Once you get the hang of wine collecting and you realize that there are more varietals and vintages available than your puny wine cooler with a 25-bottle capacity can handle, you will want to upgrade to a much bigger wine cooler. Of the different large-capacity wine refrigerators, the Avanti WC681BG Wine Refrigerator is one worth checking out.
Barely a hair’s breadth below six feet, with approximately 24 inches width and 27 inches depth, this Avanti wine refrigerator offers enough storage space for 166 wine bottles. These bottles rest on 16 wooden shelves with a front trim that can be pulled out for convenient storage and retrieval.
Your collection can be displayed through the tempered dual pane glass door. With a little help from an LED lighting system in the interior, a dramatic view of the bottles can be created. In addition to this role, the glass door also performs the more functional task of keeping harmful ultraviolet rays from your bottles. Finally, its two glass panes insulate the interior from warm air thus helping maintain interior temperatures.
Temperature levels in the refrigerator are brought down by a cooling system utilizing a compressor with a refrigerant. This can be as low as 40°F for your dessert wines or 65°F for your rich and intense reds. The desired level is set through an adjustable thermostat control that features touch buttons and an LED temperature display. For a quick adjustment, you can use the one-touch control buttons for red, white, or sparkling wines.
The frame enclosing the glass door has the same black color as the cabinet. It includes a door handle, also in black, for easy opening. The door is field reversible which means that anybody with basic DIY skills can reset the door’s opening direction. A security lock is fitted at the bottom of the cooler to safeguard your collection.
