Key Features

Stores up to 28 bottles of your favorite wine
  • Thermoelectric cooling system operates quietly with less vibration than a compressor unit
  • Double-paned glass door offers extra insulation and UV protection
  • Digital display makes it easy to monitor the interior temperature
  • Internal soft LED light illuminates your wine without adding extra heat
Store your wine at the perfect temperature with this NewAir wine cooler. This thermoelectric wine cooler can store up to 28 bottles of your favorite wine on its 6 chrome shelves that slide out for your convenience. This wine fridge features a thermoelectric cooling system, meaning it draws warm air out of your cooler instead of pumping cold refrigerant vapor in. It does not have a compressor and has fewer moving parts, which means quieter operation and less vibration, preventing sediment build up that could potentially affect the taste of your wine. The double-paned glass door provides insulation as well as UV protection to your bottles. This unit has a push button control panel with a digital thermostat, which allows you to quickly and easily set the wine cooler to an accurate temperature that you desire between 54 and 66 degrees Fahrenheit. The interior LED light softly illuminates your collection without adding the extra heat of incandescent bulbs.

Excellent wine fridge for your home

I bought this wine fridge a little over a year ago and cannot be happier with it. The design is so beautiful, fits all my bottles of wine and keep them at the perfect temperature. I like to keep my red bottles at 62 degrees and it works amazing. Definitely recommended!

Good buy, deliver was a disaster, returning

I ordered 28 bottle wine fridge on May 8th online, arrived May 17th. In the middle of the night on May 22nd loud noise, flashing lights, stopped working. Thank God I purchased a warranty from Best Buy. Best Buy had another one shipped. Box arrive on May 28th at my doorstep, box badly damage. So done with this Newair product. After 10 calls and the right UPS and Best Buy department.....finally UPS will come and pick up damaged box on Tuesday, June 1st. Not even opening totally damage box. Called Best Buy Geek Squad for a pick up of the wine fridge that is not working. What you know they will also be coming Tuesday, June 1st as well. I currently have a broken wine fridge in my house waiting for pick up. This email from Newair is perfect. Only thing Newair can do for me at this point is accept the damage box coming your way and credit me back my money. I don't want anything else.

Nice interior blue light

I bought the unit at Lowes in January 2018. What attracted me to this model was the fit and stainless steel finish. The interior blue light adds a nice touch.

Less than 3 years and it's shot.

Less than 3 years, and the fan is shot. The cost of the repair is not worth it. Going in the trash. This design is discontinued anyway ...

Sleek! Quiet! Perfect!

I have wanted a wine fridge for a long time and reviewed many models before selecting this one. It looks beautiful in its location. It runs quietly and cools the beverages perfectly.

Nice, BUT:

Have had this now for 6months. Looks great, very quiet, excellent temperature control. BUT: The shelves are all probably about 3/8" to 5/8" too close to one another. Getting 28 bottles in and out is very, very nerve-wracking. It's just too tight. If you want less wine @ temperature, then just remove a shelf and adjust the others. But for 28, it's very precarious...

Awesome Fridge

I've had this unit for a while now. It runs great and it's quiet. It's well built and looks good as part of my bar set up.

When will my item arrive?

Once shipped, items usually arrive within 3-5 business days. While UPS and FedEx are our carriers for smaller items, be aware that larger items and orders are shipped via freight. The freight process is a bit more complicated than what we've all come to expect for small parcels, so it's important that you're prepared and understand what's required of you well before delivery day.

  • Most freight products ship on a pallet
  • Some carriers will call to schedule a delivery window, while others will deliver the shipment to a reasonably accessible location closest to your residence (their goal is to deliver as near a garage door as they can).
  • We'll specify which process you can expect in your shipping confirmation email.

For carriers that schedule delivery appointments:

Carriers that schedule delivery appointments require you to be home for delivery and provide your signature. The delivery is made with a semi-truck with lift gate services, and the shipment is dropped off at the curb. If you authorize the shipping company to leave the delivery without a signature, BBQGuys can't be held responsible for damages that occur during delivery. As complicated as this process may seem, we've only scratched the surface here — please review our detailed guide to freight delivery so there are no surprises when a freight shipment heads your way.

For carriers that deliver without an appointment:

Carriers that deliver without an appointment don't require you to be home or set up a delivery window, and you aren't required to sign for the pallet(s). Instead of scheduling an appointment, arranging your schedule to be home for the delivery, and signing to confirm receipt, you can sit back and let your items come to you. If you're home at the time of the drop-off, you can request the driver place your delivery in the garage; if you're out of the house, the driver will leave it near the garage or doorstep.

$49 Flat-Rate Shipping

Anything under $49 ships at one low price. If your order increases, your shipping stays the same!

30-Day Returns

Return all new, unused, and unassembled items in their original packaging, and we'll give you a full refund minus the cost of the original AND return shipping.

No Restocking Fee

Most companies charge a restocking fee. We just don't do business that way.
