Product review (3 stars): Beautiful unit, but with serious dependability issues
I did a LOT of beverage cooler research before purchasing this one.  It's hard to find one that DOESN'T have some number of owners complaining about breakdowns or the like.  Well, unfortunately I have to be one of those people with this unit. Just a couple months into ownership, we've had one time where it simply lost all cooling (not due to power loss or the like), which was remedied by simply recycling the power.

However, the next week it go even worse and has stayed that way.  Now it is OVER-cooling, to the point that everything on the left side exploded.  The issue appears to only be on that side but it is completely unusable because you don't know what you are going to get versus where you set it.

We have of course set up a service call under warranty (and I'm now glad I purchased the Square Trade extended warranty as well) and we'll see where that leaves us, but it will be hard to trust this thing going forward.

That said, that is our only complaint.  It's not very beer bottle friendly on the left but it was the closest we could find, due to the adjustable shelving (you have to remove one or have a really low clearance shelf).  It's a beautiful unit, fairly quiet, and maintains everything just the way we want it IF AND WHEN it works.

I'll try to remember to do a long-term update several months from now post-repair.

UPDATE (9.22.15): The repairman who came out said it could/should not be repaired (something about a sealed system component?) and they called Danby to have them set up a replacement. He also said that it was not assembled by Danby properly in that a door seal was not fully seated, allowing the unit to suck in hot air.  Great.

Another comment he made is that it is not designed to have beer bottles in the left side.  I knew it wasn't designed for this shelf-wise but I'm confused as to why it would otherwise make a difference if you adjust the shelves accordingly.  It's not like we are keeping it at a lower temperature than we would with cans (36 or 37 I think it was).

Anyway, we'll see how quick Danby is to coordinate this replacement, and how painful a process that is.  We're on week 3 with no beverage cooler (wah wah...first world problems, I know!).

UPDATE (9.14.16): Despite my update date, it has actually been several months (pretty much right after I wrote my prior update) since I ended up having to ditch this unit. Danby indicated that all their replacement units were "spoken for" through the end of the year and thus offered me a full refund if I did not want to wait.  The unit had made me sufficiently nervous about trying my luck with another that I decided to look around and ended up accepting the refund.  I ended up donating the unit to Habitat for Humanity (in case it could be useful to them in anyway since it still turned on at least) and purchasing this unit, which I have also reviewed:&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Electrolux-EI24BC10QS-24-34-Stainless-Steel-Beverage-Center-Energy-Star/dp/B00MQAJIKA/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">Electrolux EI24BC10QS 24" Stainless Steel Beverage Center - Energy Star</a>
