Product review (5 stars): Great product! Only one small downside.
We purchased our Danby beverage center in Nov. 2011. We shopped a long time for the right one for our small family room area (12 x 20) and found this Danby to be the best product for the price. We had a little bit of an awkward space to fill under a granite countertop and our selections were between this unit and a Frigidaire, which was shorter by a few inches. We would've settled for the Frigidaire if the Danby didn't fit our space, but we were very happy we didn't have to.

One of the biggest selling points for us was the noise, or lack thereof. If our room is completely silent, you can barely hear the fan running. At first, when it was setting temperature, the fan would run, then turn off, every 7-10 seconds. We had read other reviews that listed this as a problem. However, once the desired temperature was set, it ran less often.

This unit is in a room where there is a fireplace directly across from it. The fan does run more often when the room is warmed by a fire, but we saw this as a pro, not a con. We want our beverages to be cool when the room is warm, and because the fan noise is so minimal, it's not an issue for us. When there is a little bit of other noise (ie, a TV on), you can't hear the unit at all. We actually wondered if it was still working! (It was.)

It's very spacious inside. It fit everything we expected and then some. It's a bit tricky with taller bottles, but adjusting the shelves is a nice feature. You just have to make the very top shelf kind of short and the second shelf a bit shorter, too. Then it all fits. We put plastic water bottles on their sides on top and then were able to stand up the beer bottles and 20-oz soda bottles on the 3rd shelf.

The blue LED light was a great selling feature to us. When it's on, it gives the unit an upscale look.

We've noticed that it holds a steady temperature of 44 degrees just fine, which is perfect for beer, soda and water. We keep only a few bottles of wine on the very bottom and while those should be properly chilled at a higher temperature, we prefer our wine pretty cold. It's just our preference.

If this unit has a downside, I'd say it's the plastic wine sleeves at the bottom and the construction of the shelves. If you don't move them around a lot, they should last, but in the store, we noticed that they were falling apart-- probably from too much use. We hope ours last!

We highly recommend this beverage center! Danby did it right with this one.
