This Freestanding Wine Cellars give to us some advantages, like this :
1. Disappointing, these units don't seem to last much beyond warranty
I've had this unit about 2 years. The bottom portion has quit working and sits at room temperature. It was a free replacement of an earlier NewAir product that also quit working after about 14 months. To their credit, NewAir made the swap even though the unit was out of warranty. I've been trying to figure out whether I've been unlucky or this is pretty much the normal expectation for units like this. Another reviewer here had worse luck than me, and some discussions on low-cost wine coolers like this suggest that they really don't last long. One site says, "most wine refrigerators are notoriously unreliable, you'll be lucky if it lasts 5 years much less 10."
I'm a bit puzzled by this, I have a small compressor-driver refrigerator (not for wine) running constantly and very quietly for 7 years with no issues. The thermoelectric units with no moving parts (except the fan) is billed as more energy efficient, lower in vibration and with less to go wrong, except they seem to go...
2. 3 broken units in one year.
First unit arrived with broken buttons. Since they are inside the door, it suggests this was a quality control issue and not a shipping issue. Returned with free shipping.
Second unit lasted 4 months before bottom portion stopped keeping temperature, instead drifting to coolest temp possible. Returned and paid for shipping.
Third unit lasted 6 months before bottom portion stopped keeping temperature, instead drifting to coolest temp possible. Air & Water says they only do warranty repairs within 12 months of original purchase date. While I have only had this unit 6 months their offer to me a measly 12% off the purchase of a NEW unit.
These guys are selling cheap junk and they know it. This wine cooler is not built to last. Don't waste your time with this cooler or Air & Water.
Need more appointment... ?
Avoid, does not last
This was exactly 13 months ago and the upper zone has since stopped cooling. Very disappointed and the poor quality of this product. while it worked, it was oddly noisy for a semiconductor type cooler. it would vibrate every few hours for now some reason. do not expect this to cool fast or well. it's an item you just stick in a corner and put random wines in. Also be careful, the edges are sharp and can injure, do not keep near small children. wished I had returned it while I could. regretting. I got a quote to repair the item and it was almost as expensive. bad bad bad experience with this.
