More from this brandAll NutriChef freestanding wine cellarsOverview
A freestanding single zone cooler, NutriChef's 28 Bottle Wine Fridge holds up to 28 standard bottles, about 79 liters, in a 33 by 16 by 17 inch black cabinet. It suits anyone wanting a dedicated wine chiller for a kitchen, office, or den without built-in installation.
Because it runs one temperature zone rather than two, the whole cabinet sits at a single setting between 41°F and 64°F, so reds and whites share a compromise temperature instead of each getting an ideal range. That tradeoff is common for coolers this size and keeps the unit narrow enough to fit spots a dual zone model would not.
- 28 bottle capacity, up to 79.29 liters
- 41°F to 64°F adjustable single zone
- Freestanding 33 x 16 x 17 inch black cabinet
- Digital touch control panel with interior light
Who it's for
Fits someone starting a first wine collection or wanting a countertop-to-floor cooler for casual storage rather than a serious cellar. Collectors who keep reds and whites at different serving temperatures at the same time will find the single zone limiting.
Pros and cons
- Holds 28 bottles in a compact 33 x 16 x 17 inch cabinet
- Digital touch controls for temperature and interior light
- Wide 41°F to 64°F range covers chilled and cellar temperatures
- Single zone means one temperature for the whole cabinet
- No compressor type or noise-level spec beyond general marketing
Performance notes
The digital touch panel sets the cabinet anywhere from 41°F to 64°F and also controls the interior light, so the unit can tune toward white-wine chill or cellar temperature depending on what is currently stored. The glass door has an airtight seal and the shelving is polished chrome, which helps keep light and vibration away from the bottles.
