I have this next to my side-by-side refrigerator and it is noisier than my refrigerator.
I may not have purchased if I knew the fan was so loud.This is my first wine cooler. Received the Avanti 8 bottle wine cooler in two days, since it was an Amazon Prime item. After receiving it, noticed that the picture of the wine cooler I received is not the one pictured. The one I received requires four bottles to stand vertically. Eight bottles can not lay down horizontally, as shown in the picture.
After setting up the cooler and setting it to 57 degrees, I noticed the fan kicking. Sounds a lot like the fan on my laptop computer, except louder. I can hear it two rooms away. I little annoying, but about the as loud as my refrigerator. Kicks on about every 30 minutes and runs for about 5-7 minutes each time.
Since it only cost a little over $110 dollars, I'll go ahead and keep the cooler and see how long it lasts. However, probably won't buy it again, simply due to the amount of noise the fan makes. There's got to be a quieter wine cooler out there!First unit arrived and power supply failed within 48 hours. Just to be sure, when replacement unit arrived we put it on a 3600 joule surge suppressor. Interestingly, unit does not "run" all the time; when target temperature is reached, the fan shuts off. Fan noise is noticable and somewhat louder than a computer. The display makes for quite a nice "night light." Internal light is just right. One truly stupid feature is that in order to turn on internal light, you have to "open" the control panel by holding two buttons down for 3 seconds, and then go to the "light" button. Wife still cannot believe that anyone would do such an idiotic thing. The left side of the rack is open; while not explained, this is where you can store opened bottles with the cork up. While the description says "stainless steel front FINISH," look at that word "finish" carefully. Even though the case is metal, the front door is 100% genuine solid plastic. No metal whatever. That "finish" is cheap aluminum paint over plastic. At 6 feet, you might not be able to tell. Wish it went below 53oF, but that is the nature of thermoelectric coolers.Avanti EWC801 10 in Portable Countertop Wine Cooler 8-Bottle Capacity Touch Controls w/ LED Display
Stopped cooling at 6 months. Called Avanti and they are swapping out for a new one. Try it again.

This was not as advertised. Despite the many good reviews, it was very noisy. Louder than my refrigerator or my air conditioner! Unless you have half white and half red, it will only hold 4 bottles, not 8 as 4 are upright for white and 4 flat for red. It looks nice, replaced with a Haier which was whisper quiet and stored wine properly. It also cooled within an hour versus several hours for the Avanti. I would stay away from this brand.
