Product review (1 stars): Not recommended
I have had this wine cooler for 15 months now. The first thing I noticed was that the fan cycles on and off CONTINUALLY. I'm not saying every 15 or 20 minutes... I'm saying that the fan will come on for maybe 8-10 seconds, go off for maybe 10-15 seconds, and then come on again, then do it all over... CONTINUALLY. I have tried different temp settings to get it to stop, to no avail. After driving me crazy for 15 months, the fan has now started to make more noise, so I decided that I would move the cooler to my detached workshop where it wouldn't bother me as much. I unplugged the fan. Big mistake. By stopping the cycle, it now won't start back up. The fan blade rotates at about 3 (three) RPM and the fan motor makes a growling sound that indicates imminent, total failure to rotate. Basically, the wine cooler is now an ambient temperature storage locker with a useless power cord hanging out the back. I will investigate finding a replacement fan motor, but I fear it would have to come from some tiny town in China that I could never find.

In addition, the temperature gauge should be ignored. You will need to hang a separate thermometer inside the cabinet to tell you what the real temp is. My house is generally about 68-70 degrees F. all year round and this unit had a very difficult time keeping the wine below 60 degrees F.

In my opinion, buy it if you want to gamble. It is a nice looking cabinet with handy pull-out bottle racks. It LOOKS nice and contributes to your visual ambiance.... your mileage may vary.
