What's great about it: Looks great, fits great, plenty of space
This GE fridge works great to display four bottles of your favorite wine, and the wire shelves work well for holding beer, pop, & water along with wine. I hope this model is as dependable as the first few months. It looks very classy in our newly finished bar and is extremely quiet. I would definitely recommend to anyone making a similar purchase - good brand name and the look cannot be beat.

What's great about it: Great combination of style and performance
What's not so great: I'm always going to say it could be a little cheaper, but I'm cheap
I'm the guy that will drive across town to save 3 cents on gas, so I ended up waiting about 6 months before purchasing this wine fridge hoping for a price dip. In the interim I kept checking out other brands and reading all the reviews but all the variables kept leading back to the GE Profile. Well, I finally got a Best Buy gift card for my birthday and a small price discount online helped me pull the trigger. Needless to say, the final product was well worth the wait. The "presentation" of the bottom rack is what initially led me to this wine fridge. Using history as my guide, I've always had the mentality that if a product looks a lot better than the others then it must have inferior performance. So far that has not been the case. I will agree with the other reviews that the sound is very minimal and the overall temperature has been spot on. I slid this fridge straight into a built-in wine nook in our new house. Since it's located near the front entry every guest has complimented this fridge from the moment they see it. I even worked out a system with my wife to ensure she doesn't come home from work and start plowing into the expensive wines. The best ones start at the bottom and get cheaper as you go up. That way my four best wines are always showcased on the bottom rack to guard against the judgmental eyes of any passing wine snobs. This is a great wine fridge and I highly recommend it.

What's great about it: Great look and functionality
I wanted to purchase a wine cooler to keep some of the better bottles I had on hand at the right temp and also store the everyday bottles to drink. I came across this cooler at the recommendation of a Best Buy representative. It was what I was looking for as far as size and the pictures don't lie that it is very classy looking. We have it in our kitchen in a corner and it looks great. It's very quiet and keeps the temp perfectly. One complaint I do have is that there is a little play in the lock, the door will open slightly when pulled on and with two small children it's a little nuisance, but doesn't detract from the fact that I would buy it all over again. Another little issue is that the Pinot bottles are slightly too big....you can put them in, but they don't fit as nice as the other bottles.
This product has... A quiet design

What's great about it: Everything
My husband bought this for me for my birthday and I love it. The look of it is better than the picture. It is very quiet and keeps its temperature well. The racks are good but it makes it easier to just pull the wine bottles out rather than the rack especially if its full. I wanted one of these for a long time and I am glad we waited because we were able to a great wine cellar.

What's great about it: Attractive, Quiet, and Accurate
What's not so great: Racks don't slide out easily
I bought this unit after having to send back a wine cellar of a different brand that arrived in completely unsatisfactory condition due to poor packaging. To begin with this unit is well packaged so if you order it online you should have no problems with it arriving damaged like my other brand did. When we ubboxed the unit it was in terrific shape, only one tiny little flaw on a small front plastic piece but otherwise it looked great. From the minute we plugged it in it has been almost completely quiet, you can't hear anything standing right next to the cellar. And the switchable light inside the unit really makes a full cellar look fantastic. We've had the unit for over a week and today I checked the inside tempreture with a pretty accurate thermometer against the reading on the front panel. With the tempreture probe right in the middle of the unit the front panel read 54 degrees and the thermometer read 53 degrees. It has been consistent all day within a degree or two...pretty great for a unit at this price. The wine bottles fit comfortably on all rows but it is a tight squeeze on the top shelf. That said, if you force the top row a bit you can fit 29 bottles as advertised. However, sliding out the shelves with the wine rack full is extremely difficult and not worth the effort as you have to reach in with both hands and yank up the entire rack (heavy filled with bottles) and even then it will only pull out a small amount. Much easier to just pull the bottles out one by one to see the label. The door is reversable but it is not a simple task. All things considered, if 29 bottles is enough for you, and you don't need dual tempreture, this is an outstanding unit in terms of looks and overall performance.
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: it holds up wines that are open
What's not so great: can not be built in
I just remodel my kitchen and I placed an island in the middle of my kitchen with a special space for this wine cooler. My husband and I love wine, so we decided why not spend the money on this item. My contractor wanted to make the space very tight for the cooler to just fit in, but I asked him to please leave a liitle space between the cabinet and the cooler just in case we ever have to replace it. Turns out that my desicion was the best because when we opened the box there was a big sign that said not to be used as a built in! No one knew this at the store and there is no info about that in the Best Buy or GE website. If you are looking to place this cooler as a built in make sure you leave 2 1/2 inches all around it for ventilation.
It is beautiful, matches my other stainless appliances and it cools the wine great!
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: nice looking, large interior, tilted rack for open bottles
What's not so great: one leg already broke off
The only bad thing i can say about this item is that one of the rubber foots/feet came off when putting the item into its area. It was resolved by just putting the foot back where it broke from and it doesnt wobble or anything. I dont know if they sell replacement feet or not but it wasnt worth my time trying to get it fixed when i had it for 2 hours.
This unit is wonderful to look at and i enjoy the large size and the ability to look into the fridge and seeing all my wonderful bottles of wine! The racks only really hold the normal sized bottles and not the large ones or some of my champagne bottles. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE how open bottles can still be put back into the fridge without spilling or leaking (by being on its side), but that was the biggest selling point for me with this fridge. I looked for others and could not find any with this feature under 1k.
A drawback: the door doesnt quite seem to open far enough to easily allow the racks to come out. Not a big deal but could be for some people.
Another possible drawback: when the fridge was first turned on it kind of had a whining "fridge running" kind of noise that was louder than the normal fridge. That went away and now has the same sounds as my normal fridge does when it turns on to keep the temperature.
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: Nice, sleek, matches my appliances
What's not so great: Temp setting only for one type of wine
I bought this fridge and used it's measurements for custom made cabinets in our new home. I chose this one over the other GE models because of the size--I wanted it under the countertop and for the style. I didn't like the one with the wooden shelves because we chose a darker stain for our cabinets and I didn't want it to clash. It looks great in our kitchen and matches well with our other GE Profile appliances. There are temperature control buttons that you can set for either red or white. Unfortunately, you can't keep them both at their favored temperature. White is kept 10 degrees colder than red wine, 44 degrees vs. 54 degrees. I'm not much of an expert to know if this really makes much difference. But personally, I don't mind my red being chilled a little more. We've received compliments on this cooler from every guest we've had in our home.
I would recommend this to a friend!
