As many other reviews mention, this wine fridge does not hold 50 bottles. I guess it might hold 50 very slim bottles, but I own a variety of wines, most of which have wider bottles. I ended up taking 2 of the shelves out of the fridge to better fit more bottles of wine. The fridge works great and is a nice size. I do wish the shelves were a little nicer (on rollers maybe) but I do like having the ability to easily remove some of the shelves.
