We bought this model for use in our game room bar in July 2008. Upon delivery the temperature controller failed to work properly and the unit never cooled. The controller went completely blank in just a couple of days. The retailer refused to provide us with a new unit and sent a service technician to our house. The technician found that the wiring harness to the cooling fan had either come loose or been installed incorrectly. After connecting the wiring harness the unit began to cool but we found the digital controller still wasn't working properly. The technician asked us to use it for a couple of days to see if it worked itself out. Several days later, unable to change the temperature at all, we again called the appliance retailer and demanded a new unit. They again refused, sending the technician out again. He said he thought the entire computer was fried and needed to take the unit to his shop for service. We were without the refrigerator for three weeks while all of the electronics were replaced. When it was returned it seemed to work fine. Now, almost one year to the day after it was repaired, the temperature controller has again failed and the digital readout is blank. I expected more from a $1,000 bar refrigerator from U-Line. I would not recommend this unit based on my experience with it. Check out the Marvel or Scotsman refrigerators for roughly the same price.
