LOVE IT!, March 3, 2009
This review is from: Koolatron WC04 Compact Thermoelectric 4-Bottle Wine Cooler (Kitchen)
I bought this for my husband, who loves red wine. This is the perfect size - not too big at all. Keeping 4 bottles cool is perfect for us. It keeps the wine at the perfect temperature and we can always change it to "white wine" temperature if we want. I also love the blue lights inside, which you can't see in the photo...it's like a nightlight in our kitchen! I highly recommend this...

Not great, July 16, 2009
This review is from: Koolatron WC04 Compact Thermoelectric 4-Bottle Wine Cooler (Kitchen)
Update Nov. 2010:
Bottle next to the cooling vent is slightly cool (at lowest temperature); the others aren't. There's a lot of condensation inside, so you have to dry the puddles every few months.
It kinda serves its purpose, but I thought it would be better.
First off, the plastic looks and feels cheap; it scratches easily. Also, the sticker in the control panel wasn't properly adhered, so I pulled it out a bit to strech it, and now it doesn't stick properly. The good thing about the unit being plastic, is that it's very light.
As for the cooling properties, the wine bottle next to the cooling vent, cools wonderfully; the one next to that one, is OK; the third one, not so much; and the bottle farthest to the vent doesen't cool at all. I always use the bottle next to the vent, and then move the remaining a space closer to the vent, so they'll cool while we drink the one I took out.
It's not as quiet as advertised (it says "ultra quiet"). It's actually a little louder than my fridge; but it's not that bad. We have it the kitchen, next to the fridge, so it doesn't bother us too much.
I bought it because it's a real spacesaver. It can be mounted horizontally under cabinets, which is how we use it; and it can also be used freestandind vertically or horizontally.
I bought this cooler less than a month ago for $129.99, and now it's $89.98, so I guess it's not selling all that well.

Horrible, February 21, 2010
This review is from: Koolatron WC04 Compact Thermoelectric 4-Bottle Wine Cooler (Kitchen)
I bought this to save space in my kitchen. The wine cooler worked great for about a month and now the cooler has stopped cooling. The fan still goes but it doesnt work. I would suggest spending some more money and get a good one.
