21-Bottle Dual Zone Thermoelectric Wine Cooler By Sunpentown

I recall having a Sunpentown frying pan a few years ago and remember throwing it out after a couple of months. Getting another Sunpentown product was probably not a very smart idea. If they made bad frying pans, I doubt you can expect much for a complicated wine storage system. Definitely not pursuing any design awards when they came up with this. Tacky and plastic looking with a supposedly high tech touch panel. I did not have high expectations for a 200 dollar plus wine chiller and could not have been more right. Set your expectations low. Very low. The touch panel was so misaligned that you would have to press a full inch to the side to activate it.

The unit claims to fit 21 bottles which it does, but try putting a slightly wider bottle in there and it wont fit unless you remove an entire shelf. I'm not sure if the dual zone is purely in appearance but there was at any given time only a 1 degree difference between the upper and lower. Even if you set the top zone to the maximum and the bottom to the minimum, both zones would just settle somewhere in between. I'm assuming it's a insulation failure between the top and bottom.

I was actually going to keep it out of sheer laziness, but when the bottom zone stopped running, it was obvious that no matter how forgiving I was, it would not work out. Not a life changing crisis by any means, but sometimes it's just good to learn from the past mistakes.

This product has been a big disappointment. It has never been able to cool to the temperatures set. The lowest it will reach is 60 degrees. The motor for the upper section died within a few months. I would not recommend this unit at all.

We have had ours for about a year and I noticed that often the temps would get much higher than I had it set (like up to the mid-60s). If I cleaned the screens on the back it would go back to normal though. But last week we were out of town for a week. When we got home it was reading 99 degrees!! I opened it up and all our wine was burning up. I think it was much much hotter than 99 degrees but that is the hottest the display could show. The corks were popping out of the wine and hundreds of dollars worth of wine were ruined. What concerns me even more is that if we didn't come home when we did it could have started a fire. Be careful if you get this.

Bought the winecooler regardless of reservation from reading negative comments on Amazon. Should have taken these reviews more seriously. The demise came gradually, first the top cooler temp kept creeping up, then came the bottem section temperature problem. One day, the engine noise became so labored that we had to unplug it. It never recovered.

It is a good looking piece of equipment, but for something that costs close to $300 without functioning for one year, it is a piece of crap.

I looked everywhere for something that could fit in my space with good reviews. I selected this product and shipping and everything was great. My biggest complaint is the amount of noise it makes and it has issues maintaining temperature.
