What's great about it:?appearance What's not so great:?died after 6 months, mfgr difficult to work with "If the wine cooler would have not died after 6 months, it would have been a great deal. It looks cool and it did the job. from Bestbuy.com Pros: appearance Cons: durability "this cooler stopped cooling after a year and a half, although it was still running. danby said it was not rated for under counter installation and did not have the proper air circulation, although i have found nothing to that effect in their specs for this model or the literature that accompanied it.the warranty repair center listed in the manual said they were no longer on board with danby. from Bestbuy.com Pros: Watching my wife bend over and clean up wine off the carpet wearing a thong. from Shopping.com Pros: Attractive Cons: Noisy, light intrusion, poor quality "This seemed to be an attractive unit and served my purpose of 'staging' wine to be drunk in the short term. Initially it worked fine, was reasonably quiet and served its purpose well. from Bestbuy.com Pros: Stylish look and reasonable price Cons: Stopped working after about 2-3 months "This is a very nice looking wine cooler at a reasonable price. At first it was working fine and then after about 2 to 3 months it was all down hill. from Bestbuy.com Cons: It stopped working "After 20 months, the wine cooler does not go below 55 degrees in either section. Additionally, the compressor seems to be running now 24/7. from Bestbuy.com I bought this cooler 18 months ago and it has stopped cooling. I tried to call Danby, but even though they had my serial number, they could not guarantee that they would cover the cost to fix it. from Amazon.com The lower two shelves are shorter than the others, this is due to the design and placement of the motor and refrigeration unit. This means that the unit will never be able to hold 30 bottles. The standard size bottle of wine holds 750ml, which means they are all displace the same space, although in different dimensions. Any bottle short enough to fit in the lower shelves will be too wide to fit 5 across, any thin enough to fit 5 across will be too long. from Amazon.com no condensation, no heating issue, the dual temperature sections work great. it's not noisy at all; i barely notice it. i'm quite frankly confused and wonder if Danby put out a crummy lot at one time but fixed the issue? anyway, i'm not one to post reviews, but figured i would at least give the other side from a completely satisfied customer. from Amazon.com I bought this product around Christmas 2007 - the unit just broke - not even 6 months old!! I have very decent wines and champagnes ruined as this unit stopped working. If you read the Danby warranty, ruined wines are not covered. from Amazon.com
