Great! Just what I expected and cost much less that the one it replaced.

Head to Head Against Wine Enthusiast Silent 21

Having recently acquired a Wine Enthusiast Silent 21 Bottle Dual Zone Wine Refrigerator with Curved Doors and since I already own the Whynter WC-241, I was excited by the prospect of a head to head comparison cooler review in the same price/feature bracket. So what I'll do is do a side by side comparison based on product features and then provide an overall declaration. ====Storage Capacity==== Right out of the Gates, the Whynter comes out swinging with an extra 3 bottle advertised capacity, while the WE Silent 21 clocks in a bit lower. WE silent 21 also has a much larger lower deck which is good if you have more white than red wines or vice versa. The steel rack inserts on the Whynter do not accommodate larger bottles, so I removed a few, and I also experimented with using the bottom section for a beer cellar for my 700 ml craft beer bottles. Stored upright, I was able to fit 15 bottles below for an overall storage capacity in the Whynter of 27. Winner: Whynter ====Design Features==== The Whynter is fairly boxy and slightly larger (about 1" on all dimensions) with attractive blue LED temperature indicators and touch control. The WE Silent 21 features a curved case design and more flexible storage layouts. WE Silent 21 has similar indicators and also includes the benefit of interior LED lights to help you navigate your personal wine cellar. I think the industrial designers over at WE paid a bit more attention to those little details which pushed it over the edge for me. Winner: Wine Enthusiast ====Value==== At about $80 less with more configuration options, slightly wider temperature range, and ultimately more capacity the Whynter comes out ahead as the right buy unless aesthetics and product design are a consideration...ie: if you're storing this in a prominent place or need the extra LED interior lighting. ====Temp Consistency & Energy Use==== I monitored both over a 24 hour period with an indoor ambient temperature swing between 59 degrees in the morning and 85 degrees in the house during the hottest part of the day. I noticed no fluctuation in either. Both claim 120 Volt usage, but I haven't run extensive energy efficiency tests on both units. Perhaps to come later. Winner: TIE ====Noise/Sound==== Both are fairly quiet; the Whynter operates at a low periodic hum, while the WE Silent 21 is not so silent. Like other reviewers I did notice some occasional clicking/whirring sounds. Winner: Whynter Bottom line: The WE Silent 21 is nice, and certainly prettier, but the real value lies with the Whynter which provides a bit more bang for the buck, or as we in the wine world say, "QPR" (quality price ratio).

Wine bottle perfection

Love this frig. Fits nicely in corner of my kitchen and blends well with all the other appliances. Roomy for many bottles.

Works great, keeps wine at perfect temp. Loveit.

Wine cooler works great

Worked perfectly. Nice cooler.

So far, I dig it

This wine frog seems to work well. I particularly like the dual zones for white and red wines. The temperature seems to keep stable (it is summer and super hot right now, so this is a plus). The back of the fridge had a little ding causing the back corner to not be flush with the rest of the body - likely happened in delivery. I'm not particularly concerned about that, it works well and is an attractive addition to my decor.

Perfect for us. Reasonably priced, very quiet and holds temperature in both red and white sections.

Whynter Wins!

Works great with 2 zones for red and white wines.

Nice unit!!

Unit arrived with no dents, scratches, etc... unboxed, set up, set the upper/lower temps, put bottles in and has maintained a consistent 54 degrees.

Super Quiet!

It is VERY QUIET! Works well, no issues so far.
