4.0 out of 5 stars Nice unit, but not exactly as pictured., December 13, 2010

While the description says it stores 8 bottles, either 750 or 1500 ml, it is a tight fit for whites, some reds did not fit, and champagne bottles will only fit if one rack is removed. In the picture it looks like the bottom rack is designed to accommodate fatter champagne bottles, but actually the unit that's shipping has 4 identical racks. The lowest temperature is 45F, not 39F. Those are the quibbles. The appearance is great, and it is extremely quiet. I like it so well, even with the demerits, that I bought another for better reds and dessert wines. The two units fit side by side on the kitchen counter, under the cabinets, with 1/4" to spare. After I bought the first unit, I happened to read a number of negative reviews, including the ominous ones about it breaking down within the first year. I sure hope that doesn't happen, because I like the unit. And those fat champagne bottles are still happy in the vegetable drawer of the refrigerator.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good wine cellar, if it doesn't die on you, November 10, 2010

This review is from: Cuisinart CWC-800 8-Bottle Private Reserve Wine Cellar, Stainless Finish (Kitchen)

Worked great for about 6 months. Held a constant temperature that was only 2 or 3 degrees off what the readout displayed. Then in the 7th month, I noticed the fan was laboring and the inside temp was getting higher. Been about a year now and it hasn't died on me yet but I don't think it has much time left. If you could get it for like $100, I would recommend it. But for what I paid, I don't plan on replacing it when it finally kicks and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone else. That being said, it's a much much better value then any other cellars I looked at that were twice the price or more and had terrible reviews.
