Title: A great little unit
Review: This unit is very effective and nicely designed. Some comments relating to other reviews. Some reviewers have mentioned that the unit is wobbly. Please note that all four legs are adjustable, and each one can be raised or lowered by twisting the leg clockwise or counterclockwise. So out of the box, my unit was wobbly too. After adjustment, it is rock solid. Unlike some reviewers, I've never had a problem with the unit icing up. I've never had that issue. I keep my unit at 58 degrees; perhaps icing is a problem only with far lower temperature settings. As at least one reviewer has noticed, the temperature display light is bright. It's not an issue in daytime. At night, just cover it up. I took one of the three-sided wedges used in shipping to protect the unit from damage and cut away one side. It makes a very effective L-shaped cover for the light to block the light at night. There have also been complaints about the noise, which surprises me. It's a very quiet unit. Sure, if I am standing next to the unit, I can hear it. But in another room, no. It's not bothersome at all; certainly my air conditioner is far, far louder than this unit. I'm surprised also that some reviewers have complained about the unit not being big enough to hold bottles. This unit has plenty of space to hold standard-size wine bottles, and even wine-bottles that are taller than the norm.

Title: This wine cooler has a 5-STAR appearance and 3-STAR functionality
Review: This really is a nice-looking wine cooler, but it does have some characteristics which may make it less desirable depending upon where you plan to locate it in your home. The rating I would give this product really depends on where you plan to locate the wine cooler.**** (4 STARS) = Location is in a rarely used room or garage*** (3 STARS) = Location is in a dining room, kitchen, or frequently used room.What I like:1. The wine cooler is extremely attractive and looks nice at almost all locations in my home. The external finish has a “quality” look and feel. I would have no reservations displaying this unit at any location. In my home the unit is in a corner of the dining room.2. The unit seems to keep a very accurate internal temperature. It rarely strays from the set temperature except for when the door is opened.3. The unit makes effective use of the space it occupies, and I find no wasted space. What is not needed for the compressor, control, and display components is used as storage area for the wine bottles. Very nice design considerations when assembling all the components. It seems to be the most optimized size for the number of bottles that it chills. Kudos to the designers!4. The wine cooler has a door lock which can be used when desired. It is well designed, works nicely, and is not obtrusive. The wine cooler door lock is located at the bottom of the door and is barely recognizable. It is hidden from view and does not add or detract from the aesthetics of the unit whether used or not.One would think that if a wine cooler looked appealing, could easily be secured, fit in the available space, and kept the wine at the correct temperature all would be good; and the unit should be given a 5-star review. Unfortunately, this is all that I considered when looking for a wine cooler and I did not consider other things which I would later learn were especially important to my satisfaction of the unit.What I dislike:1. The LED display which indicates the set and operating temperature is extremely bright. It will illuminate the room it occupies when dark and can be very distracting. There is no reason for this display to be this bright, but it is not vastly different from other electronics which use similar LED technology. I found that I needed to attach a light diffuser to the LED display panel to reduce the brightness to an acceptable level. Of course, this detracted from the aesthetics of the unit, but made the nighttime illumination acceptable. If this unit were in a rarely used room this may not be an issue for you.2. The compressor comes on frequently and is noisier than I expected. It seems like the temperature control system for this unit is not designed properly. The compressor comes on for 10-20 seconds every 1-2 minutes. Perhaps there is not adequate hysteresis between the set and operating temperatures or perhaps there is not adequate insulation in the cooled chamber. Whatever the cause, the constant noise from the compressor is distracting and I am concerned about the longevity of the system given the frequent actuations. Again, if the unit were in a rarely used room this may not be an issue unless it is impacting reliability. Other units I have owned never cycled this frequently.3. The internal light is really just to provide ambiance when viewed from the outside. It is too dim for older eyes to read the wine bottle labels if there is no assistance from external lights. The brightness of the internal light needs to be improved if it is to be useful for something other than ambiance. Perhaps have two settings for the internal light – ambiance and full illumination.I really want to like this unit because it looks genuinely nice in my dining room, but I feel there are several features which need to be addressed before it is a perfect fit and becomes a 5-star unit. Although there is a lot to like about this cooler, the dislikes are really starting to annoy me and I fear they will cause me to return the unit before weeks end.

Title: Stylish and working as a champion
Review: I am really enjoying my wine cooler, it is only been a couple of weeks, but so far is working like a champion,, temperature flows between 41 - 44 degrees, but really loving it. Very satisfied with this wine cooler.I used to have a different wine cooler, but I really was very dissatisfied with it, it was a New Air, it never cooled properly, (it did not have a compressor, it was a different system ). but now that is going to the trash

Title: Would be a great product if it worked
Review: Bought this fridge to replace a 4 year old Ivation (sold by the same company and made in the same Chinese Sweatshop) that was pretty much on its last legs.Box arrived looking fine outside, but all the styrofoam packing was destroyed. I removed the unit (no damage), let is stand for 3 hours and plugged it in. It ran fine, was reasonably quiet and seemed to do its job. I set the thermostat to 48 degrees. When it hit 48 degrees, the display bounced back to 70 and kept cooling. The inside temperature was 35 degrees and the unit was still cooling!I took a look around back and saw the problem: the large pipe coming out of the compressor was never insulated and the thermostat coil was never bundled with it (see pictures of old unit - insulated and new unit - not insulated).Horrible quality control! I contacted Amazon. They cheerfully set up a pickup and a replacement. Unfortunately, because all the styrofoam packing was broken, I had to carefully glue the pieces together to be able to pack it up.I have very little faith in the replacement. Unfortunately, most of the wine fridges, dorm refrigerators, kegerators, etc. are made in the same Chinese sweatshops. The next step up is a commercial unit. Those run in the thousands!BTW, I contacted Schmecke. Absolutely no response.

Title: Good Starter Wine Refrigerator
Review: The one important thing with wine coolers is stable temperature. It is the shifting temps that spoil wine. The Schmecke 28 bottle wine refrigerator has had a stable 55 degree temperature so far. It is a little noisier than I expected, but all compressor coolers make some noise. It holds a decent amount of wine at 28 bottles on metal racks. I prefer the wood racks, but you can't have everything and a low price also. For the money, it is an excellent choice for keeping your wine aging safely. The only knock I have is that I wish here was a way to turn off the exterior temperature light. It is bright.

Review: El refri no tiene problema, enfría a 11*C, no es ruidoso, tiene buena capacidad de botellas, y la posibilidad de echar llave, me da tranquilidad para comprar botellas más caras, sin que sean consumidas "por error". Además me gusta mucho por que quedó perfectamente empotrado en mi cocina, como mandado a hacer...
