24 Inch Wine and Beverage Fridge, Wine Refrigerator Dual Zone Hold 20 Bottles and 78 Cans,Built-In or Freestanding Digital Touch Control

I’ve been using my Kalamera refrigerator for less than a month, and I couldn’t be happier with my purchase! This refrigerator is a game-changer, especially for anyone seeking a reliable and stylish appliance that performs exceptionally well. The most remarkable feature is its temperature control. My drinks, from sodas to wine, stay perfectly chilled. Additionally, I appreciate how quiet it is; you hardly notice it’s running!

So far I love my Kalamera KRC-150CB wine/soda cooler. It's pretty, fits nicely in my butler panty, cooled down and is maintaining the chill on my soda and wine, and the company has been great to work with. Take a look at the pictures - to me it looks great. Kalamera had said it needed a 24" space and it fit perfectly in it. I had to adjust how far back the carpet went so that it would sit level front to back and that seemed important so it would work quietly. I also had to make sure it wasn't pushed too far back so the doors would open and not hit the cabinets next to it. It is working very quietly and shuts off and sits silently once it cools down. Follow the instructions and I think you'll have success. You may notice the power cord still is running over the top of it. It is, but as soon as the outlet is working behind it then I'll pull it out and plug it in back there. No problem. I love the French Doors. They are beautiful and limit how much space is used in the depth of the Butler Pantry when they are open. I found online that Coke products like 38 degrees and Pepsi likes 40 degrees so I have Coke in the right and Pepsi in the left. I know it doesn't use all the space, but I am just putting whole 12-pack soda boxes on the shelves. They fit great except the bottom ones on each side that are actually half shelves. I do have wine bottles down there even though its not really the optimum temperature for them. It comes with wood shelves on one side for wine and plastic coated shelves for soda on the other. I'm really more interested in soda so I'm using the plastic coated ones and removed most of the wood ones. I did need one more short wood shelf and contacted the company at [email protected]. They were GREAT! Very responsive and got me one in the mail the same day for a very reasonable price. Thanks for the wonderful support Kalamera! Finally, there have been comments online here about short life problems. While that can happen I have nothing to believe this isn't going to be a great product. I could certainly see how there would be issues if the directions aren't followed (such as keeping it upright for 24 hours before installation) I have no indications so far that this is going to be anything but a joy. I will update my review if that changes. Should add that the price of this was less than half what the appliance company wanted to charge for another manufacturer's product. We didn't want to pay more than the cost of a full-size refrigerator for this and Amazon's price was great. It came right away and the packaging was great so it was well protected.

Arrived well packed and no damage. I let it set the requisite 24 hours to let the freon settle and then plug it in. I noticed after a couple of days that it didn't seem to be cooling the cans down to the same level as the thermostat setting. So I bought a inexpensive interior refrigerator thermometer. And I was right... It doesn't cool properly. As you can see on the picture The thermostat was set to 38° f while the actual temperature measured by the thermometer was 44° f some days it would go as high as 48 to 50° f. This is hugely disappointing considering the unit is otherwise well made. I noticed the number of reviews that had similar problems. There's no amount of customer support that can fix this so I ended up just returning it. Please also note that I bought the matching wine chiller as a bundled set deal from Amazon. I had the exact same problems with the wine chiller. And to boot, The size of the cabinets vertically is not the same between the two units even though they made by the same company and offered as a package deal. As you'll notice in the picture of both units I ended up having to put shims on the bottom made out of wood in order to get the top cabinet height the same. This is really poor quality on the part of the company..Kalamera. When you get two units as a bundled set and they both fail to cool properly and they don't even match sizewise, you know the company has some real problems.

Overall, this is a good unit that is extremely quiet, well built with solid shelves. Though not in the description that I read, if you remove the bottom shelf the bottom is molded to hold wine bottles. The shelves are close together so a standard 12 oz cans fit standing up and you can just barely get them in and out without pulling the shelf out. Would not work for the tall skinny 12 oz cans unless you lay them down. Obviously, you can rearrange the shelves at the expense of number of cans storage capacity. The good news is even with a shelf full of cans the shelf does not sag as seen on some other brands. My biggest complaint is that the unit cannot get to 32 degrees. The best I can get it to is 35 though the control is set to 32. The unit does shut off so it must think it is 32 degrees. Could be that the fans are located directly behind the control box. I tested this using two thermometers. one digital and one good old analog red line style. :-) They agree that the unit is 35 degrees no matter where I place them. On the plus side, the cooling is even enough that no area freezes like on my radiant cooling unit where items closer to the cold back plate freeze if they are non-alcohol soft drinks/beers. For the money it's a good unit just wish it could get to 32. Currently have it standing freestyle, but it is going to be built in soon. Will be interesting to see if the performance changes with reduced space around it for air.
