The 7 Best Wine Coolers

If you are a wine enthusiast who likes to drink and collect the most exquisite bottles of wine, having a wine cooler at home almost becomes a necessity. However, choosing the best wine coolers can often be a hassle. You don’t want to go through a dozen wine coolers before finding the one that’s most suited for your needs.

To make things easier for you, we have tried and tested a bunch of wine coolers and come up with a list of some of the best wine coolers you’ll find in the market currently. So without much further ado, here are the best wine coolers of 2021.

1. Ivation 8-Bottle Thermoelectric

This wine cooler by Ivation has a sleek design that is simply gorgeous. It is also very compact and will fit right into your kitchen counter or the space next to your recliner. However, don’t get fooled by the compact design. This high-end wine cooler performs very well and can comfortably fit up to 8 bottles of wine – sometimes even more, depending on the size of the bottles. So if you’re looking for a wine cooler that is tiny enough to fit anywhere but also does its job well, this unit by Ivation is perfect for you.

2. Haier 12-Bottle Dual Zone

A bit larger than the average wine coolers, this unit by Haier is perfect if you need a larger storage capacity. It has two storage compartments whose temperatures can be adjusted independently. The upper compartment can be kept between 46-66 degrees Fahrenheit, while the lower one can be kept between 54-66 degrees Fahrenheit. It also comes with 6 full-width chrome storage racks. The curved door and smoked rack give it a stylish look. If you have a tight budget but don’t want to compromise on the quality and space, this one from Haier is perfect for you.

3. Whytner WC-241ds 24-Bottle Dual Zone

If you something with an even higher capacity, it can’t get any better than this. This unit by Whytner measures at 20.5” long, 14” wide, and 33.5” high. However, this relatively small unit can comfortably store up to 24 bottles of wines. It has two different zones. The upper zone has a temperature setting of 54-66 degree Fahrenheit and the lower zone has a range of 46-66 degree Fahrenheit – both of which have a 12-bottle capacity. It is very spacious for its size. In addition to that, the design, insulation, and protective smoked tempered glass are all high quality. All in all, this is perfect if you want to store and showcase a large collection of wines.

4. Ivation Red and White Countertop Cooler

Not only is this one of the best wine coolers the industry has to offer, but it also solves one major issue that most wine coolers have: noise. While most wine coolers you’ll find vibrate frequently (causing them to continuously produce an annoying noise), this unit by Ivation runs the system without the faintest bit of noise or vibration. This allows you to relax right next to the wine cooler while letting your wine settle nicely inside. This energy-efficient thermoelectric has the storage capacity for up to 18 wine bottles and is slick enough to fit in anywhere you want, even right next to your bed if that’s your style.

5. EdgeStar 18-Bottle

This is arguably the most compact yet efficient wine cooler you can get your hands on. It has a slim design that lets you store up to three bottles per shelf, housing 6 shelves in total. It doesn’t take much space and can easily slide beneath almost any countertop. It also boasts a slew of impressive features, including a strong circulation fan, a built-in carbon filter, and even a UV protected glass door that protects your wine from premature aging. It is an ultra-slim, space-efficient design that is perfect for most spaces.

6. NewAir Premier Gold Series – 116-Bottle

Looking for a large wine cooler that can comfortably store a few dozen wine bottles? Whether you regularly host large parties with a lot of booze or like to collect as many bottles of wine as possible, it doesn’t get better than this large dual zone wine cooler from the NewAir Premier Series. It features 11 strong shelves, each of which is capable of holding up to 11 bottles.

It also comes with an easy-to-use and highly functional control panel with four different temperature displays – in both Fahrenheit or Celsius. This may be a bigger investment than most other wine coolers and will take up more space, but it is great if you’re really enthusiastic about wine and wine collections.

7. Avanti 12 Bottle Thermoelectric Counter Top Wine Cooler

This unique wine cooler can store up to 8 bottles vertically and four bottles horizontally, giving it an interesting design to look at. This unique design allows you to store a lot of bottles in a relatively small space.

It also features a digital LCD display that allows you to keep tabs on the internal temperature of the cooler and adjust it easily. The curved glass door adds to its stylish design. This unit by Avanti is perfect if you’re looking for something basic that does its job without any fancy add-ons.

Before deciding which wine cooler to buy, make sure to evaluate your needs and know what you’re expecting from the wine cooler you purchase. This will help you make a much more informed decision that you won’t end up regretting later on.
