Cons

  • Can Not Adjust Shelving

We were concerned about buying this relying on only a picture and comments, but we are very happy with our purchase. It is very sleek and looks so nice next to our new bar area. It is very quiet and fits in very nicely with our cabinets.

the 170 is perfect for me

 
5.0

Pros

  • Attractive Design
  • Precise Temperature

Cons

  • Can Not Adjust Shelving

Best Uses

I wiped down the inside of the as instructed. There was a chemical smell for a few days but it went away. The shelves are about the same size. One is narrow but fits reisling bottles easily. One is wider and holds very large bottles. You can remove the shelves. It makes cleaning more manageable. I selected the 170 size so I could spread my wine out and arrange my wine. I didn't fill the cabinet. Its perfect for me and looks great. I leave the blue lights on always.

We researched tens of other products and kept coming back to this one. We were prepared for the unit to be loud and it is not. We were prepared for the two temperatures to vary too much. They do, but only by one or two degrees. The only negative so far is that the shelves could have a little more separation - pulling out one shelf can pull out the shelf above it.

This is a great wine cooler. We're very happy with it. A quick word of caution...unless you are very tall, the top shelf, and maybe even the top two shelves, will be totally useless. They're too high!

Fairly satisfied

 
3.0

Pros

  • Attractive Design
  • Adjustable Shelving
  • Not bad for a starter

Cons

Best Uses

Bottom line, it's a pretty good deal for the price. It's not the quietest unit out there, but it's not overly loud either. Most importantly, you will NEVER get 170 bottles in this thing. Even saying it is a 170-capacity unit is very, very misleading. That said, if all your bottles are cabernet bottles, you should be able to fit appx. 150-160...don't expect more.

Attractive Design with some flaws

 
4.0

Pros

  • Price
  • Attractive Design

Cons

  • Can Not Adjust Shelving
  • Temperature Adjustment

Best Uses

I have a small home so I have this cellar in my home office space for longer term wine storage. I have a beautful credenza-style cellar in my living room for everyday use. The Infinity cellar is both attractive and functional for the price and amount it stores. I like the LED display of temperatures that you can easily see through the door. I wish the unit was a bit deeper as so many wineries use the tall bottles. The feature that perplexes me the most is the requirement to set the temperature in the lower section higher than the upper. As warm air rises, this is counterintuitive and, I think, contributes to the difficulty of properly regulating the temperature in both sections. I had to experiment a lot with settings to get the temp ranges I want as the settings do not correspond to the resulting temperatures. On a related note, the deeper shelf which works for champagne is the top shelf of the bottom section, in spite of the fact that champagne should be kept at the lowest temperature.

NIce design and size, somewhat loud

 
4.0

Pros

  • Attractive Design
  • Precise Temperature
  • Great size

Cons

  • Shelves warping
  • Shelves too close
  • Loud

Best Uses

  • Kitchen

Overall we are really enjoying our N'finity Cellar. It's been a great convenient size and holds the temps just right. Design gets kudos from everyone who visits. The unit is quite loud when cycling, however, so take note of that when considering placement. Also, more flexible space for non-standard size bottles would be a big plus since many of our bottles fall into that category. Lastly, we've noticed a little bit of sagging with some of the shelves, which has made pulling out shelves below a little hard.

Bad shelving

Pros

  • Attractive Design

Cons

  • Will not store 170
  • Can Not Adjust Shelving
  • Does not hold pinot

Best Uses

  • Kitchen

This wine fridge looks nice, however the shelves are too close to each other to store wine. For the price it is not a bad deal, adjustable shelves would make it a great deal.

Cons

Best Uses

I read the reviews before I purchased this, so it is no surprise that the unit doesn't hold nearly the bottles listed in the capacity. The temperature has stayed within a 3-4 degree range. I wish it would have more storage for Pinot bottles - it really is a limitation that the engineers should be able to solve.

Decent Starter

 
2.0

Pros

  • Attractive Design

Cons

  • Can Not Adjust Shelving
  • Loud
  • Too Small

Best Uses

  • Dining Room

I just got this unit as second unit for extra storage. While the design and lighting is very nice, I do not like the shelving and its louder than the Eurocave. The shelves are m biggest disappointment. Larger bottles do not fit on the shelves as they are formatted. The shelves are also difficult to remove. You will not get 170 bottles of higher end wine in this unit. While its a decent starter unit, I would spend the extra money if you can afford it and go with the Eurocave. Probably what I should have done.

Nice quality but bottle count is wrong

 
4.0

Pros

  • Well made
  • Attractive Design

Cons

  • Pinot bottles don't fit
  • Can Not Adjust Shelving

Best Uses

  • Personal Wine Storage

We were excited to order a product that seemed to fit our needs especially with all the shelves able to pull out and the number of claimed bottles it could store for the price. Upon delivery we were pleased with the look and apparent quality but ended up disappointed when we struggled to get our pinot noir bottles to fit in the unit. They will fit only on a few shelves. This also happened with bottles that were similar in size to champagne bottles. They tend to rub and get caught on the shelves above them when trying to role the shelves in and out. We were quite heartbroken on this discovery. Why couldn't the manufacturer add two or three inches to the overall height of the unit to space out the shelves an extra 1/8 of an inch the pinot bottles need! Although we choose 'Recommend to a friend' we would say the recommendation is with reservations. Now you know.
