5.0 out of 5 stars No more freezer explosions
Have you ever tried to chill some champagne or sparkling water fast by sticking it in the freezer for a few moments, forgotten it, had it ruined or had it explode? If picking out shards of frozen glass from your freezer instead of enjoying a perfectly chilled beverage is your idea of a good time, then pass on this product.

Sure, an icebucket does the job too. BUT if...

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't waste your time
This is an expensive ice bucket. It actually takes up to 20 minutes to chill a bottle of wine with this device ! Do not waste your time or money on this product. It is the most foolish purchase I have ever made :-(

This review is from: VinChilla 107900 Single Bottle Electric Wine Chiller, Black (Kitchen)
Have you ever tried to chill some champagne or sparkling water fast by sticking it in the freezer for a few moments, forgotten it, had it ruined or had it explode? If picking out shards of frozen glass from your freezer instead of enjoying a perfectly chilled beverage is your idea of a good time, then pass on this product.

Sure, an icebucket does the job too. BUT if there are times you find yourself ready to drink a bottle of white wine or a bottle of champagne(perhaps one brought by a guest) and the wine or the champagne you have is not chilled, AND you don't have tons of ice in your freezer, AND you're not in the mood to run out to the 7/11 for a sack of ice, pull out the Vinchilla. Just throw in a tray or two of ice cubes, add water, turn the dial and watch the gentle swirling of the water as it chills your bottle of bubbly to perfection.

Remember, wine experts agree: it is NOT good for wine to sit in the refrigerator for a long time. A quick chill is the best way to preserve its integrity.

Half the people on my Christmas list are getting this as a present. The price on this can't be beat.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wine Lover, July 9, 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: VinChilla 107900 Single Bottle Electric Wine Chiller, Black (Kitchen)
Despite what others have said about this not "feeling like a quality product" or it "takes a whole 20 minutes to chill a bottle of wine", this product is awesome! You cannot chill a room temperature bottle of wine in the freezer for less than 30-40 minutes and in the refrigerator it can take over 3 hours. If this chiller does take the entire 20 minutes to chill a bottle, it's well worth it because it's the perfect temperature. The chiller works great for merlots or cabs too -- takes five minutes to chill it to the proper 57-58 degrees. I would definitely recommend this product...you cannot go wrong!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful gift idea, December 16, 2002
This review is from: VinChilla 107900 Single Bottle Electric Wine Chiller, Black (Kitchen)
I bought the vin chilla as a gift for my wife and there hasnt been a day gone by that it hasnt seen some use. Not only does it chill the wine to perfection but it also can be sued to chill canned drinks such as beer and soda, and it even fits champagne bottles not that I have had cause to use it for that. This thing also can be used to raise the temperature of bottles of red wine that have gotten cold, or take the bite out of soda if your kids have sensitive teeth like mine.

A brilliant gift and well worthwhile investment. If you know a wine buff which would you prefer to buy them a bottle that goes immediatly or to buy them something they cxan use over and over again. ...

My advice buy it.
