Have been using the wine fridge for a little over a month now. It had some minor dents on the metal cabinet when delivered, but worked fine. Best Buy customer service gave me a discount to keep the damaged fridge. The cabinet wasn’t going to be exposed anyways. The fridge has a mechanic thermostat control knob inside the fridge. I bought a separate thermometer to fine tune the temperature. Using a setting between “normal” and “coldest” I have been able to maintain 48 degrees consistently. The fridge’s compressor makes a popping noise when the thermostat tells the fridge to turn on or off. This was a common concern made by other customers. It isn’t overly noticeable, and I have the fridge tucked away in a pantry closet, so it is even less noticeable. For the money, this is a good fridge, no frills, but one of the few which uses a compressor to cool verses a thermoelectric motor. The advantage is you can cool lower with a compressor than with a thermoelectric motor.

Bought 2 of these coolers, they are a great size and style. It is a little noisy when the compressor runs... but that isn't too often with some airflow. Installed a very quiet small fan on the shelf the wine cooler is sitting on that gently blows air behind them. The compressor doesn't run as often because of the airflow.

So beautiful and practical! I an not a heavy drinker and not an wine enthusiast. The normal wine refrigerator was too big for me. When I measured the width, it seemed to be a perfect match for my small cheap drink refrigerator. I just put the wine on the small. It was a perfect match. I made a small hole on a hinge on the small, then it was aligned perfectly. I am quite happy for the result.
