Bottom line: Looks good, reasonably quiet and doesn't take up too much space.
We got this wine refrigerator a few months ago for two reasons. We like our red wine cold and we wanted to free up space in our fridge. When we buy a case of wine, we just put the entire case into this wine refrigerator. Then if we've forgotten to put a bottle in the fridge, we always have a cold bottle ready to go.
The only space we really had for this wine refrigerator was in our breakfast area. We sit there every morning, talk and have coffee. It does make some noise when running but it isn't an annoying sound and it doesn't disrupt our conversations. It's no more than 3-4' (approx. 1 meter) from where we are sitting. It's footprint is about 18" deep x 13.5 wide" (14.7cm x 34.3cm).
It quickly cools the wine down (we have it set to the minimum temperature 41 degrees). I have noticed that it creeps up to 45 degrees on the display before the compressor turns on. It's probably a good thing though - better that it's on long enough to cool the wine down but not turning off and on constantly all day trying to keep the temperature precisely at 41 degrees.
So far, very pleased. Will update the review if we have any reliability issues.
