Our verdict

A roomy built-in cooler for an island or home bar that holds wine and beer behind a locking door. One zone means every bottle shares a temperature, which falls short for mixed red and white storage.

Overview

Sliding under a kitchen counter or into a home bar run, this built-in single-zone cooler chills wine and other drinks behind a locking glass door. A compressor with forced air cooling moves cold air across wire shelves, and a button LED display handles the controls.

Built-in fit and large bottle capacity make it a strong candidate for an under-counter gap, adding a lockable, reversible-door chiller that also takes beer. A single zone means reds and whites share one temperature, and the listing does not give the temperature range.

Who it's for

Homeowners fitting out a bar or island get a locking cooler that holds wine and beer side by side. Collectors who age reds and chill whites at once need a dual-zone unit instead.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Built-in design for under-counter installs
  • Reversible door swings either way
  • Key lock on the glass door
  • Forced air compressor cooling
Cons
  • Single zone, one temperature for all bottles
  • Temperature range not listed
  • Heavy at 100 lb to position
  • Only 12 months of warranty coverage

Performance notes

Cooling comes from a compressor with forced air, which circulates chilled air through the cabinet so upper and lower shelves stay closer in temperature. Built-in units need room to shed heat, and the listing does not say where this one vents, so follow the install guide for clearances.

Frequently asked questions

Will wide or magnum bottles fit the Danby DWC057A1BSS?

The 60 bottle rating is based on standard 750ml bottles. Wider bottles take more room on the wire shelves, so the count drops, and the listing gives no shelf spacing.

Can the Danby DWC057A1BSS store beer?

Yes. The description says it holds most beer cans or bottles along with wine.

Can the door on the Danby wine cooler open from either side?

Yes. The door orientation is listed as reversible.

Is the Danby DWC057A1BSS dual zone?

No. It is a single zone unit with one section, so every bottle shares the same temperature.
