Haier 30 Bottle Wine Cooler BC112G

Pros: Fairly inexpensive; attractive design; quiet operation.
Cons: Still uses electricity; glass door is attractive, but permits light into the storage area.

Last week, I visited some wineries in California's Santa Ynez Valley (Santa Barbara area). I tried about three dozen different wines, and came home with about three dozen bottles.

Not really having a good storage solution, I decided that it...

Pros: pretty and cheap
Cons: will ruin your wine

I bought 2 of these 6 months ago and after noticing a degradation in flavor of the stored wine in both, I realized that one unit has fluctuated as much as 9 degrees during it's cycle. The other fluctuates 6 or 7 degrees. As we all know, [but the manufacturer obviously doesn't or doesn't care] temperature fluctuation kills wine. One case was completely ruined and all bottles were taste degraded.
