Fridge Freezable Can Cooler Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My husband must have his beer ice cold. The Fridge keeps his beer cold and he says even makes it colder. My sister used one for her soft drink at our house and got right on her PC to buy some. We keep 6 of them in our freezer at all times so they are ready to go and then we just rotate them back to the freezer when we take a new beverage. My step-mom was complaining about a not so cold beer at a restaurant last weekend, so I'm online to buy her a set. They work. The only downside is that they don't fit in my car's cup holders when I want a soda for the road.

Curtis FRW656 46-Bottle Wine Cooler Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The good news is it's quiet. The bad news is it is a bad deal for only holding a bit over 20 bottles. Even their picture shows it with only about 20 bottles..Which of course I didn't notice until I wrestled with the wine bottles for about half an hour and decided to look online. Note their user manuual shows it holding 46. Unless they are talking about the single serving bottles the airlines serve, it's just not true. And the frustrating part is, it's just not worth it to return it. So now I have a really big, awkward fridge that only holds about 20 bottles. Oh, and last the temperature dial only does 'min-max' temp instead of real degrees.

Waring Pro PC100 Wine Chiller Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The problem isn't with the unit taking a long time to chill a bottle of wine, the problem is that it doesn't chill a bottle of wine.
I put a bottle of room temperature Chablis in, and selected Chablis from the list of white wines. The unit said it would chill it to 46 degrees, and indicated that the starting temp was 77. That was my first concern, because the bottle was room temperature, and room temp was 70. The unit took more than 30 minutes to get the bottle to the desired temp (according to the units thermostats), but when I opened the bottle, the wine was probably a bit warmer than a pinot should be served at. I turned the unit off, placed the bottle back in (using the accompanying sleeve both time, btw), and this time the starting temp read 61 degrees. In other words, it disagreed with itself...
Soo...I chilled it again, for another 20 minutes, and upon reaching 46 (again) the bottle was no cooler than it was before.
I don't understand how these are selling. They are probably good for bringing room temp reds down to the appropriate serving level, but this simply does not chill white, rose, or sparkling wines to the desired temperature. So it's great, I suppose, for someone who doesn't have a wine refrigerator, or a cellar, but who wants to drink red wines at the appropriate temperature. It's terrible for anything other than that.
This is as disappointed as I've ever been with a product before.

Cooper Cooler HC01-A Rapid Beverage Chiller, White and Grey Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)When I saw this, I knew right away from my college beer drinking days that this would work very well. We used to buy crushed ice and lay hot beer cans on their side and spun them until cold. The drawback: you had to spin them yourself. What I wouldn't have given to have access to a device that provided the fastest and most effective cooling possible.
Pros:
-Works very well (but only if you load as much ice as possible)
-Works very quickly
-Small
-Handles cans, beer bottles, wine bottles, and even odd shaped stuff like juice boxes that you don't want to spin
-A surprising number of settings to suit your taste
-Did a lot of research. As of 8/1/2006 could not find anything even remotely close to this good.
-Spinning IS NOT shaking, so soda and beer do not explode
-Uses ice, not a liner that needs 8 hours of freezer time, both convenient and a space saving option
-Items are not submerged under icy water like other competing units, so you don't have to dredge for your drink in cold water
Cons:
-No power off switch... in standby you get flashing lights on the front which is annoying
-Relatively loud, does not appear to have slow roll option to reduce noise
-Paper labels on wine bottles get beaten up pretty badly, bits of paper come off (bottle becomes unsightly)
-Draining water requires you to unplug at the wall and carry to a sink (unlike my espresso maker which has a lift out chamber)
-Requires a power source, not portable unless you are handy and build a battery with gusto (which I can do, but most wouldn't try)
-Wine bottles tend to drip a little on the counter as the cold ice water is pumped on them, so we have to put a trivet or thick potholder under the front two feet to help discourage dripping on the counter.
I am considering adding a "roll" switch so that I can turn the unit off without unplugging which is an easy modification anyone can do (one a scale of 1 to 10, it's a 1, or really cheap and easy).
Bottom line: Despite cons, I recommend this item. Had it a year and still going, popular at parties.
