Consumer Critiques

I couldn't obtain any reviews on this particular item from Cuisinart, so it looks like I could possibly be the 1st. There appeared to be a lot of dissatisfaction with their 8-space single temperature unit, so I opted to devote alot more to get extra bottle space and go for the dual zone. I've had it for three weeks now and it's wonderful for my requirements and is working beautifully. I drink largely cabernets and sav blancs, so those bottle styles fit without having scraping. I have a chardonnay bottle that I had to turn around and spot head 1st so the bottom of the bottle is what is showing, but at least it operates. It is quiet - if you lean in closely, you can hear a soft whirring fan, but otherwise, quiet as a mouse. It is placed on a countertop of a built-in unit in my little condo living space, so it's in a quite open space and has space to breathe. There is a drip-tray that slides in the bottom and I've checked for water and haven't seen any. It chilled rapidly - I have the white zone set to 40 and the red zone set to 63 and am particularly happy with the temperature really feel of the bottles and the wine when I remove and serve. It looks actually cool at night with the lights on, but I mainly keep them off. Lastly, I do use a Vacu-Vin cork oftentimes and have located that I am able to re-seal a bottle, place in the unit and close the door. (The Vacu-Vin cork adds length to the bottle, but the glass in the doors is mounted so that there's room.) If I come up with anything else, I'll update this evaluation, but I have to say I am happy with my purchase and having enjoyable keeping it stocked!

After just three months of use, a single side of the unit stopped operating. Following talking to Cuisinart they stated they would replace the unit but we would have to pay to ship the old unit back and to ship the new unit to us. This tends to make ordering web based much less and less appealing.
