Reader Reviews
I did a lot of reseach on different wine cellars before I finally settled on this one. Each product I reviewed did have its trade offs. With this particular item, it is true--larger bottles may not fit as easily. However, this particular wine cellar was extremely quiet, is not overly large, will fit 12 normal size bottles (or just a little less with bigger bottles) and just looks good. Since I do not necessarily always have 12 bottles in stock at home, the size of the bottles do not affect me that much. As to the shelves sliding all the way out, again...it doesn't make that much of a difference to me since I usually know which wines are on which shelves and haven't needed to slide them out except maybe twice. For the price, the size, the look, and the extreme quietness...this is a great purchase. Comment | Permalink | (Report this)
