80 USD. > Leveling feet for imperfect floors (like ours). > Bottom row is a stand-up orientation. Nice to display two or three of the best labels, but crucial for storage if you don't finish the bottle and just want to stick the cork back in. You can't lay it on its side, it might leak. That whole "corks are for quitters" business is amusing, but the reality is that corks are for those trying to avoid alcoholism and interventions. Stand-up bottle storage is a good thing. CONS ==== > While it is as quiet as advertised, there is a low hum and - oddly - a tiny gurgle sound that comes with a compressor and coolant cycle. You can only hear either sound if the room is otherwise silent. Even the central heat here in December covers up the refrigeration sounds. Not really a ding, and not at all a problem, just something a complete review should mention. I can't think of anything else on the con side. This is a great fridge, at a fantastic price. After doing my homework and looking at a bunch of options, this was way out front as the stand-out deal and unit. Highly recommended. If this meets your needs for size and capacity, for heaven's sake, quit dithering and buy this thing!! UPDATE: I was looking at my past orders, and ROVSUN has done something weird with this product. I bought ($159 USD), received, installed, and am very much liking the 18-bottle model shown in my photos. But the Amazon page for this product is now showing a wider, shorter 16-bottle model when I click on this item in my orders. It's as if the 18-bottle model has been replace by a 16-bottle unit with nearly the same specs, but now listed for $149 USD. If I wanted to order the 18-bottle unit I have and reviewed - I don't see any way to do that now. Stupid that they would just stick a new, different item and price in where the original item was, such that now all the links you can click on go to the new unit. Why not just show the original as "discontinued" and remove the option to order it, and just add a new page for the 16-bottle shorter, wider unit. I like the unit I bought, but ROVSUN does not seem to be as capable in the online retail "how to sell stuff" space as they are in providing decent products. This somewhat calls into question the positive review I originally posted. Ye be warned...

Just got our wine cooler . Very easy to assemble and operate and chilled super fast . So far I would definitely recommend. And the price was very reasonable.

Excellent product. Easy to set up. Fits conveniently under a standard table. Quiet. Good, even cooling of bottles top to bottom. Looks good.

Nice smaller cooler for beverages and wine in tight space. Only draw back is the humming sound can be a little louder than my fridge.

Arrived ahead of schedule.. packaged securely! It looks even better in real life than the pictures and it is very quiet. I am very happy with purchase and price was good too.

We bought this based on the seller's representation that this was an "18 bottle fridge...for wine champagne and beer." In reality, if you try to load even ONE BOTTLE of cava or champagne in a standard size for that product, you will lose space on that shelf and crowd the other 2 shelves above and below. The racks are so tightly crammed in, that the end result is an 8 BOTTLE FRIDGE, when you are paying for storage of 18 bottles. Since the bottles are touching the racks, the labels rip when you struggle to pull out the bottles. They have to be forced in and out. So much for presentation of a nice bottle of champagne, especially if you were planning to gift it. The listing image is a FAKE computer generated rendering, not a photo, and you only get less than half that space. See photos. When we contacted the Seller, they refused to admit their misrepresentations or offer even a small credit for their errors. Moreover, they did not provide any assistance in picking up this heavy item. How am I, a 110 lb woman, supposed to pick up a huge 50 lb box and take it to the post office ?!?! Poor customer service. DO NOT BUY from this seller.

This thing works great. I have more room in my kitchen fridge now. Wish it had an insert for cans

I can enjoy chilled wine and beverages.
