Had read numerous things about this, bottles not fitting, etched glass going upside down on door reverse and noisy fan.But decided to give it a go. So all bottles fit except on the bottom shelf. No branding so door reverse not an issue. The only assembly is screwing in the handle, 3-minute job so easy. I suspect there could be an issue if you're having this built in in that in order to open the door fully it seems to need to sit a little proud of the cupboards to open door fully. Needed for champagne bottles. Only other slight niggle is that the fan on the unit is quite noticeable if you're in a room with no other noise. But for the price point,

I had been thinking about getting a wine cooler for ages, but didn't think I would be able to fit one in my kitchen as the ones I had previously seen were much larger. This is a small compact item. Working great so far and chills the wine or beer perfectly. Previous reviews are correct, you can only fit a regular wine bottle in. Also you need to fit it in such a way so that the door can open all the way back, otherwise you can't get the bottles in or out. It helps that the door can be fitted either side on this one. Some of the compact coolers I looked at had a fixed door, opening only one way.update: forgot to say. You can have it just free standing,

I'm really pleased with this unit for the price, as all other wine coolers this size are over £200. Really well made and solid feeling. I'm surprised some people have received theirs damaged as they are really well packed from the factory.The unit comes with an additional pair of hinges that allows you to quickly and easily fit the door to open the opposite way.As others have mentioned, you can only fit a standard bottle of wine in it and nothing bigger. Not even a 2litre bottle of lemonade will fit, however its only a 150mm wide so you can't expect it to hold much.It is a little noisier than I expected, however it only kicks in every now and again and it does really bother us.

Had about 3 weeks now and very happy with it. Purchased to go in new Kitchen when refitted but delay in fitting until start of Dec (a month from now)so not housed yet. Easy to set up. Set up at 8c and chills wine and cider lovely, Was noisy to start but now settled and not noisy except when fan kicks in occasionally. Says you can house 7 bottles but I have been putting a smaller bottle in bottom rack as housing sits at back by bottom rack although you can put a full sized bottle in with neck up onto housing. Rest of bottles sit the other way. Very pleased with purchase would recommend

Only been running the fridge for a week but so far so good. Takes a good few hours to get down to the lowest setting of 5C from start but once there it maintains temperature very well. Just remember to be quick when taking bottles in and out as the temperature seems to creep up fairly quickly with the door open. You can easily fit 7 standard bottles of wine but you can't easily get bottles of champagne or prosecco in due to the wider girth of the bottle. The door is reversible which is a convenient feature.

So far this has been excellent, easy to install, fits in a gap in the island, smooth door opening that can be flush or sticking out - your choice. Keeps wine cool and looks smart I’m really happy with it. The noise is so minimal, it’s never bothered me and I can’t expect something with a fan to be silent! It’s quieter than a standard fridge. Fits 7 wine bottles and also take gin bottles, tonic water & sparkling water. Champagne and Prosecco bottles are too wide. But that’s fine as it’s a wine fridge...!

Just to clear up a few things about this model. The manual says it Can hold wine and Prosecco bottles but they are the standard wine bottle shape only. Anything like the champagne style bottle will NOT fit in this cooler. See video.It’s noisier than our regular fridge - I hope this fan doesn’t constantly run, (only just plugged it in) but it doesn’t put me off. It’s a nice slim unit that fills a gap in our kitchen.

Just given my kitchen a face lift with new doors and had a small space suitable for a wine fridge. This fits in beautifully and for the money is very stylish. So far works really well at chilling the wine and not noisy! It was a little tricky to level it but got there in the end. The only fault was I had to change the screws for fixing the handle on as they were the incorrect size.

Good quality, looks the part and keep the wine cool. Not too noisey either.The only concern is that to get the bottles in and out you really need to open the door up all the way. To do that you need to have it in a whole at least 16.5 cm wide otherwise it's a struggle squeezing the bottles past the rubber padding that goes around the inside of the door.

Great little space filler in the kitchen. Fits most wine bottles, not quite suitable for some chunky prosecco bottles though.Does run a little loud and ticks on and off quite often.Had a few issues with a faulty unit, then the replacement was dented. The service for the replacement and reimbursement for damage was very good.

This was delivered quite quickly but didn’t work so had to be collected and replaced which happened a few days later. Now that it works it’s fine but I have already had 4 similar wine fridges in 3 years as for some reason they seem to stop working after a while. I suggest buying the extended warranty which I forgot to do.

Despite what some reviews said, Prosecco bottles will not fit into the fridge so purely wines or mixers will fit. As a comparison biggest bottle (width) was able to put in was an Appletiser. Slightly smaller than a prosecco bottle. Fridge is a little louder than a normal one but not noticeable in our living room

For the money this is really good value we have open plan house in country so at night not a lot of noise and despite other reviews saying this I loud I honestly can’t hear it - the fridge filling up it’s water and turning to ice is much louder -

Impressive cooler. Fits prosecco and champagne bottles as long as there's enough clearance for the cooler door to open fully. The cooler can certainly be heard in a quiet room but nothing to complain about. Definitely value for money.

Bargain price, works well. As per other reviews you can hear the fan, so think about how quiet the room is. It’s fine in a kitchen but not a dining room or study. And you can’t fit prosecco/Champagne in it, just wine bottles and beer
