Wine Enthusiast 32-Bottle Dual Zone MAX Compressor Wine Cooler – Freestanding Mini Fridge with Digital Touchscreen, LED Display, Split Storage for Red & White Wines, Matte Black Refrigerator Home Bar

I love wine (who doesn't?), especially reds. However, living in a condo, it's hard to maintain reds at a good serving temperature. No basement to stick these bottles in. I had toyed with the idea of a wine fridge for awhile, and finally pulled the trigger earlier this year. I did some research and the two main features I wanted were: 1) quiet operation, and 2) dual zone. It seemed pointless to shell out for a single zone fridge where I could only house either reds or whites, but not both. This unit was billed as a quiet/silent wine fridge, and happy to report that it definitely meets those standards. I can best describe the noise as a white noise / slight hum. Enough to know that it's running, but not enough to be distracting. The temperature zones are great - I've got reds on top, whites/rose on the bottom. In terms of design, the top section (reds) has the capability to store wines both lying flat, as well as standing up (2 bottles max). This is great because you can keep the wines flat for longer term storage, but if you have a vacuum wine stopper you can theoretically open a bottle, plug it back with the vacuum stopper, and then put it back in the wine fridge while standing up - keeping it fresh and drinkable for at least another week. Finally - the design is very sleek / modern. Looks great in a living room. Very happy with my purchase, and would recommend it to anyone who is like me - not a wine connoisseur but who is simply looking to make the most of their wines.

Great product! Very quiet we were worried about that. Very spacious and very elegant looking!!

Nice cooler that works as advertised but racks not optimally configured to maximize bottle storage for non-Bordeaux shaped bottles.

Let me start by saying I purchased two previous wine coolers from Amazon, and had to send both back the day after delivery (Nutrichef 12 bottle, Magic Chef 12 bottle). The first was damaged, the second had a faulty temp display which I called the manufacturer to fix and they told me to return it, and then I bought this. I figured why not go bigger. The WE dual zone cooler was packed much better than the previous two, and there was no damage. I read over the manual (highly recommend) and let the cooler stand unplugged overnight. The next morning I plugged it in, set my desired temps and hung around the house for a bit. The top part didn’t take long at all to get to my set temp (58 degrees) while the bottom was taking quite a while (47). I went to work and came back later that evening to find a very cooled, QUIET wine fridge! I was skeptical to get this one, mostly because WE wine coolers in the past have gotten bad reviews and people have reviewed this one as being too loud. Well, I’m happy to say mine is completely silent. I had to put my ear up to it to make sure it’s running. Zero noise. The first one I got made a horrible buzz sound. The manual does say if your wine cooler is making a loud noise it’s most likely not leveled or the room is too hot for it to operate correctly. I keep my home about 69-71 degrees. It took a hot minute to level the cooler because my floor is all messed up but I did and I haven’t had any issues. My roommates and I love it and not to mention, it looks beautiful! If you follow the manual and do what you’re supposed to, you should love this cooler and not have any problems. I know some can be faulty... but I’m extremely happy with mine!

Everyone's idea of quiet is clearly different. I bought this product in April of 2024 and almost immediately after purchasing, I noticed this constant "zapping" noise that occurs every 2-5 minutes. Additionally, I guess the compressor constantly restarts so it just runs loudly like 75% of the time. I reached out to the merchant about this issue who swiftly gave me their technical department's number. I reach out to them and explain my issue and all they recommended was that I clean the coils and have a technician come in to fix it. Please keep in mind, I haven't even had this wine fridge for a year. And unfortunately, the responsibility is on me as the merchant isn't taking accountability for a faulty product. I would NOT recommend this product to anyone and believe there are better wine fridges in the market. Please save yourself the disruption of peace and underwhelming customer service.

I believe for the money this cooler is spot on. Love it for its size and the fact that it has duel zone cooling. It looks good standing alone although one could build it into a cabinet. The temp range does vary 3-4 degrees however I suspect it has to do with cycling on and off. The chrome racks hold the wine and can be rolled out easily to view what you have available. For the money it seems well built. Very quiet! Highly recommend this beverage cooler especially for wine.

I've had the fridge for about 6 months. I really love the look of the outdoor which has a slightly mirrored effect. And I love the dual-zone temperature and the display rack on the bottom for 3 bottles. However, the machine has started to get noisier and noisier with each passing month. The fridge itself turns itself on and off about ever couple of minutes. So it is cycling on and off frequently. Every time it cycles, there is a click and throughout the cycle, there is a constant rattle sound with an occasional buzz-zap sound. When I first heard the buzz sound, I called the manufacturer and they told me it was normal. They even sent me a sound clip of the sound they had previously recorded as normal. But it is pretty obnoxious honestly. I like the fridge but I have low confidence that it will last based on the sounds it is making. And the sounds are so annoying that I might get rid of it anyway.

I have read through several reviews online on this unit and other competitive units. If you care about honest reviews, please read on. Short review - A noisy replacement to my 10 year old Wine Enthusiast 24 bottle unit. Please stop complaining that the unit is noisy because you don't understand how refrigeration (compressor) based units work. There are some not-so-smart reviews out there who take videos of this unit complaining about the noise. If your room temperature is going to increase, the fridge needs to fire up the compressor to maintain the temperature you have set. I put mine in the garage because of the noise (problem solved). If you are considering this inside the house and care about noise pollution - this wine fridge is not for you. Long version - I am a proud owner of Wine Enthusiast wine fridge that I bought 10 years ago from another vendor. I love the simplicity and build quality. There was so much negativity these days about customer service (I will get to that as well). 2 weeks ago, my old unit stopped working. I was scrambling to find a replacement. I went back and forth between Wine Enthusiast and New Air especially for the dual temperature zone, capacity and compactness of the unit. This is a compressor based unit and is going to get noisier on hot days. Build quality - Just like my last unit, the interior looks exactly the same. The back has the compressor exposed. That is where the noise comes from. Storage capacity - you can store 32 bottles easily in this fridge. I have a couple of magnums in the bottom. Recommended location - Garage or somewhere you don't mind noise pollution. I had originally kept it indoors and moved it to my garage this past weekend. Customer service - I reached out to Wine Enthusiast for repair options for my old fridge. They were not only responsive (within 24 hours), they shared wine fridge repair technicians near my neighborhood.
