Avanti Wine Cooler Review


Whether you need to store 8 or 160 bottles of wine, Avanti has a way to help you keep your wine chilled.

If you enjoy wine then you already know that it needs to be kept at the proper temperatures, humidity and kept away from sunlight and ultraviolet light and too much vibration in order to let it age to enjoy its full flavor. If you are a wine connoisseur there's a good chance that you have several to hundreds of bottles in your home. Properly storing your wines in an Avanti wine cooler may be what you are looking for.

Avanti has a range of single and dual temperature zone coolers. Whether you need to store a half-dozen bottles, or more than 150, Avanti has more than 20 systems that can keep your wine chilled and stored properly.

If you plan on keeping both white and red wines, you will need the dual zone coolers. If you only need to store one kind of wine, a single zone unit will work well. For most home collectors, who will have 150-160 bottles, a dual zone system will work best. This is because it will allow you to store both red and white wines within the same cooler.

If your collection of wines will be more than 150 bottles, you may wish to consider several coolers. A smaller unit could be placed in your kitchen for use every day; while other, larger systems could store wine longer term, or simply hold the wine until you bring them into the main area where they will be consumed.

This model has no vibration and it provides a Thermopane reversible glass door so that you can see your wines without having to open the door.

They also offer multiple sizes and models up to string more than 160 bottles in a single zone model, like the Model WR682SS-1 160 Bottle Wine Cooler. This offers one-touch digital control for Red, White and sparkling Wine, Electronic display to monitor the system, internal lighting, built in fan for temperature control and a security lock to help protect your investment.
