Broke down after two years, but is relatively inexpensive and easy to fix

ByFilboid Studgeon January 12, 2016

Size: NoneColor: black

I purchased this wine cooler in 2012. After about two years, the fan attached to the heatsink in the back started whining on-and-off and ultimately failed. As this happened, the wine cooler could only achieve/maintain about 10 degrees Fahrenheit below room temperature, in contrast to the 17-18 degrees Fahrenheit below room temperature it could achieve when new.

I didn't realize the fan had failed; the lack of heat dissipation caused to the Peltier element to also fail. So the cooler stopped working. I don't think that working for two years is sufficient for an item at this price point. Fortunately, thermoelectric wine coolers are easy to fix and relatively inexpensive to do so. When I took the back off and pulled the entire cooling assembly off, I discovered several things of concern.

1) The thermal paste used to attach the Peltier to the inside and outside heatsinks was of very poor quality.
2) The sealant used to seal the outside heatsink from the cabinet was of poor quality and had gaps in several locations, meaning that ambient air from the room could easily enter the cabinet - increasing the cooling demand to maintain sub-ambient temperatures.

When fixing it, I used the following components:

a) Fan - I replaced the original 90 mm fan with a 140 mm fan that pushes 60 CFM and draws 0.14A, which is about the same amp draw as the original fan. I used this CoolerMaster fan. It has a blue LED when it runs, which matches the blue LED on the display. I would have prefered a fan without an LED - but it isn't too noticeable unless the room is dark. One point of note - this is a 3-pin fan, while the wine-cooler only uses two pins. The third pin on the fan is for speed control, which isn't needed in this application. The fan runs at top speed (1000 rpm) during cooling and cannot be heard - much quieter than the original fan.

b) Peltier element - TEC1-12706. This is a 40x40 mm Peltier element that matches the original element in this cooler.

c) Thermal paste. I used Artic Silver. Unlike applying a very thin layer when attaching a heatsink to a CPU or GPU, I applied a layer that about 1-2 mm thick on both sides and then squeezed out the excess when assembling the cooling assembly.

d) Silicone sealant. I ran a bead of Permatex high-temperature silicone sealant around the edge before attaching the cooling assembly back to the case.

I've listed these details in the event they are useful to anyone else whose cooler stops working. All put together, it cost about $30 to get the wine cooler operational again. It has been two years since I fixed it; the wine cooler now achieves and hold about 20 degrees Fahrenheit below ambient temperature. I keep the house at 70F, and it reaches temperatures as low as 47F, but not lower. At this temperature differential (23F), the Peltier and fan run continuously. If I set the cooler to 50F, then the Peltier and fan cycle on & off.

I've attached three photos to this review showing what the modified back of the fixed cooler looks like, the difference between ambient and interior temperature, and the difference between the heat-sink temperature and the interior temperature.

If your buttons don't work, try this little trick first!

ByDRHon May 28, 2015

Size: NoneColor: blackVerified Purchase

Purchased this unit to replace my aging Haier on which I'd replaced the thermoelectric module in several times. Avanti makes very good products, nonetheless - when I plugged it in, I was unable to change any of the parameters (temp, wine type) on the display. No problem, a quick fix for anyone that this happens to: the top hinge has a black plastic cover. Take it off and you'll see 4 wires feeding into a black connector. Unplug the connector - doing so with the power on is OK because of the small voltage present which you cannot contact anyway because the connections are protected inside of the connector - and plug it back in. After that, snap the hinge cover back on; anyone can do this! A small "inconvenience" to make your unit function again and, it's no big deal! Sure beats having to ship it back for a replacement.
I also found out that the buttons are always locked out until you press both of the 'temp up' and 'temp down' buttons together - overlooked that in the manual.
It's June 2015 and the cabinet has performed flawlessly. VERY pleased with it especially the 4-bottle stand-up area. Finally figured that out; as you open bottles and reseal with your vacu-vin or what have you, it doesn't make sense to lay them back down, they're not going to "breathe" through those seals so, stand 'em up and they'll be ready when you are for your next glass! Neat idea?
July 12, 2016 Update - As I passed the cooler today, I noticed that the temperature displayed was 58 degrees (set on 55,) no fans running and no action from the buttons. Unplugged, left unpowered for a minute then restored power; now all is right again. Hope this was a power grid fluke, either a dip or spike. Still loving this little cooler!

Temperature dependant upon ambient room temperature

ByUntaken Usernameon September 23, 2013

Size: NoneColor: black

My wife and I received this item as a wedding gift and, although we are generally satisfied with some aspects of the cooler (appearance, capacity and size, and convenience) the unit itself does not maintain a stable temperature on its own (a "must have" for delicate wines and the reason we wanted a wine fridge in the first place). The unit, as I was told by a representative at the fridge's manufacturer, is an ambient room temperature-dependant machine and is only capable of cooling between 20-25 degrees of the room's temperature. What this means is that wide swings in temp (such as in an non air conditioned apartment) will result in equally dramatic swings in the fridge's internal temperature. Additionally, on a hot summer's day, I have seen the temperature swing as high as 25 degrees above the unit's set temperature. If high levels of temperature control and stability are more important to you than slick looks, small external unit size, and the convenience of being able to have wine out of your regular refrigerators, perhaps another unit would best suit your needs

Very Nice Cooler

ByCeciliaon April 26, 2014

Size: NoneColor: blackVerified Purchase

I really appreciate the fact that this cooler can accommodate larger bottles if you remove some of the chrome shelves. I don't need to store tons of bottles, just like to have a few chilled bottles on hand. No other smaller cooler allows for vertical placement of bottles. If I use the smaller bottles, I can fit 12, so that's awesome. I love the look of this cooler as well, it will fit in smaller places if you don't have a lot of room, but just leave breathing room around the unit. I hope that it lasts at least a year or two, will update my rating if it fails before that time. One important thing people-use a surge protector on the plug so that if there is any change in your house's electric the unit won't be damaged, we have them on all of our TV's, computer's, etc. Vey happy with this purchase, and Amazon got it to me fast and free shipping!

Not really a cooler

They should clearly explain up front that this product will not bring the temp down below 20 less that the area It is in. If your house is 78 degrees it will not chill below 58.Read more
